I retired from personal blogging in July 2008.

Wifi upgrade and DLink Media Lounge installed
Posted by rod@drury.net.nz in Old-blog-archives at 9:21 pm on Wednesday, 19 April 2006

Changed my aging home 802.11b (10MB) Wireless Access Point to 802.11g (54MB). Makes a real difference.

Also Scott installed the DLink Media Lounge tonight.  I know I could have used an XBox 360, but I’m just not a gamer. The unit is standard stereo component full width and depth but nice and thin.  Looks cool in the stack.

It was an easy setup, connecting it with Windows Media Connect.  The UI is as you’d expect from DLink. Not pretty but usable.  I just want to do Music and Photo’s so it’s ideal.

With MySky and this I’m off my Harmony Remote and back to Remote Control hell.  Need to see if I can consolidate back to the Harmony or at least back to just Harmony and MySky.

Comment: Thomas sent me a note on hooking the Harmony to the MySky remote - try looking for a Foxtel iQ (which is the same unit and I’m told same remote layout)
