How many TVs do you have in your house? Are they all connected to your cable or satellite? We have long lamented that we can’t watch satellite on the TV in our bedroom because it doesn’t have a set-top box. That limits us to the few channels we can get with an antenna and watching Netflix via our home network. It would be nice to have a box for it, but the additional charge each month for another box is just TOO MUCH!!
So, we were super excited to hear about MyWirelessTV 2. We now have the ability to use the set-top box in our living room to “beam” a signal to the TV in our bedroom where we can change channels and watch TV seamlessly, just like the box was right in that room. It was amazing easy to set up following the instructions included in the box and only took a few minutes.
The added benefit to MyWirelessTV 2 is that it replaces messy HDMI cables with the convenience of wireless, meaning you can install an HDTV anywhere you want. This makes it possible to connect your TV to your set top box without having to use an ugly and obtrusive cable. It offers the flexibility to network your home just the way you want to, without investing in an expensive wiring project, or stringing wires throughout your hallways.
We are SO excited about the flexibility the MyWirelessTV 2 gives us. As a direct quote from my husband, “This technology is so innovative. It’s going to be a game changer for our family!”
Another handy new option from Actiontec is the ScreenBeam Mini2 Wireless Display Receiver. It lets you use a television to display what you have on your tablet or smartphone (compatible with Android products.
With the ScreenBeam Mini2 Wireless Display Receiver you have the power to wirelessly mirror anything from your phone or tablet onto your HDTV. It can be used for video & audio, pictures, apps, presentations, and basically anything else you watch on your small screen. Use ScreenBeam Mini2 to share virtually any local or online content. You can beam movies, videos, music, games, applications, presentations, documents and more. You don’t need an existing Wi-Fi network or wireless router for ScreenBeam Mini2 to work. Super convenient!

I love everything about this! We have on TV that had never had great reception despite swapping out the cable box. This might be a perfect solution. Plus I hate all the wires!
Dawn McAlexander says
I would consider getting cable again if I had something like this. I hate those cable wires having to be run all over the house.
Lindsey Paris says
I can think of a hundred times when I could use the mirroring function. Snapchat is better on the bigscreen! 🙂
Ann Bacciaglia says
This is a perfect idea for my kids. They are both away at College in Septenber.

This is really cool! I don’t have satellite or cable but I know plenty who do and they don’t want to pay extra for having a second box.
Beeb Ashcroft says
These are amazing! My son-in-law is pretty techy so I am surprised that he had not heard about these. I definitely need Screen Beam MIni2. It would make things a lot easier for sharing!
Val says
Technology really advances day by day! This is a great product idea to have!
Brandy says
This is super neat, I may have to get one! Thanks for sharing!
Liz Mays says
Now this sounds convenient. I like that we’d be able to connect this to all of the TVs in our house. It would make things much easier.
MJ.L says
This is great! We recently ditched cable so having this would be wonderful.
Marcie Wahrer says
This is genius! We only have full satellite serve in our living room, so being able to watch our favorite shows before bed would be a real treat.
Amy @ Marvelous Mommy says
Very neat! We had something similar a long time ago. This one looks way better!
Jeanine says
This would be such a great idea for my hubs! He freaks out so much about tv, and this is something he would so love!
Pam says
This is so cool! I love that your can mirror stuff from your phone or tablet to the TV.
Sarah Bailey says
What a fantastic idea – we only have one TV at the moment, be I’ve been thinking about getting another in the bedroom for my poorly days, so will have to think about getting one of these as well. x
