There clearly is a issue selling this product to folks with pre exsisting networks. Not everyone will want to replace their network gear, should the streamer not just work on most if not all consumer networks?
Most people don't want the hassle Mike, they expect to buy a streamer and plug it in.. Have it work out of the box.
If your streamer is that fussy about the network it operates on I for one can see why Keith feels he can't recommend it. It's my understanding he wanted to promote this product and has no vested interest in its failing .
Unfortunately you will get issues like these, as you point out yourself it's best to not only buy the streamer but replace your whole home network .
That's fine, your open about that but it seriously limits your potential customer base and will no doubt cause issues like these going forward.
There are loads of streamers on the market, maybe they all need special networks.. But I doubt it.
I am sure a simple phone call could of resolved this, it's never easy for either party when your dealing with customers or manufacturers that are out of country either.. It's another layer of difficulty.
