I need help in this area. No t techno savvy so I need to know if this will work with my pc. I have Vista &amp; netgear ethernet for our lap top

Yes, it will work fine... but it will work better with a little tech know-how. You can use the viewing utility that should come with it, and there are many other ways as well. I sometimes use a Chrome browser window, but usually I use VLC (a free downloadable multimedia app). You can also buy Blue Iris from amazon which is very good. The wireless model might not give you the performance that the wired model will, but I have had both outdoors for three years through 110 degrees heat down to -20 freezing and they never skip a beat. Nevertheless, my wired cameras are a smoother picture than the wireless one. bottom line: yes, it will work with vista & netgear.

It should work fine. I have mine running through an HDMI to ethernet (and then back to HDMI on the other end) adapter. As others have said, as long as it HDMI signal is sent unaltered, it should work. You may also want the 90deg adapter because it can stick out far-it just depends on how much space you have to work with.

Yes it will. You may need a USB to Ethernet adapter to get a good connection.

try TP-link WN7200ND. I had Linksys ae3000 which was a very poor product. I replaced it with WN7200ND and I had no problems. My computer is five years old and has Windows 7. But WN7200ND will work with Windows Vista.

I looked up your computer model on the internet and the info I found states you have Windows 7. This adapter (according to the outside box info AND inside directions for installment) is only for Windows 2000 SP4, Windows Vista and Windows XP. So, I would say it would not work with your computer. Here is the NETGEAR phone number found on the box so you can call and double check: 1-888-NETGEAR (1-888-638-4327). Good Luck!

I haven't tried this but as long as your PC is setup for video sharing, it should work. I can see my home network when setting up the dongle.

@ T. Vanlienden... Yes, this is exactly what I use mine for. One must keep in mind however, that this is a USB 2 and therefor the speeds are not going to be like a pure ethernet connection. As long as you're OK with the slower speed, this should work just fine for you. Hope this helps...

Try the ethernet with any laptop, if it works then it should give you the wifi with this device ;p

That is why i purchased it, not sure if it was defective, it just worked on one computer and not the other, so i have to move ethernet line to other computer when needed. For the price it may be worth a try.

Yes, it's completly transparent to the operating. If you have a working wired ethernet adapter in the computer, then this will work.

I believe it's the LAN the one that u would connect to your PC. If you heck the manual it should resolve your question.

I hooked up the ARRIS modem to a Netgear router and from my router I connected my desktop computer. My laptop picks up internet signals from anywhere in my house. So it works.

It should work. I don't have Vista machine to test, but it worked fine with Linux, XP and Win7. This is just a switch followed by a standard USB hub, and it doesn't require any driver. The standard USB drivers included in the OSes just work.

http://www.netgear.com/support/WindowsVista.aspxShort answer: yesThis is pulled from net gears site about compatibility, I also read about the ready share having issues with vista, but I can garuntee you that vista is the issue in most problems you may encounter. If possible I would look deeply into upgrading to win 7 or 8 if you start to encounter problems. Most issues my friends have with vista is that it works perfectly at all or not at all. If you are a lucky person that got a set up that works then congrats but beware something may make your system suddenly unstable. The router works for me between multiple OSes and keeps a high speed throughout. More than you my have asked for, I hope it helps. http://www.netgear.com/support/WindowsVista.aspxShort answer: yesThis is pulled from net gears site about compatibility, I also read about the ready share having issues with vista, but I can garuntee you that vista is the issue in most problems you may encounter.

Yes. Just make sure tge first cable you unplug is on the PC end and not your modem side to ensure you are getting the correct network settings
