WNCE 2001 upgrade
Hi, I have a Yamaha AV receiver, which lacks Wifi. Have seen recommendations on WNC2001, but want to know if there are any upgrades to it ? Regards Seli
It is highly unlikely that you will be able to use a wifi USB dongle to add wifi to an AV receiver. It needs all sorts of software and drivers to work.
Try throwing the question as a Yamaha user group.
Does the receiver have LAN input? If so you could consider powerline networking.
The WNCE2001 functions exactly the same as a powerline adapter but may be more limited in wi-fi range compared to the powerline adapters 'anywhere in the home' range.
