I have finally purchased rcryan Playon hd along with xtreamer 11N wireless antenna (Xtreamer.Net - WIFI USB Antenna). Please advise which wifi router I should purchase, so that I can stream online contents and contents from PC wirelessly. I have MTNL broadband connection.
@dheeraj: if you can share some tutorial/ tip and tricks for this player?

i am currently using the same setup u mentioned (playon hd mini with xtreamer antenna). I am stilling using my old netgear wgr614 router. any good G router is enough for streaming regular content wireless.
Streaming hd content wirelessly is where the problem starts. Am planning to get the netgear wndr3700 soon.
You can use ps3 media server on your pc to share the files. its really very easy & straightforward, dont think you will need a tutorial

well the thing is that this player has ultimate out of the box functionality... i follow the A.C. Ryan • Index page to stay upto beat with whats happening. a few things however a must do would be:
1. download and install and stay on hacked f/w v2901... i have posted link of this f/w on the forum in my signature... if u need a direct link, lemme know
2. ensure you use a static ip when configuring the network settings on the box... dhcp has been known to be a flop at times...
3. convert the internal hdd to ext3 format... gels better with the native linux that runs on the box.
4. then there is this ordeal of loading optware to turn this box up a notch... all will happen... one at a time
yup... a good router makes a difference when it comes to streaming... quality of network... proximity from the router if using wifi... everything determines the media playback... if possible go for a wired lan connect. in that case, even a g router would suffice... nahin to you would need a nice high powered n router.stormblast said:
sharing and playing back media files from your computer on the pohd is perhaps the simplest of tasks to accomplish. first enable file and printer sharing for the drive/folder you have ur media on. then on the pohd settings, turn samba on. then on ur computer>network neighbourhood you would see the inetrnal drive pop up as shared. similarly on the network tab in the browser on pohd u can browse your networked computers and shared folders/drives... select and play anything u like

@dheeraj - which firmware would you recommend for the playon hd mini. if possible provide me with a link.
also is there any 5ghz wireless usb antenna compatible with the ac ryan hd mini.
thanks
also is there any 5ghz wireless usb antenna compatible with the ac ryan hd mini.

My software version i 7.0.6 r4318 ( I am using plyon HD and not mini). Should I still download and install and stay on hacked f/w v2901? I am unable to search for you in acryan forum!! Doe hacked firmware void the warranty and can it be replaced by official firmware whenever we ever want?
Well, as for the router thing, since I have xtreamer 11N antenna, should I go for N router ( eBay India: Belkin N150 Enhanced Wireless Router : save 47% OFF (item 160457011850 end time 15-Aug-2010 17:09:15 IST)) or G router will also work with this antenna. Recommendation on brand to stream from PC and from internet on TV through playon will be useful.
I am also facing the display issue with playon. Please advise on that also :: A.C. Ryan • View topic - Newly purchased playon!HD:: facing Display problem
@dheerajjotwani: Can we start another topic related exclusively for playon player?

well i would suggest you stick to the most recent official f/w released for the mini... what are your network statistics... distance b.w router and pohd, connectivity and quality of network... see i still use a 5 year old buffalo router about 15 ft away from the pohd hooked up with the acryan wifi dongle... havnt had issues with any stutter for HD 720/1080p mkvs... what doesnt run very well on wifi is the torrent client which is yet to come to mini...stormblast said:
i aint aware of any 5ghz dongle... i think the one shipping is 2.5ghz with 300mbps connectivity
--- Updated Post - Automerged ---
you can flash any f/w you want... whenever you want... v4318 is beta i think... now if u dont want to setup ftp/ transmission torrent etc on ur pohd then stick to v3815. nahin to d/l and isntall v2901 from my siggy on acryan....mohit1981 said:
follow my post above for determining the network reqmt... selecting a router will become easier then...
i just replied to your thread on acryan forums... with a few tips to resolve ur issues... and i dont mind starting a thread here... infact i would just start one...
