I'm trying to expand my wireless coverage with an outdoor access point, will this plug into and work with other brands of wireless rouners?

It will plug into any router, but you do need to know a least the basics of setting up routers to make it work because this device IS a wireless access point that plugs into a router, not just a "plug-and-play" miracle device, with many of the same settings as a router (Wi-fi security, etc.) -- unless you want to leave your wireless network wide open to attack. And the operative phrase there is "plug in," because this device requires input via an Ethernet cable; it's not a wireless repeater, which as a rule you want to avoid because they're generally slower (every time you extend a wireless connection by wireless hop your throughput drops by 50%) and in some cases hard to keep alive. If you can get a cable out of your router into this device and set it up, you'll be golden for a very long time. We use them where I work and they have been flawless for months. They have a range of about a 300' radius at full power, and you will want to reduce the power to cover only the desirable area, lest you invite hacking and complaints from neighbors about drowning out their wireless gear if you happen to end up on the same channel -- another reason you need to know something about setting up routers. The configuration software that comes with them is great, too.

This is an access point only, not a router (a typical home router acts as an access point, router, firewall, and dhcp server, among other things). So not only will it work with other routers, it needs a router, or else your wireless clients won't be able to get anywhere. If there is overlap in the coverage areas between this and any other wireless access points you have, you will want to have them on separate channels so they do not interfere with each other. Also, you need to install the UniFi controller software on a PC to configure this AP - you can't just log into it directly via IP address.

Only if the router has an external screw-in antenna. The cable from the booster has to screw into the antenna socket on the router.

No wireless... Need the Ethenet cable and the POE... If still time, go for the AC one. I'm reaching places (concrete walls and twisting halls) I was never able to reach with multiple AP Outdoor units.

It should work with any router or wireless access point that can be connected with Ethernet cable. It's usually not the internal network but the external cable feed that can be problematic.

As long as you make the connection at the operator's terminals it will work. If the terminals will not accept multiple wires, make up the wires with appropriate wireless nut adding one extra conductor to be connected to the operator.

Our extenders work with all standard Wi-Fi routers (IEEE and Wi-Fi certified). Unfortunately there are some rare cases where our extenders may not work with non-standard routers or routers with altered firmware such as those from 3rd party sources or proprietary firmware, such as those from certain ISPs. As far as our information goes your unit should have no issues.

It won't work, as there is a limitation for transmitting the signal over power line. but you could share the wireless signal if you could get the neighbor's signal or if they could get yours.

This unit will work but only connected through an Ethernet cable and configured as an access point. If you need a unit that connects wireless to your network than you need an extender like the SR20000G.

Maybe, but I doubt that it would do you much good. One problem is that instead of "amplifying" your current network, this device creates a new network called "Wireless-Repeater," which requires a separate login and can create overlap conflicts with your existing wireless router network. So I suppose two of these things could overlap with each other. The unit never worked for me. I solved my range problems by upgrading to an 802.11ac (DOCSIS 3.0) wireless router. In any case, there must be better wireless range extenders from Amazon as well.

From what Ubiquiti has said, no. Even though this and the Unifi AP Outdoor are basically the same thing internally, Ubiquiti wants to keep the product lines separated.

Yes , it works well with other products. In my experience the best router out there.

Sorry I am wireless but ifI had to use an adapter I would use the same brand of my router (ie) Belkin, Linksys, etc, that way I would be sure of compatability

This antenna replaces one of your routers existing antenna. Results will likely very but the simple answer is that as along as your router has an antenna that unscrews then this will work by screwing its cable in that place.

This product did not work for me not sure your scenario but also look into access points and look into a better wireless router. I purchased a 20 router and it performed better than my older 75 one.

I bought the antenna because Amazon customers who bought a Linksys Wireless-G router also bought it. It turns out that it does not fit the Linksys router. I have no idea about compatibility with any other wireless routers.

No, This is for use with a flat panel antenna. No antenna is built in. I use them all the time with Hyperlink 24 dbi flat panel antennas with awesome results. Ubiquiti makes about the best outdoor Wifi Gear out there. They do make one with a built in antenna Google UniFI or better yet go on their website and see what they offer.

Hi Melissa, The signal for that unit only transmits via the handheld that comes with it. As of right now they do not offer an outdoor unit that works via Wi-Fi. Only the indoor units have that capability. Let me know if this helps. Regards, Jesus
