Would this allow me to connect an ethernet enabled cablebox to my router without having to drill holes through my walls to have cable in another room?

It works on a Uverse system via ethernet. It works well if you use it on the slave receivers, little sporadic if you connect the primary (DVR) receiver to it and are watching/recording multiple streams - probably not enough bandwidth.

Yes you should be able to do that. Just imagine your electrical wiring as a very long ethernet cable once you have hooked up the powerline adapters.

that's how I use this product and it has been working without issue for about 5 months.

You don't if your shielded cable is coaxial. The device is an Ethernet router. It operates wirelessly and using CAT 5 or CAT 6 Ethernet cable. Coax cable in your wall is likely your Internet service, and if it is you need a modem.

I am not sure if that is possible. I had a home invasion and purchased this for the 3 day period that it was going to take to install a real security camera system. It has a box that sets next to the TV and I belive it has RCA video out cables. If I have time sometime I will play with the unit; however, I so no instructions for allowing it to use a router

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

I'd have to say "NO" this item is for drilling holes for shelving. Unless I'm missing something, why would you use your Router Table to drill holes?

It would depend on the setup. It's a patch panel which is generally used to help organize your cat6 cable runs. Each port would allow you to punch down cat6 cable (without rj45 connectors) to the back. Unless you are referring to a coax connection for a modem, in that case it would not have a spot for that.

Yes, though you may lose some bandwidth, due to jump across circuits. Have you considered MoCA bridges? They use the coax cabling in your apartment instead of the powerlines. And like power line adapter tears, they can be encrypted for privacy.

In my set up, yes. If you are connecting straight from the cable modem, I don't think so. A cable modem is most likely only going to give out one IP address. However, I have a wireless router connected to the cable modem, so the router handles IP address assignment. I then have a 100' ethernet cable running form the router to this switch. I can have up to four devices connected to the switch at the same time and all will have internet access. Right now I have two connected. Hope that helps to clarify.

Yes. I did this downstairs with a second adapter to switch Ethernet to multiple devices. The first one upstairs gets Ethernet directly from my router.

You can't do that, you need two separate plugins on a router to do that. If your modem only has one ethernet plug, you will need to get a router to provide for more devices.

I believe so. That was my intention when I hung it through a hole in the ceiling and wanted to put the wires running through the attic. My electrician didn't want to do that so I ended up having to do it myself just through the walls. Also, if you're using a cable box, the box has to be within sight so those wires from the screen to the box wouldn't be hidden anyway.

Yes. You can hook up your cable connection to the modem and plug your router into an ethernet port and configure the wifi on your "better" unit by logging into the ip address of your "better" unit. You don't even need to log into the ip of the Arris if you are not going to use the wifi from it. I have done it this way many times in order to verify that another wifi unit was working properly. I hope this helps.

Yes, provided you have a unit sending data and a unit receiving data over coax. I use an actiontec router on one end and this on the other and then just run cat 5 to my computer. Great throughput (compared to wifi) and reliable.

No.If you had two separate Ethernet cables and wanted to use each of them with the same device, but not at the same time, then this would help you.

Yes. All you need to do is connect the plug link into one off the ethernet ports and simply connect the other plug link from the wall to the computer you are trying too get internet service on. I used this for 9 months for bringing internet to my garage and i never had any problems.

This device isn't meant to be hooked directly into an ethernet cable to my knowledge. It is meant to take a coax cable in and have ethernet outs. For example with FiOS, the coax cables are usually already 'hot' in that they carry the internet/tv signals ready for use. This device connects directly to the coax to then provide multiple Ethernet ports. If you're looked to take ethernet from you router and break it out into multiple ethernet connections I think you'll need a powered ethernet bridge.

Yes. I have my Amped hard wired to my providers router. The main router is in a back room office. The other is in the family room. I have a wire rn through the attic and down the wall where my home theater equipment is located. Most modern A/V manufacturers will issue firmware updates for your stuff. Your computer will show all available connections. You can select and deselect from either of them.
