Actiontec - MyWirelessTV Wireless HDMI Kit

For the price of this I expected much better. It is nearly $200 and you dont really get what you pay for. The concept is awesome but this product falls short of that. Setup is fairly simply assuming you do things in the correct steps. The transmitter has to be installed before the receiver. Connection between the two takes longer than 2 minutes at times which is slow. If for some reason the connection is not establishing then you are given these sync buttons to retry connection. I've tried these and they don't always work. The easiest way I have found to make it work is to unplug both the transmitter and reciever and start over. Once working it does work fairly well. The lag is noticeable if the original picture is in the same room. Less than a half second. This depends on the distance between the transmitter/receiver. I found that they work best at less than 80 ft. No way near the 150 ft the box says it works. This is strictly HDMI. Wish it had the AV/RWY connection as well for older tvs. Considering there isn't much of an alternative I would purchase again for the application I am using it for but I do wish it was better. It falls short of my expectations. Nothing out there that is better yet though.

In our finished lower level we have a 5.1 stereo system and I wanted my laptop to play movies, videos, concerts, music thru the system and display on the 60 plasma TV. I have searched a long time reading all the reviews. No one has used the (Actiontec mywirelessTV) for this application. Picture quality was better on the TV than it is on the laptop. Sound transfers seamlessly. It is being used in a 750sq ft room; it’s not going through any walls or floors. It is a true plug n play, nothing extra to buy.

Good product, lets you watch TV in other rooms were you don't have a cable box. I wanted to be able to watch TV in bedroom without having to pay for.yet another cable box. I Hooked up transmitter to my DVR box and receiver to bedroom TV. The use of the remote blaster is a great idea. It lets you view the DVR box that I have on the first floor from second floor TV giving you full remote control function. The picture quality is great! My only complaint about product was that hooking up a scientific Atlantic box from TWC, requires a software update and calling the company to ship an extra cable, it is free though, they will send it out at no charge. Its just a matter of waiting for this cable. The unit does work on other stuff as well. While waiting for cable to arrive, I had my ps3 hooked up instead and it worked perfectly on that. Also tried it on bluray player and it worked and looked great.

For beaming TV into my garage without having to run cable, it works great. My house TV (Sony HX850) can't decode signals in 480P so I switched the transmitter to another TV/Cable box and that issue went away. The system needed firmware update which was easy to do. There was no owners manual in the box when I bought it but the manual is available on-line. I really like the reverse channel it has that allows me to operate the cable box from the garage location. Overall the system meets my needs and I am happy with the purchase. The package contains all of the cables you need so there is nothing more to buy to use the system. I did want to purchase an additional receiver but the Website states that they are not available and Best Buy does not have them either.

Good thing is its wireless, no need to drill holes or run wires to wherever you need a hdmi input. Easy to use straight out of the box. Just hook up and power up and you will be streaming video and sound in about ten minutes. Bad thing is the response time and video buffering isn't smooth when changing channels from the the primary source. I'd recommend this if you don't want to run wires or you don't want to hire someone to run wires and this is a quick, somewhat expensive fix.

Great HD picture. Interesting how (even though very infrequently) odd the action is that finally breaks the signal and requires a reset. More connection options would be nice as many homes still have RCA outputs and it would be nice to be able to avoid having to buy RCA to HDMI adapters or conversion cables just to use older sat.boxes or vcrs. This is a great product but if u don't have HDMI it is a little bit more $ & effort to make it work vs. the plug and play 5 minute set up with HDMI cables.

If you want to use one cable or satellite receiver to power other TVs and can'r run an hdmi cord, hers the solution. Good for about 30 feet, crisp clean picture and good sound. Wired is better and more reliable but this does work, although it does drop out occasionally.

I purchased this to stream tv to a bedroom without having to run wires and purchase an additional cable box. The instructions for setting up were easy to understand and MyWirelessTV works exactly as described. The picture and audio quality is very good. My only negative comment is I think the packaging and description is very misleading with regards to the remote control. They show pics of the remote and advertise that it has remote included. It is very misleading and has you thinking that remote will do anything like changing channels or volume or powering off and on. The remote is used for setup only and you will be lucky if you even need to use it at all. Overall this is a very good product and I would purchase again or refer to a friend.
