Product Review (submitted on October 27, 2015):
As with any purchase online, you should read as many reviews
as possible, both good and bad. I actually prefer to read the
negative reviews first, to see what issues other people had
with the item. For this item, I read about the problems
others had with transmission through walls, distance between
the transmitter and receiver, cutting out, audio sync, etc. I
use these to compare to my planned setup and compared my
plans to others that posted positive reviews. I decided to
make the purchase and have had NO regrets whatsoever. I have
a DirecTv HD DVR in my living room connected to an LG LCD
flat screen. Facing the purchase of a second box for the
bedroom, I started looking online for wireless transmitters
and found the NAVS500 at Amazon. I received the product and
setup was very quick and simple. The units paired immediately
on the first try. The transmitter has to send through the
guest bedroom walls (2) about 40 feet away to reach the
receiver in the master bedroom. It worked flawlessly on the
first attempt. The only issue I had was the placement of the
IR Remoter sensor on the DTV box. After finally realizing
that the sensor had to be placed directly over the sensor on
the box, it started working correctly. I was concerned that
this would block the sensor while watching TV in the living
room, but apparently not. I am no electronic wizard, but I
guess it has some type of pass-through ability. Whatever, it
works. The instructions are not clear about the placement, so
I hope this helps someone else in a similar situation. I have
only had the unit up and running for a couple of weeks, but
so far it has worked perfectly, as advertised. I am now able
to enjoy HD quality programming in the bedroom without the
need to purchase another satellite receiver. I can also view
my recorded programs in the bedroom. All you have to do is
turn on the satellite receiver, transmitter and receiver,
turn off the TV in the living room and watch your full
programming on the TV in the bedroom. Obviously, I would
highly recommend this product to anyone in a similar
situation.
