I'm moving from a house into an apartment complex that has free wifi in the building. The problem I have is I stream a lot of media some from the internet, but mostly on my local network using a media server, homerun prime, and a media extender.
I have no clue if the internet is wireless G or N but I need a way to network all those devices together to stream 1080p media files. Currently I have everything connecting through cat5 cable with no problem. I'm looking for help on a solution on the best way to network in the apartment.
I could try and just get wireless to ethernet adapters, but my main issue with that is network security.
My other thought was to get a single adapter and my own wireless router so that I'm on my own network and use EoP to connect my devices around the apartment together on the local network and use the wireless to ethernet adapter to connect to the internet from my PC/media server.
Last thought was to just spend $30/mo on my own internet connection with a wireless router and existing completely on my own.
Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
