Does this disrupt the wifi service at all and what is the difference between a shield and a harmonizer?

YES! This device is a transmitter that generates electro-magnetic interference and would disrupt all radio communications. It also is probably illegal to use. It also would not be able to stop EMF but would definitely interfere with them.

No this does not disrupt wifi, it is a closed loop tesla coil that both reduces and eliminate dangerous EMF coming from electric sources. Point blank it does exactly what it says. The very first day we turned it on the starlings stopped fighting at the feeder and the cats don't cower during electric storms anymore. Since we use solar panels its a needed item due to the EMF that the solar plant produces at the converters. The shield blocks bad rads and the harmonizer balances the earth fields magnetics in the house. Hope this helps.

Not at all... The total shield is a home or business emf protection device because it needs to be plugged into an outlet at all times... And covers a larger area.The mini harmonizer is battery operated & is a mobile/portable EMF protection device for when you leave your home.Hope this helps :)Jason M

Yes, WiFi uses EMF to accomplish the wireless communication. While this device will not harm any equipment, it will eliminate the EMF used by the router, thereby disabling WiFi. If you have this device and your WiFi, cell phone, and radios are working, then it is not effective.

Thanks for reply...So, that is in fact what I am trying to determine in these threads. If I have the USB wi-fi plug, then I should be able to use any computer (or wi-fi capable device) as my music 'server' - correct...?There should be no need to buy another router (Apple TV or Apple Airplay)...Getting very close to pulling trigger on this purchase so thanks for thots if you know.

The one you linked has a signal booster. The one I have does not (and it works fine without it).

I have it connected to my n router (it's not an AirPort Extreme, however). I do, sometimes loose connection, but I have speaker in my garage, three or four walls in between the speaker and router. In my opinion, it should not loose connection. I don't know if it's my router (I don't have connection issues with any other devices - laptop, desktop. two iPhones and an iTouch. )Hope this helps!!

Mine worked very intermittently. I was able to get music to come out of it, but not very reliably. Try moving it around. You could also check if there's an update for the firmware for your access point.I ended up sending mine back because the music was constantly pausing.

I was concerned with that very issue but I changed to a dual band router and put the WiFi dongle on the 5 network (subwoofer operates on the 2.4). Everything works great, however, after almost 3 hours on the phone with a friend in another city trying go get his WiFi BluRay player to stay connected, I had all but given up. Out of desperation I asked him the usual questions (Microwave, 2.4 phones, baby monitor) and he happened to mention this soundbar. After a few tests with reproducable failures, it appears that it CAN significantly interfere with 2.4 WiFi.

I have had this be an issue with some of my streaming music services. The issue apparently was with them as they released patches to fix that. I would connect it with the cord and see if you have the same issues. It might just be interference of the Bluetooth signal etc.

It does not interfere with wifi, wifi interferes withe the rf signal from the box to the headset.

I found a solution. First I tried every channel, no luck, terrible internet throughput. This was on 802.11b/g, which is on the same band (2.4GHz). My solution was to config my home router to 802.11a (5GHz). Now that wifi and this monitor are on totally different bands, they don't interfere and internet performance is good again. Home router is a Netscreen SSG5, which is a power-user (or Enterprise) class "branch-office" router.

Simply put: no. It is tangle-enabled. Not hideously so, but they do get somewhat tangly.

Apparently you do not need the bridge anymore. Due to the robustness of modern WIFI networks, the newest software update (as of September 2014) allows for WIFI connection, instead of their proprietary network. See: http://blog.sonos.com/news/introducing-an-even-simpler-sonos/

Almost no noticeable delay but it does have a tendency to break signals through certain walls in my home. Never had a problem syncing the device and works flawless when you are in direct line of sight with your device

I haven't noticed any delay at all. As if the speakers in both zones were tied to the same terminals. I use zone 2 output to my garage with the wireless control on my android tablet. works great.

correct, you bought the wrong product! you should search for "wifi booster" GOOD LUCK

I purchased one of these and after 2 weeks of striving with it , I sent it back. I was at Costco and saw a wi-fi signal booster that you just plug into the wall which would help with this issue;Called "amped signal booster"Item #629754 This brand 9Amped) is also available at Amazon and is the way I am going to go.I would avoid the YWA-10! Best regards.

I have WiFi in my home and it has not interfered at all. Its a great product . It has helped my mother hear the TV once more.

I have the audio fox system as well as wifi and have never had a problem. My wifi is being used on the TV, laptop, ipad, iPhone and Wii.
