Some of this, if my landlord is correct is not a problem, he got the link for the box from bell. According to the manual, the wifi should not be a problem in theory either... if the correct information is provided, it should have wifi connection. Not sure I follow while digital would be a problem for me question though? On Mon, 22 Jan 2024, D. Hugh Redelmeier via talk wrote:
I'm not convinced that it will work. (I don't know that it won't.)
One clue is that Bell won't offer it to you.
Another is that the web site is for Bell's Manitoba Telephone System subsidiary. There's a good chance they use different technology since MTS started as an independant company.
If it works, it has to connect "upstream" to another box with WiFi. Will your house's Bell box inter-operate with this thing?
The TV signal will be digital all the way to the VIP2502. Is that a problem for you?
