Can this be used in Bridge mode to link via Ethernet to a second unit some distance away

Thanks; very helpful in deciding how to support an office environment in one place and a youth ministry in another. Lots of laptops and mobile systems looking for WiFi access!

I believe you can if you install an identical SwitchLinc in the other location as well. I've thought about doing this, but I'm afraid the 3 way wiring is a little advanced for me. Not to mention that you need to use twice the number of SwitchLincs.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twEvh3Vua8U

hi. yes it can. but it's dependent on the software being used. such as houselinc. you should be able to link it directly to another insteon device as u suggest in your question but I have not tried that

I don't believe so. I had to go about 20 feet but through an external wall and could not get a signal. I wound up just hard-wiring the Extender, running a cable from the source to the extender. The other thing to note here is that I'm not sure I agree that it's an "extender"... it simply started another network. So... with an ethernet cable and any wireless router, you could do the same thing.

It's been a while since I set it up, but it should connect to another router in Bridge Mode. Download the manual from the TP-LINK website to check for yourself.

It's only got 1 Ethernet port. With that said, I've been considering attaching a hub to it to connect more and I can't think of a reason it wouldn't work.

That is the wrong kind of switch for what you want to do. You need something like the "Linksys SE2500 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch ".

No, it won't. It is an alternative to WIFI or Ethernet.Instead of connecting an ethernet wire between two spots, this permits you to use a coaxial cable.

Yes. If the cable is terminated correctly at both ends, you can use the Ethernet ports, otherwise you can test using the supplied alligator clips on the signal generator.

are you inquiring about Ethernet Cable Splitter, I cannot answer this question then, as I have not tried this out.

if your devices have a mini USB connector and have the software in the OS than yes you should be able to connect it the ethernet line

YES! This isn't a SPLITTER, this devices allows you to use all 4 pairs of wire in a CAT-5 cable to enable two ethernet ports. You need TWO devices per cable run. One on each end. 2 wires go to this device then to one wire. Then at the other end one wire goes to this device and two cables go out to your router/switch. Simple.

I don't see why you couldn't. If you set one up as the ap and the other two as client bridges, it should work. Only issue will be line of sight and direction, so if you have line of sight, and they are all in the same general direction, you should be good to go. You also have the ability to broadcast four different ssid's.

I would think this is possible... but you need to keep the packet hops to a minimum... you are already at 4 with just the bridges with this given configuration.

yes. The bridge is simply a point to point device, so on the distant end you'll need a singe computer or ethernet switch or a wireless router

No. You can use one of these splitters on each end to carry two cables over one in a pinch, but will still need two ports on the router or switch for two devices to connect.

I have not tried this configuration, but, this product acts like an ethernet cable using your home power. As long as the units identify themselves to each other, I think it might work.
