    Looking to keep your computer-to-TV extender setup as basic as possible? Then you might just want to consider Alereon's new NoWire wireless USB extender, which does away with the need for any software or drivers along with the wires. As you might have suspected, however, that means it simply uses the wireless USB dongle to mirror your laptop display on your TV, which itself must be outfitted with a shark fin receiver that connects via HDMI or VGA (with some help form a 3.5mm audio jack). That obviously limits your options a bit, but the good news is that the extender can also take advantage of some software and drivers for Windows for some more advanced functionality. No word on a price just yet, but it looks like the extender will be available sometime in March. Head on past the break for a quick video overview.

    And then scratch Your head wondering why Your laptop is having problems picking up a signal from Your wireless broadband router. I've had nothing but trouble caused by these wireless video senders, they cause crazy amounts of noise which will affect other devices and they don't use the standard 22Mhz channels like other wifi devices. There are only 13 channels with big overlaps, only 11 in USA as diagram indicates therefore lots of devices are limited to 11 channels.
