Alternative network options for HDHomeRun
Mesh node or wifi bridge
Using a wifi-to-ethernet bridge. If you are using a “Mesh network” and have multiple mesh nodes, this is the easiest option, as you would just need to locate or place a node near the HDHomeRun unit. If you are not using a mesh network/router system, a wireless bridge or “wifi extender” that has a bridge mode would may also work, as long as it can handle the bandwidth of multiple over-the-air video streams.
NOTE: OTA can often be more demanding than normal internet streaming services, especially for ATSC 1.0, which was a standard created in the 1990s.
Something like this, as an example:
MOCA
If you have coaxial cable ran through your home, such as from a cable TV system, it is possible to use that with “MOCA” adapters to make an internet connection.
