    Hello
    Is it possible to connect the funbox with a tuner via WiFi? Is the only thing left to drag the cable, which would be very troublesome for me.

    Is it possible to use an Access Point that would stand next to the tuner and connect it with a cable. Will this solution work?

    Unfortunately, this tuner does not have WiFi, remains UTP or Akces Point. Such a tuner connects to a designated socket in the router that allows access to the tuner, while in the case of Access Point, a colleague will have to purchase two devices, one for the tuner, the other for the router and configure the connection between them as a Bridge. In this configuration, you can watch TV channels without an antenna. Sic! However, a UTP cable is a better solution.

    And what are other solutions? Because I read that you can also connect via Liveplug

    I tested this invention once and I was rather unhappy because most of the home appliances have converters and unfortunately they sow into the mains, which affects the quality of the internet signal sent through the power cords. Sometimes it broke up several times a day and sometimes it worked for several weeks without any problems. Nevertheless, a friend can try. It's just that I wonder if it is not a waste of money, since you can use cheaper devices offering Access Point and Bridge.

    I used a TL-WA701ND once and it worked.

    So now I read that the Sagemcom UHD 80 tuner has wifi and it is possible to connect wirelessly.

    In the title of the topic, a colleague gave UHD 80, you can see that today the colleague has changed his name. Oh, not nice ...

    I changed the name so as not to mislead the topic. So this was what I called WHD.

    Correction. It goes from post # 9 for the sake of accuracy, and this changes the form of things, that the above posts have lost their meaning and are misleading readers :-)

    The Sagemcom WHD 80 tuner has a built-in WiFi module so there is no need to connect with a cable or use the LivePlug

Topic summary

The discussion centers around connecting the Sagemcom WHD 80 tuner to a Funbox router via WiFi. Initially, it was noted that the tuner lacks WiFi capability, necessitating a wired connection or the use of an Access Point. Users discussed the potential of using LivePlug technology, although experiences indicated inconsistent performance. As the conversation progressed, it was clarified that the Sagemcom WHD 80 does indeed have a built-in WiFi module, allowing for wireless connectivity without the need for additional cables or devices. Recommendations for Access Point devices included the TL-WA701ND, which was previously tested successfully.
