With more products entering the marketplace that support network connectivity it has become important for you to have network access near your electronics. For many a wireless adapter is enough to do the trick. But if you want to stream HD content you need 802.11N which will work well in most cases. Wireless works well until you have interference from other electronics or a neighbor's wifi setup. So what can you do to install a secure hardwired network without crawling through attics and ripping up drywall?

How do I use this Corinex powerline adapter to stream my Direct TV HR20 high definition output to my receiver on the other side of the house?

You would need a HDMI to Ethernet - think Cat5/6 - converter. There are a few cheap ones, but they need dual cables. You would need a single cable version. Maybe the Honeywell....but I couldn't find literature. I think it is rather expensive. In the end - HDMI to Fiber to HDMI, and bite the bullet to string the fiber would probably be the way to go.

I would guess it would be cheaper to buy a 2nd HR20 receiver as I have an H20 at this location now. The only wire to this location currently is original coax. Any HDMI or Component over coax available that is =< a 2nd HR20?
