while i'm sure those do work, you need to be careful with them. I used a similar device (for a customer), and in testing it at our house, we came across these interesting points:

1. microwave oven causes interference
2. cordless phone caused insane interference
3. wireless router caused problems

and the quality was less than desirable even when all interference was removed. Wireless may not be the best idea. It's possible more expensive units might be less susceptible to simple interference. Sorry i can't be more insightful on this one. just dont expect it to work perfect.

Yeah...the problem is that most of them use the 2.4GHz spectrum which is already insanely clogged anyway (routers, microwaves, cordless phones, some cell phones, or anything else that uses a microwave signal). They usually advertise having 4 channels, but the variation in signal frequency is so tiny I doubt it would really matter. But I figured out a way to set all of my stuff up in a reasonable way even if it's not exactly how I want it. That, and all of the cheap shit only supported PAL TV signals which won't work here in the states. All of the NTSC capable models were relatively expensive (considering I needed more than one).

And Arnel...if you don't understand PAL and NTSC you shouldn't be downloading DVDRs.
