## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this work with Onkyo TX-NR 808?  It claims to work only with Onkyo TX-NR xx9 series and later.**
A: I just received one of these, and I cannot get it to work with the TX-NR 808. My 808 will work with ethernet only. It does not appear to support the UWF-1. Nothing happens when you insert it into the USB port, and the 808 does not appear to have software support for it. I don't think my unit was defective, either. I plugged it in to my HTPC, and scanned for new hardware, and it was found, and I had to download a driver. It was recognized as a wireless adapter, and seemed to function normally. In looking at the instructions from Onkyo, a menu should have been available to configure the receiver to use the wireless adapter. No such option or menu is available on the 808. The instructions say it works on TX-NR **9 units or later. I don't think the 808 fits in that description. I see that one writer in this string got his to work with the 808, and I don't know how he could have. My 808, I might add is also updated to the latest firmware, so that cannot be the culprit, either. So let this serve as a caveat to other potential purchasers.

**Q: does this wireless adapter allow you to stream music from itunes on a PC to the reciever?**
A: Yes it will.  If you read your Onkyo receiver instruction book, there's a section there on using DLNA to play music that resides on your PC.  I've done so with my Onkyo TX-8050 with this wireless adapter.  But you must set up and use your Windows DLNA server to do it.  By the way, Mac computers don't come with DLNA server software but there are 3rd party software companies that can provide it for the Mac platform.

**Q: Alexa compatible?**
A: All this unit does is add wireless connectivity to Onkyo receivers.

**Q: Has anyone tried this on a PC?**
A: A WiFi adapter for PC is much cheaper than this guy.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great!!
*by J***E on January 22, 2012*

Worth the price. My wireless router is upstairs in one corner of the loft. My receiver is downstairs in the living room. This little gem connects with the network with no issues. Gets reasonable signal strength to play internet radio without any disruption (what more can you ask for??). I have a 2.4 Ghz wireless G network, have not tried with N and 5Ghz. I am buying a new router next month, will update the review if I see issues.And what I like also is this adaper is so small, it blends into your receiver setup (both being black) and doesn't look odd at all. In fact, I have a 1.5 yrs toddler at home and despite the receiver being close to floor, she has not messed around with it ('cause it is not so easy for a toddler to pull it out). Overall great buy, even though its little expensive.Update:=======Just came across this item "POWERLINK PL-8188CUS MicroN". On 24 Jan it was selling for 7 bucks on mWave dotcom! Yep, unbelievable price for a wireless N adapter. It looks very similar to Onkyo adapter and has similar specs. Check it out before you buy Onkyo adapter.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ New purchase to work with Onkyo 809 also bought from Amazon
*by F***C on January 6, 2013*

I have just odered the 809 (got it for $450.00, also a great price) that was on sale at a great price and I also ordered this item at $19.00 which I guess is a good price. I have not got it yet and when it arrives I will use to update my 809 if needed and to use it to stream radio off the internet. Reviews are all over the place on this item... sure hope it works for me so I can make my life a lot more simple. I will post any problems, but will appreciate any input on what will make this item work to its full potential. Thanks in advance for any help....FredNOTE: I just received this item (1/8/13) and it clearly states in instruction book: To be used on Onkyo xxx09 only. If folks are trying to use on other systems they sure may not work. I will install it tomorrow and if I encounter any problems I will make additional comments.....UPDate...1/9/2012... I just got finished setting my 809 and the UWF-1 Wireless adapter all set up. I have a $29.00 Walmart CISCO Modem which is about 25 feet from the 809 and I get 74%, which I am really satisified with after seeing other posts on here. I couldn't use the remote to set it up though. I did it off the front of the unit after several tries using the remote. Once I got it right,,, about 45 min it came right up and showed all the internet stations avail. I am very satisified so far, but haven't used it really yet. My set came with all the updates already installed so I didn't use it to update. After I get used to the UWF I will repost if I find any problems....1/16/12 This worked flawlessly since I installed it. Seems very steady and never a hiccup....

### ⭐ BEWARE - Onkyo Is Absolutely Clueless With Their Products
*by S***H on December 28, 2012*

BEWARE - Onkyo Is Absolutely Clueless With Their ProductsWARNING ..... DO NOT EXPECT ACCURATE INFORMATION from Onkyo's own Web Site or their 24 / 7 Telephone Tech Support Staff.If you own the Onkyo HT-RC330 AV Receiver that was bundled with the Bose Acoustimass 6 System sold at Sam's Club, the Onkyo UWF-1 will not work with it. This is despite what the Onkyo online product sheet states (works with HT-RC3xx) and what Onkyo Telephone Tech Support staff might tell you.Onkyo USA's Web Link To The UWF-1 .....[...]Read the very last line on the page under "Special Features""Note: The UWF-1 is compatible only with Onkyo 2011 Network Receivers (TX-NRxx9, HT-RC3XX and Later), Network Stereo Receiver TX-8050 and does not connect directly with PCs."I spoke with 2 different Onkyo USA Tech Support representatives (Orlando and Gabe) and exchanged emails with an Onkyo Tech Support representative in Germany (Kevin). All of them assured me that the UWF-1 would work with the HT-RC330 AV Receiver.I was told that the UWF-1 that I first received from Amazon was likely defective and "it can happen". After the replacement arrived and I had no success with it as well, I was given additional advice. I was told the UWF-1 won't work if your Wi-Fi's SSID isn't being broadcast (nothing is in the installation docs about this). I made this change to my Wi-Fi network - no difference. I then was told the UWF-1 doesn't work well with WEP security and that I should change it to WPA2. I made this change to my network - no difference."Gabe" suggested that the two UWF-1's that I now had were both likely defective and that Best Buy also sold them. He recommended I go to Best Buy and try plugging them in to Onkyo Receiver's there to prove them defective before sending them back to Amazon. Instead of going to Best Buy (25 miles), Gabe suggested that an ABC Warehouse store was much closer and that they also sold Onkyo products.I arrived at the nearby ABC Warehouse and told the salesman about my likely defective UWF-1's. He immediately asked if my receiver was "Network Ready" and where it came from. I explained it was the HT-RC330 that came with the Bose Acoustimass 6 System bundle sold at Sam's Club. "Network Ready?" - it's the first I'd heard that term. The ABC Warehouse salesman quickly stated it was very unlikely that the UWF-1 would work with my receiver. He stated that companies sometimes produce models with features stripped out to reach a "price point". I then tried the 2 wireless adapters with an HT-R791 receiver in the store. Both adapters were immediately recognized and worked properly.The Bottom line: The UWF-1 does not work with the HT-RC330. It may well work with the HT-RC360 and HT-RC370 models but Onkyo is too incompetent to understand the differences and communicate with potential consumers.Onkyo = Inept and CluelessConsumer BEWARE !
