AC Ryan Playon!HD Mini 2 Full HD Network Media Streamer Review

Others/Miscelleneous by stefan @ 2012-02-28

The Playon!HD Mini 2 Full HD Network Media Streamer from AC Ryan has a pretty small footprint and is able to stream multimedia content (videos, photos, music) right from our network; in case we have attached to it an USB Flash Drive or external HDD, we can play back the multimedia contents locally. The device can be also connected wirelessly to the network via an accessory sold separately.

As an optional accessory, we can get for the Playon!HD Mini 2 a Wireless N 300mbps USB adaptor:

 

 

 

A small product description and specifications can be found in the back side of the packaging; here we can learn that this item can be also used with our PC or laptop in case we decide to leave the streamer on a wired connection:

 

 

 

The WiFi adapter looks like an USB Flash Drive and preserves the design features of the main product:
