Abstract
Devices and methods are provided for determining and establishing network path for a streaming video device. The device may receive video from a remote digital video recorder (DVR) through a first access point (AP) wirelessly connected to second AP of the remote DVR, wherein the streaming video device, the first AP, and the remote DVR share a network, wherein the remote DVR includes a third AP. The device may determine a first connection quality associated with a first frequency band between the streaming video device and the first AP. The device may determine a second connection quality associated with a second frequency band between the streaming video device and the second AP. The device may determine that the second connection quality exceeds the first connection quality. The device may establish a direct connection between the streaming video device and the second AP using second frequency band. The device may receive DVR video over the second frequency band.
