"laptop pc to hdtv wireless" 2010-01-17
By Stehen A. Berndt (williamsport pa)
IO gear has it hands down. After reading a number of reviews, most suggested

following the instructions. (hard for us over 60's type DUH!!!!)

Best advice I ever took. Installed on two laptops in 35 minutes....

Works very very well.

"Wireless in name only" 2009-12-22
By M. Hacker (New York, NY USA)
I will preface this review by saying that my goal is typically to eliminate wires and cords wherever possible. I recently bought a new all-in-one computer and all of my other peripherals (printer, external hard drive) are connected wirelessly. When I originally thought about buying this my entire goal was to try to minimize wires in my home. I live in an apartment and did not want cables running from my computer to my TV. However, the unit itself creates an entire mess of wires and power cords that I did not anticipate. Perhaps if I were using this for another function it would be ok but for what I want, a clean organized way to transmit from my computer to my TV this does not do it for me.

"Works with VISTA but NOT Win7" 2009-12-13
By Donald K. Korte (Arizona, Mesa)
The product was a little tricky to install but after it was complete the laptop running VISTA worked great. However, we needed to upgrade to Win7 since we were going to teach Win7 and the drivers do not support Win7. We then had to purchase long cables so that we could teach the class. We will now hope for an availability of Win7 drivers to supoort the wireless VGA unit.

"Video was 'ok'. Audio is terribly hard to setup...." 2009-11-15
By Denis Dion
Don't waste your time and money.

The video portion of it works 'ok'. (Good, not Great)

Very CPU intensive, even on a fairly new laptop. Couldn't do fullscreen.

Wasted one evening trying to get the audio receiver to 'sync' up with

the USB transmitter. Barely got it to work. (Laptop running XP).

The next days, it didn't work anymore.

Tried installing the whole thing on a different laptop. This time, on Vista.

Same damn thing. Video was 'ok', sound was not working. The audio receiver couldn't sync up.

Uninstalled everything. Reinstalled with the latest greatest drivers from iogear's website.

Absolutely no improvement. Read thru all the FAQ, Troubleshooting Guides, googled everything, etc...

Wasted three nights trying to set up that gizmo.... Packed up everything and sent it back.

BUY A SIMPLE GOOD OLD 25 VGA CABLE WITH AUDIO. It doesn't require any convoluted installation, no drivers,

no sound issues, takes 30 seconds to install and it will allow fullscreen display on your big screen TV....

$20 instead of $200.....

This product is a great idea, on paper, but unfortunately, this one from IOGear is not ready yet...

"Useless, and flat out false advertising" 2009-11-13
By pcbuilder (Portland)
I just moved from a house to an apartment and decided there should be a way to cancel cable and just watch Hulu on my 50" plasma for free. I researched online and found this product to have the highest customer rating, so I bought it. I spent an enlightening hour on the phone with their tech support, and here's some things you should know. My apartment is 740sq ft. My computer is located just around a corner and exactly 24 feet from my TV.

1st: the product WILL NOT WORK with Windows 7. They're working on the issue. Yeah, great.

2nd: when they say 30 foot max distance, they mean it and even that is stretching the truth.

3rd: when they don't say anything about REQUIRING a direct line of sight, they are omitting facts. I had to hold the USB piece in mid air with a direct line of sight to the TV and it still only had 2 orange bars (should have 5 green).

4th: other wireless devices WILL interfere with reception, even at different frequencies. The tech told me this. My wireless router was blamed for the choppy video coming across to the TV.

I even hooked it up to my netbook and placed it 12 feet from the TV-- video was still choppy. Bottom line, if you're looking to watch video from the internet on your TV wirelessly, you are ahead of your time. Maybe in a few years someone will figure it out. Iogear is not that someone. I returned for a refund, and Amazon was, as always, absolutely wonderful.
