I have a DigitalStream PVR in the lounge downstairs connected to the TV.

My MacMini is upstairs wired to the adjacent router.

WHat is the best method to connect the PVR via Wifi to the mac mini upstairs so I can both use the macmini to back up the PVR HD and also connect to BBC iplayer from the PVR.
I thought of using a Vonets wifi bridge connected to eh PVR ethernet port but unfortunately you can only configure that using a windows PC - it won't configure using a Mac.
would an Airport express unit worked if placed downstairs plugged into the PVR ethernet port. shoudl this connect directly to the Mac Mini wifi or through the wifi of the router (BT homehub)

many thanks
