Onkyo UWF Wi-Fi USB adapter (AOK)

Written By Jerry, Castle Rock Co. on Saturday, May 25, 2013
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
Works just fine,I read a lot of negative reviews and almost didn't buy it.I knew Crutchfield would take it back if I didn't like it and because of the possible need for updates I went ahead and bought it.I installed it per instructions without any problems.My 717 didn't have any updates ,I will keep it just in case of future updates
Pros:
Foe me all of the negative reviews did not apply.
Cons:
Instructions did not state if it will work in the rear USB port.I used the front and my receiver showed F or R so I believe it will work in front or rear port you may want to follow up on that.

Not user friendly

Written By mgforshort, Fullerton, CA on Sunday, April 21, 2013
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
This dongle is hard to setup, an IT tech spent several hours to get it work because I couldn't. Once it was done we could listen to Pandora, but it is hard and painful to operate. It went back to Crutchfield for a future credit. I got another wireless transmitter/receiver kit for a little bit more money. That is easy to use, be it listening to Internet radio or sending music from the computer hard drive to the Onkyo 8050. The Onkyo dongle won't allow streaming from a hard drive, at least we couldn't figure it out without hours of work.
Pros:
It works when the setup is done
Cons:
It is hard to use and primitive. There are better ways to do this.

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
This unit performed exactly as advertised. I needed help from both Crutchfield and Onkyo setting it up which took a bit of time but now it functions very nicely. From the list of internet services available there is a charge for all except Pandora.

Not sure yet

Written By Rick, New Lenox, IL on Saturday, February 16, 2013
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
Product does not show MAC address on label or the box. I had a hard time getting this configured because I filter wireless devices by MAC address at my router. Menu's on Onkyo TX-NR515 were not very clear on reporting MAC address and it only showed the MAC address of the wired Ethernet port. I had to plug it into the USB port on my PC and find out the MAC address using ipconfig, etc. Also, reported signal strength was something like 20% at just 10 or 12 feet from my wireless access point.

Wifi

Written By daw, Rochester, MN on Monday, January 14, 2013
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
Bought this with the Onkyo 8050 unit and once setup it works great. Easier than a wired connection.
Pros:
Connects to internet nicely without dropping signal.
Cons:
Only connects at 11mpbs. Can be difficult to setup with WPA2 on router and a complex password. Instructions were less than helpful for this as well.

UWF 1 wifi adaptor

Written By Tom, Oho on Thursday, January 03, 2013
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
Had it for a few weeks, it connected my 818 to my wifi network without any issues. However the signal reception was at 30% whereas computer, iphone, ipad all get excellent reception in the same area. Net services were very spotty; updating firmware was very painful. Chose to run a hardwire connection to my router and now net stations are GREAT and firmware updates are simple. Lookout, here comes another UWF 1 for sale. My advice is don't waste your time on this piece.
Pros:
Easy to hook up
Cons:
Very spotty reception. I can't recommend.

Won't connect

Seemed like a good idea since I cannot wire via ethernet cable, but it did not work at all for me. This device "saw" my wireless router, it would not connect. TTried it many times over a few days. I returned the item to Crutchfield.

Worth Buying

Written By peterk, Connecticut on Monday, September 03, 2012
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
I received this free with an Onkyo Theater System, I am not sure I would have considered it otherwise. Now that I have it and have used it I think it would be a great idea for everyone to use. The ease with which the setup takes care of things and not having to fiddle with another wire make this a real winner.
Pros:
Simple to set up, after that you can just forget that it is there, it will take care of the rest for you.
Cons:
None
