RE: Internet Media Tuner with Ethernet over Power

Out of the box, my new 807t unit sounds very good. I know it needs 40+ hours of break in but my first impression is it sounds great.

My tuner failed to connect to my wired network when I plugged it in. I plugged a computer into my Ethernet over power box and it worked perfectly so the problem was with the 807t. I checked all the settings and discovered the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) code was set to no. I changed it to yes and I was connected.

The Ethernet over power connection is working fine and I have had no problems. I can select stations from either the Internet or via the Frontier Silicon Radio Portal. This Portal allows me to build station groups such as classical, jazz, blues, etc. You log in and browse the site for the programs that you want, and then press select. Once you have made your choice, the stations you pick will be immediately displayed in the my favorites area on the home page and accessible through my 807t.

I do not know if the performance of my Ethernet over power connection is better than a wireless connection. It was very easy to install and I was able to use the wires already in my house. I would welcome comments on Ethernet over power vs. wireless.

How do the internet radiochannels sound?

Dear Hgeifman, I'm about to place an order for the MD809T.
Please let me know if you're happy with the quality of the product and especially its terrestrial FM signal replication.

Thank you and kind regards

Too many variables for there to be a conclusive answer as to which is best. It depends on each homes level of interference in the A/C wiring vs. the wireless environment. I've tried both in my home and wireless was far superior. I'm sure many others have had the opposite result.
