Wireless TV Antenna

Just moved into a new house and we only have one wall socket to plug the TV into, (antenna wall socket).

I have tv's all over the house and I would like to know how I can watch TV on any one of them, by only using the one wall outlet, but without having those ugly wires all over my house.

a wireless send/recieve type deal.

i dont think thzts been invented yet

If i go and purchase a basic tv antenna like rabbit ears, and connect it to my wireless router will it boost my signal? or any other thoughts I am trying to get my signal to reach about 100 yards. Any inexpensive ideas?

No, it's completely different technology.

100 yards (300 feet) is well within the range of most routers with stock antenna. I've gotten mine to go 500-600 feet outdoors with no modifications. Most are rated at about 400 feet.

Put your wireless router as high up as you can and as far from electrical and metal things as you can, that'll give you the best coverage. Try to put it in the middle of where you expect to be (usually the middle of the house). If you have 2.4GHz cordless phones you may want to replace them with 5.8GHz, 900MHz, or the new DECT6.0 phones that won't cause interference. Also, wireless video senders, or wireless cameras that run on 2.4GHz should be set to the farthest channel from your router (e.g. set video sender to 1 or A and put the router on channel 11). Channels 1, 6, and 11 are preferable because they don't "overlap" with each other.

A few routers support replacing the antennas with either directional or high-gain antennas, sometimes that works, sometimes not. I've found it's usually hard to find out if the replacment antenna will be comptible though.

If you really need more range after positioning your router as best you can, some companies sell "WiFi Repeaters" that re-transmit the information stronger to boost the signal. If you can run wires to (or near) the location where you have weak signal, get an "Access Point" or a router that can be configured as an access point (a second router would cause problems) and set it to the same SSID (name) and Encryption key (security) - then computers will pick whichever is strongest.

I suppose you could always try making one of these, it will decrease the range on one side but increase range wherever it's pointed. I was able to get from 60 up to 85 percent in my basement. For free...well ok, a sheet of cooking foil, some glue, and cardstock or photopaper...it's worth a try!

Even if it doesn't help, it sure looks cool :)

I just brought a house that was built around the 60s. The antenna port for the TV was obviously an after thought because what I have is a ugly back cord hanging from the ceiling that is attached to the antenna in the roof.
Im wondering is there some (wireless) set up that will allow me remove this cord?

no unfortunately u have to have this wire connected straight into the tv or a set top box .

the only thing which can send wireles signals is a wireless video sender but tht needs to be hooked up to one tv to send the picture to the other tv

My nephew said they make a such a thing. But it would need a sending antenna from the cable box, besides a receiving antenna at the remote TV.

Anyone familiar with this setup, and the cost ?

I was just planning on having a cable guy do his thing.

There are local transmitters that you can use to send a video signal from one device to another. But you will have to change channels with the cable box and not on the TV itself. One was called the "Rabbit". Radio Shack may have these. It just transmits one channel of TV from a video input to a remote TV. The source can be any composite video signal with sound. I've got one of these someplace. It didn't work very well and had a very limited range. This is an old timer analogue system.

There are more modern digital systems that will do the job as well. The new AppleTV will do this. If your computer has a tuner and is connected to the cable, then you can probably use it to transmit to an AppleTV device.

I've moved into a new house and I've just discovered that the television aerial outlet is on a different wall to where I would like to position my TV. Instead of running a cable around the skirting (around the room) is there a wireless device that do the same job? I hope somebody has some links for me. Thanks :)

I assume you mean like a wireless arial that you would plug into the TV wall socket correct?

If so, im not sure, i too have been hunting around for something simmilar. The only thing i could find wireless tv streeming from one TV to the next, but i dont think this would help in your situation.
