Streaming TV via Hava

By Keith Shaw on Fri, 12/19/08 - 11:28am.

I'm working at home today in the "basement branch", so I'm pretty psyched that I was able to get the Hava Titanium HD WiFi device hooked up as part of this week's Cool Tools column. I've got my work notebook connected to the VPN, and the desktop is streaming TV content from upstairs. For the past hour or so I've been monitoring news coverage, and the streaming has been very good (no jitter on the LAN).

My only beef (see the column) is that the setup process was pretty horrendous. If Monsoon Media can figure out an easier way to set up the WiFi dongle on the device, this would be a worthy competitor to people looking to buy a Slingbox or similar in-home / Internet TV streaming device.
