The DMA2200 does what it's supposed to, it just doesn't do it very well. If you want to stream content over a wired Ethernet connection, or stream regular video over WiFi, then this device will function quite well as a bridge between your PC and your T...

We’ve been waiting for media-streaming devices to catch up to 802.11n, and the Linksys DMA2200 does it in style—geek style, that is. The box isn’t particularly attractive, but we dig the dual-band Wi-Fi radio inside that’s capable of operating on eithe...
Dualband 1080p streaming with builtin DVD player; wide format support.
Vistaonly; not much reason to pick one of these over an Xbox 360.

There are a number of new media extender products arriving at this years CES, but Linksys was good enough to give us a sneak peek at its new DMA2200 before the show. The DMA2200 is a prime example of what you can expect to see from the Windows-orien...
