I would rather not fish cables through the wall if I can help it. Has anyone had success with Wireless adapters for web access on the HR21?
 
Linksys extreme N gaming adapter works great, have it hooked to a router and my HR21, Toshiba A3 HD DVD and Fyre TV beta unit hooked to the router, all 3 work great.
 
We used the Linksys Wireless G Game bridge connected by Ethernet into the DVR. It let us control the wireless setup from the console menu similar to our XBox. Great experience.

I tried wireless for a while, but it was unreliable over the ~50 foot path from my family room to the bedroom. The house is L-shaped and the signal had to go through several walls. I think the insulation in the exterior walls has foil backing, which was probably the cause of the problem. I bought a couple of the Directv HD Networking Kit powerline adapters and they work quite well ($35 each or $60 for ones built into a powerstrip).
