Can this be used in two places under two different wifi networks, or does it need to be set up from scratch every time I move it?

single setup, single location or you have to reconfigure. The accounts etc (Belkin) etc say the same (as it uses their site for access), but you would need to reset the wifi at the location you are going to.Since there is no local NAT - that is, no IP addresses to deal with, you could move it without reconfiguration IF the sites share a wifi SSID and credentials.

I think you have to recreate a new Wi-Fi network, I haven't looked too deeply yet but the system is very unstable and not a very easy camera to set up in the first place, they even tell you it may take several trys, I think it took me 10-12 times but I also was setting up about 6 other Belkin devices at the same time, needs a clock so it doesn't run all the time, the alerts will wear you out. I am going to try and use a Belkin Wi-Fi plug that does have a scheduler to see if it wont knock it off line on a restart,

No, You can make it in a bridge mode with a different SSID on the same network.

I'm pretty sure that it shouldn't be able to function simultaneously on two seperate networks. I believe the two ports are for redundancy. But if it IS possible, then the networks would have to share IP space because you can only assign the terastation one single IP address

yes you can configure it as a repeater or a bridge so that it will give you a wireless signal of the same network or you can use it in router mode and you can share the internet and set uo a new network

You do not need a second one. Put this out at the site you want it and connect it to your existing wifi. Will go 250 ft line of site

Kind of. The way it would work is you would connect to the Wi-Drive with WiFi (the drive itself is a WiFi base station) and then you can access files stored on it. You can not access the drive from your device without having WiFi turned on and being connected to the drive. If you then want to connect to another WiFi spot, while maintaining access to the drive, the drive itself can be connected to the internet over WiFi and provide said access to your device while your device is connected to it.

I think it is possible, yes, but as someone mentioned you would have to go through doing a reset, then set up at each location. It isn't as simple as a plug and play. Now for travel perhaps a product call "Almond" would be an easier option. It has easy set up, a touch screen, I don't think it is quite as powerful as the amped wireless [I have both] but it does a great job, as I said it is much easier set up for travel

Nop But I use some Velcro and problem solve and it better because depending on the location of the house u put it and where u have it wifi it should be place in different position so u don't hace connection problems

Yes it will do what you want only problem if you go to multiple locations you would always have to enter the web interface to change the wireless access information, other than that it is basically great for what you need it to do. I did email the developer to upgrade the firmware so that it could store multiple ssid to auto connect to whatever is in range so far no reply.

Since this product does not function the way that a standard WiFi repeater does, the short answer is no. The long answer is that once you have cloned the WiFi access point from your main router to the device you can move it any where in your house to the have the device broadcast it's own WiFi access point that has the same information as your main AP. For example after your have cloned the AP of your main router, you can then take 100m of extension cable to a house half way down your block and plug the device in. It will then broadcast a WiFi signal that you could connect to using the same credentials as your main AP (now this is a very stupid thing to do, but the point is the same). With a standard WiFi repeater it has to be in range of your main AP to get the WiFi information to repeat.

U can put it anywhere your ethernet cable reach, as long as the cable is connected to ur router, or whereever ur wireless signal gets. Remember that if u want to use wireless, u must configure it first with the ethernet patch cable plugged in.

Absolutely yes. I use mine at two different addresses on the Charter system (summer retreat). The router doesn't know where it's at. I've had a few routers, wired as well as wireless. Competition that starts with a L.This Netgear is the best. Trouble free and easy to setup. Rebooted a couple times, no sweat.

It uses the same network name. If you are closer to your main router and the signal is stronger there it will use the main router. If you wonder off across the country and the extender has a better signal to your router then it will switch to it. I have my extender out in my workshop 100' from my main router and I can carry my laptop from my house out to the workshop without loosing the signal. You use the same security code as you use for the main router. i have a Bi-quad antenna connected to one antenna pointed at my house and the antenna that came with it on the other. I get excellent signal strength and the same upload and download speeds as being connected to the main router.

I have tried with 2 floor and no problem but as per theory if room/ floor has many walls or obstacles then range will be bit less. In that case you can keep router in most open space.

ehternet hub, switch, router...as long as the device is in the same subnet or there are proper ACL's in place to make it happen between subnets, it'll work as well.

My wifi is located downstairs and the kids can be upstairs on the other side of the house with no problems. haven't tested exactly how far they can go, but hope this helps!

The way I used it was I plugged it into the wall at the far far end of my house and then attached a second router to broadcast a second wifi network. Because PowerLine is basically ethernet through your power outlets and doesn't broadcast a wireless network by itself.
