768686 2009-04-26 10:00:00 I have a MediaGate MG350HD media extender connected wirelessly (g) to my router. It doesn't support 720 or 1080p resolutions. It's natural replacement would be the MediaGate MG800HD. But the one review I found rates it badly.
I want to upgrade to a wireless (n) device that supports full HD .avi's, .vlc's, mkv's etc but stay away from windows media centre.
Any recommendations?

Would a dedicated PC be an option? Lots more power and flexibility:)
