Are there any delays or downside to wireless?

I have not found any downsides to wireless, no problems with the speakers and the sound out of this unit is great

Yes, the voice and picture are out of sys. We are not using it at this time. We were using a mci cable. We will try another type later. Just not happy with it.

The lag is 250 milliseconds. Not noticeable unless you are looking for it. All Bluetooth has this delay.

Kind of a vague question...I haven't had any issues as of yet. Range seems good, but that can depend on the WiFi source and how many others are connected.

Very quickly. There is a USB pickup for wireless connectivity. The system will recognize it immediately and you will have use in a mtter of a couple of seconds. Hope this helps. Lou Orleman

Yes the wifi is not exactly easy. It takes some time to set up. I actually just use the USB these days since it's faster.

I have not experienced any problem with interference with my wireless internet.

I have a wireless network with wireless printed and several devices. I have never had a problem, or at least noticed one, with it interfering with my home wireless network.

It doesn't compare to wifi in my home - it's more like the speed I get with AT&T; 4G on my iPhone. It's not something that I could do all my work on (I'm a web developer), but it works just fine when I'm onsite with a client or stuck somewhere with no wifi.

No; improves connection speed and quality. Used to drop connection all the time at work, now my terminals' wireless connection is the most stable connection in the building.This particular device isn't like 2 wireless cards bridged, which I think is what you're getting at. It's a bit bulky though, which is my only complaint.

Yes and very easy to set up. You can opt out of the wireless easily as well.

Not as is. You can add wireless capability for a nominal charge either by purchasing a wireless card and installing it or by purchasing a wireless USB dongle.

Maybe. If not you can easily update it. It will probably prompt you to do so when connected to a wireless connection

This is a "it depends". If you are using the new ac wireless standard and have a good signal it may offer noticeable speed improvement. As slower standards and/or signal quality degrades any improvement at the diskstation side will become unimportant. The real question is can you really get much 100Mbps real throughput with *your* wireless environment? Some may disagree but I find a wired connection to be the most dependable for high-throughput situations. There are too many variables to be more specific but I hope this answer will help at least a little.

Yes, I'm not very technical however if there is WiFi I can used it and I can even use someones wireless in the area with no problem if I am not at home. It's awesome. I'm sure you will enjoy it!

I do not know, my wireless died in less than a yea,r and I am now on my forth wireless device. Each model is the latest and the greatest only because the other units are out of service so fast.

Nope, the delay is seriously undetectable. As opposed to bluetooth which is abysmal! I have this hooked to tv's, computers, tablets, and there's no noticeable delay at all.

I have my wireless for a long time. I have had no problems with it. However if transmitter and receiver are not close, I would have problems as other are discussing. When I move them closer together it takes care of the problem. I hope this helps.
