Im gonna say yes. It connects easily to my D-Link router and the instructions to set-up the wireless link between the unit and the router are pretty simple and easy to understand. It was also easy to connect my phone to the Phillips unti as well. User Friendly

It's a dang fine mobo all the way around. Streaming will of course depend on your ISP's abilities.

No but you should be able to connect your tv to your network and access the files on the NAS if it is DLNA compatible.

I've set mine up for sharing with Win 7 64-bit and Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit, works fine sharing over the gig ethernet. For USB external drives, there are only 4 USB-2 ports. For wireless access to the N40L, you need a wireless router {ASUS, Almond etc.) and a USB wireless adapter (ASUS etc.). Win 7 works w/wireless, I did not try that with Linux. I hacked mine to support 6 internal SATA drives, 3 are 4TB (BIOS flash plus lots of cable kludge) - again, works fine. The BIOS flash is not recommended unless you can safely navigate dodgy eastern Europe hacker sites and know how to build the boot thumb drive.

As Mark may have been explaining, if your router for instance has a usb port, you can connect to that and share amongst your network. Its not a nas or air model.

Can you plug an HD Antenna into the back with a USB dongle & watch local over-the-air channels?- I have not tried it, but I don't believe so.Can it see/browse video files on a network NAS?- Yes. It was able to see my SaMBa share without any problems and play the videos there.

Yes. I have my Amped hard wired to my providers router. The main router is in a back room office. The other is in the family room. I have a wire rn through the attic and down the wall where my home theater equipment is located. Most modern A/V manufacturers will issue firmware updates for your stuff. Your computer will show all available connections. You can select and deselect from either of them.

Probably not easily... I hesitate to say that anything is not doable these days, but the Plugable needs a fair bit of power and a software driver. If you want to share your hard drive over the local network, look into plugging your hard drive into your router. If you want a mobile solution, look for a wireless-enabled hard drive made for that purpose.

No This is not a NAS (Network Attached Storage) device, unless your router has a USB Port for external storage this will not work.

I was able to stream to my Asus I play player and smart tv. The device was slow because the media scanner was constantly running and taking 90% of the resources. I recommend buying a synology nas instead for media and everything else. The OS is much better an the apps to stream to smart TVs and iPad/android are better. WD is not fully baked.

I have a similar board running pfsense 2.1. Some features are not supported by freebsd but you won't likely need USB3 or fully featured video drivers. You'd probably want a second NIC though.

Works well with my Sony Blu Ray player so I don't see why not. Stream is consistent with no buffering. 802.11n

No, your router have internal antenas I recomend to you to use the ASUS (EA-N66) Dual Band N450 Ultra-Fast Wireless 3-In-1 (AP, Repeater, Ethernet Adapter) Adapter With High-Power and you can use it as a repeter. I love the product, if you are goin to buy it read the instructions from asus website.

Yes, as long as it is set up that way. I believe B/G compatibility is set as default. On the router GUI, see the Wireless &gt; General tab for the b/g protection checkbox.

Displaying a single video steam is pretty resource-cheap on current (within the last 5 years) hardware.It really depends on what you want to do - is the Dell going to be a full-blown Windows Media Center or will you just watch shows via the HDHomeRun apps? Will you be using wired or wireless networking? IF wireless, is your access point DLNA-compatible (required)?FWIW, I'm able to use a 64GB Surface Pro and an Asus 202e to watch shows & videos just fine.
