Wi-Fi Direct Tags Along with DLNA

The Wi-Fi Alliance has announced new interoperability guidelines for Wi-Fi Direct and DLNA which should make it easier to connect DLNA enabled Wi-Fi devices for media streaming. Currently Wi-Fi Direct can be somewhat convoluted to use depending on your devices, but hopefully this will help simplify things when it comes to media streaming.

DLNA said that the technology will build on the extensive portfolio of Wi-Fi certified devices supported by DLNA in order to provide a high level of connectivity to consumers.

"Wi-Fi Direct meets an important need for today's consumers to enjoy seamless product interoperability," said Nidhish Parikh, chairman and president of DLNA. "DLNA has supported Wi-Fi CERTIFIED devices since 2005 and the inclusion of Wi-Fi Direct in our Interoperability Guidelines is a logical extension of our relationship with the Wi-Fi Alliance. We continue to advance the connected home by providing consumers with new, innovative ways to connect and enjoy their digital content."
