Can this be connected to ethernet jack on 2nd floor and used as a Access point? Other end of this ethernet is conn to VZN fios router in basement.

I think it should work. I did use it as an ethernet jacl for my computer with comcast cable on the router in the 2nd floor.

I see others have answered this - yes, you can use it as an access point or repeater. You can even set it up to bridge two WLANs.

Kind of an odd question, No. The idea behind an extender is that it sits in another room or area or a different floor, but can communicated with the router to "extend" the routers signal. Best of Luck!

No need. I have my main router hooked up to main FIOS Internet line on 3rd floor and the extender is on main 1st floor so that my TV on main floor and in basement can get internet by WIFI. It also allows me to get Internet outside. I can move around throughout the house using my tablets, cell phone, ipods blueray players and laptops using wifi. Son connects his game system and we don't lose connection. It's best to keep your network secured. Hope this helps.

Yes, you sure can. This is exactly the case I'm using it now: A Powerine 500 WiFi AP pair to extend the internet access from the router in my IT center to a home office with cable and wireless connectivity, and a Powerline 200 to get the internet access to another room with ethernet calbe connection.

In my 2 story house I had it located in one corner of the basement and it would easily work across the house on the second floor. This was a great router for its time and I had mine for over 8 years when it finally died.

I would say yes. But have not tried that exact scenario. I have plugged it in a network Jack that was connected to a poe-switch and it work fine

We live in a two story house, my husband uses this with his computer on the lower floor while our internet is set up on the second floor. It works fine, no issues. Hopes this helps

Yes. It's the only way to use it. Plug in your LAN line from the wall jack.

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.

I have a network consisting of 4 units, 3 on the second floor and 1 in the basement. I am not exactly sure how the AC wires run, but I would guess that the point to point distances (satellites to the FIOS connection in the basement) are 30 feet or more. The speed at each terminal is 40 - 50 Mb/s, as measured by Verizon's broadband speed test. So I would guess that your garage connection will work quite well.

Yes it will work as an access point..It does have an rj-45/Ethernet connector.....You must check either the Ubiquity website or YouTube for video tutorials on how to set it up as an access point though..

If you mean you use this device to access your wireless router with an Ethernet cable attached to your computer's network card then yes. I use it to access my wireless router from across the house with machines that are too old to have wireless network cards. Hope this is clear.

Yes you can connect the network port on this device to a 10/100/1000 switch.But, from my FIOS experience, where I use this, depending any heavy FIOS video traffic in combination with the exact nature of your coax type, coax connectors and how crimped and the bandwith of any coax cabling splitters you may have in your coax setup (signal to noise ratios greatly differ between coax splitters, as there are differing quality coax splitters) you may not always get full gigabit speed on that connection.

LOLOL I hear you. My GUESS is that if Verizon gives you an Ethernet feed from their Fios run, then absolutely YES. My guess is they will try to sell you or "word" you into thinking you have to have their router. Ask them clearly if you will get an Ethernet feed without their router. As part of their service, from some of the FIOS installs I have seen, their "smartjack" has an Ethernet output so you might be lucky. hope that helps.

Yes. I have Verizon Fios. I was able to connect two different locations to my Fios network.

If your Verizon modem has an Ethernet port, yes. You would run the Ethernet cable from your modem to this module, then plug in the remote module in another location within the house. Mind you, you will have two wireless networks. I name mine MyAddress and MyAddress-Extended
