Bill Gates, that lucky dog, got to demo the DLink HD wireless bridge at WinHEC. The router utilizes the 802.11n protocol and works within the 5GHZ spectrum. The device is actually two in one. One end attaches to a router and the other end attaches to a TV. This allows you to yank that signal from a media server and send it to your TV and home theater system.
“To provide Draft 802.11n wireless performance to an existing router, the DAP-1555 attaches to an Ethernet port and then sends the dual-band draft 11n signal throughout the home. Users can utilize two MediaBridge adapters for optimal performance by connecting one to the router and the second to an Ethernet capable device in the home entertainment center. The D-Link DAP-1555 can connect up to five devices — including game consoles, Digital Video Recorders (DVR) and Digital Media Adapters (DMA) — all at the same time.
Key Features and Benefits:
- IEEE 802.11n (draft 2.0), 802.11g, 802.11b, and 802.11a-compliant
- Xtreme N Duo technology for superior wireless performance
- MediaBand™ technology for an enhanced media experience
- Includes WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup™) for simple push-button wireless network configuration
- Supports secure wireless encryption using WEP, WPA™ or WPA2™
- 5-Port 10/100 switch
- UPnP™ support
- 24/7 advanced technical support and 1-Year limited warranty”
This could be a nice addition for folks.
