Hopefully, there are techies out there who can help you out.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06744355609233205207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6078896.post-56508254379444254322013-03-16T19:20:09.749+08:002013-03-16T19:20:09.749+08:00Thanks for all your info regarding Hypp, Jason, it...Thanks for all your info regarding Hypp, Jason, it's been very useful indeed, as have the comments - I've just moved here from the UK, and while I have slightly geekish tendencies, IPTV is something I haven't dealt with before. My D-Link homeplugs refused to work, but am now happily watching Hypp via Aztech, with only the occasional glitch... which I hope to solve with Powerline-Ace.<br /><br />However, I have a question that I'm hoping you might be able to answer. I've brought my rather unusual and very fab TV with me. It's a Sony and it's wireless - it has a separate box that you connect your equipment to via HDMI, and the screen is basically a wireless monitor with only a power line. I'm used to being able to control everything with one remote via IR blasters, so all my equipment is hidden and can be controlled through the TV. But I can't seem to get this to work for the Hypp STP. Is there any way to get the IR to work, or is the box just not capable of this? <br /><br />Cheers!<br /><br />Daisy<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6078896.post-19370250753212671392013-01-25T01:07:43.184+08:002013-01-25T01:07:43.184+08:00Hi Sekar,

Really interested in ...G'day Jason,<br /> Really interested in the Powerline Ace, I run a home network on WD PLAs, they work fine during the day but when my mains power switches on low tariff heaters and water heaters my PLA network falls over, it recovers when the the low tariff devices are switched off (they must generate heaps of noise in the my home power grid). According to the info from Cal-Lab these things they may be the answer to my problem. After trawling the web for info on these devices it appears that your blog is the most up to date source, therefore the question "Do you know or can you give an indication on a retail release date?" I did note that in one of the Cal-Lab summaries they reckoned it would be released near the end of this year (2012), any info welcome.

All you have to do is to assign a distinct private network name key to all homeplug units sharing the same network. You can manually assign the private network names using the utility software that come with the homeplugs.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06744355609233205207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6078896.post-10755415048637811652012-09-05T18:07:51.827+08:002012-09-05T18:07:51.827+08:00Hi Jason,

However my Homeplug setup is similar but additionally I have internet, IP Cams and streaming media all working and doing their own thing with varied success.<br /><br />A question, since Aztech Homeplugs work on syncing each unit to the base unit and auto assigning encryption/code within their perimeter, if I add another new Homeplug base to my setup and sync it to another new Homeplug client (another perimeter) .. will they get confused because they are essentially using the same electricity lines. For example one Homeplug pair for IPTV and another for extending wireless range but in the same area of the house.<br /><br />In theory this will work, I have yet to try it though.<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />ArifArif Yusofnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6078896.post-86513819455938866702012-06-29T00:44:38.849+08:002012-06-29T00:44:38.849+08:00Hi Gary,

I'll be updating this blog once I've received more info on the general market availability. <br /><br />On your last question, the first one is the one you'll need as it has a dedicated socket for the homeplug. A pair is required for best results.<br /><br />The second one is to complement the pair I've mentioned and is only needed if you have noise-generating appliances that have severe negative impact on the powerline signal.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06744355609233205207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6078896.post-24396987725537166772012-03-16T11:50:44.836+08:002012-03-16T11:50:44.836+08:00Dear Jason,

For the beginnig of using, it was working fine and indicator showing Green the whole time. After several day, the connection seems getting bad and start showing Red.<br />As I heard from my mum, normal day the IPTV work fine, sometime it freeze or got artifacts. But once i reach home and start downloading, the artifacts getting more and freezing occur more than usual. The indicator showing Red whole time.<br />I removed other applicance that connect from the homeplug and let it alone, yet it still the same and no improvement. <br /><br />For the PowerAce product, I got youtube check it out, it seems a good solution. I'm downloading games or movie all the time, so I hope it can help me solve the problem. I wanted to know where I can get it and how much does it cost? I saw you posted 2 of the product, which 1 do you recommend?Williamnoreply@blogger.com
