Wired versus and/or wireless
Greetings! I am bad at all-things-tech and would appreciate some basic help. I have an older, wired HughesNet connection that goes directly to my computer. I don't like the idea of wireless signals in my home and have to date been pleased with the wired-only connection. However, now I'm looking for a way to get movies, since the NetFlix DVD service is no longer available. So . . . I see the new "Fusion" option at HughesNet. With that, can I turn the wireless off when I don't want wireless energy all over my home? Does the wireless work with a TV to get movies, or with the computer, or both? (Our TV is pretty old). How dangerous are the wireless signals--say, if we're sitting 8-10 feet away from the TV to watch movies? How would the wireless be added to our system? Is that something we'd do, or would an installer do? Does it require a different and/or separate modem? Does it come in through a wire? If so, can our existing wire be split to go to our TV room to provide wireless there, with no wireless in the computer room? I know that's a lot of questions--I apologize for my ignorance, but really do appreciate some help. In advance, thank you! 🙂1.3KViews0likes1Comment
