Xtreamer, No More Issues
I’ve noticed over the weekend that since I fitted the add-on cooler to the Xtreamer I have not been having any issues as I had described when I first purchased the little media streamer. This is quite awesome as I did start to wonder if I had just wasted £109 on a new heater.
The only issue I have come across is when I replaced the router with my D-Link Dir-655 as the old router had started to randomly drop the connection to the Internet. The dir-655 was setup as an access point for the Xtreamer on Wireless-N to get the best speed streaming downstairs to the TV. When I came to swap the routers I completely reset the d-link to factory settings. I suspect I didn’t setup the wireless on the same settings as before as now the Xtreamer fails to connect to the Wireless-N network and get an IP address. However the old router which is Wireless-G still has some life in it to act as a access-point for the Xtreamer. The laptops are on the Wireless-N network which keeps the airways clear enough for the Xtreamer to stream HD surprisingly!
One day I’ll end up fixing it as it was connected to the d-link but if it isn’t broken don’t fix it. Right?
The Xtreamer Cooler Has Arrived
So my Xtreamer cooler has arrived and I thought I’d take this time you tell you and upload a picture from my iphone. Will have to fit this tomorrow but hopefully this will kill some of the annoyances with it when it starts to over heat!
