Does the second Powerline box only provide the ethernet wired extension from that one box... or any electrial outlet in that room?

The second box provides a wired connection to any electric socket in the house or business.

Hello Again Dawn...I was an installer/repairman for the telephone for 30 years. I have Magic Jack too! I have it plugged into the router in another room with a splitter which sends the dial tone from the Magic Jack to the rest of my house through the telephone wires. If you send your signal through the electrical wires with the Net Gear I would think you could plug your Magic Jack in the USB Port of your computer and then plug your telephone into the Magic Jack! Tom S.

The CAT5 cable that connects to your computer/laptop must be connected to the powerline adapter "box" at that particular outlet (wherever you plugged it in). You can purchase additional adapters if you need a wired connection at other outlets throughout the house/apartment.

Hello Dawn...You can go to Walmart or Staples and get a device that allows you to plug in multiple devices into the Ethernet Powerline Plug! Tom S.

They are identical. You Ethernet from your router to one, plug that one to any power outlet. Plug your second powerline anywhere you want to receive Ethernet thru any wall jack and connect the Ethernet cable from your second powerline to your device.

Hello...The way it is supposed to work you plug one into an electrical outlet along with your internet USB plug from your router. Plug the second one into the electrical outlet where you want to rout the internet to and plug your USB cord into it and the device you are routing it to. Hope that answers your question. Tom S.

Yes, that's how I ran - one Ethernet cable. The separate 12V connector is in the case you don't have a POE switch.

Of course it cones with its own power cord, i am not sure about the ethernet cable, i have those around if it doesn't

No. Powerline adapters are for wired access. What will help is a wireless extender. A variety is available on Amazon.

If you looking to pull off just Ethernet it needs to be powered. Some directv boxes power the device via the coax so the ac adapter is not required

NO. I also thought I would be able to hook up two computers. Even tried using two plugs. You have to get a terminal-one of those little boxes that usually has jack inputs for 4 ethernet lines. Amazon has them for fairly cheap.

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.

Hi Brian, you can use two extenders in one network, but you won't be able to "chain" two of them together to further extend the signal. If you're having trouble getting signal downstairs even with an extender, you might want to look into a Powerline setup!

I believe mine is plugged into the wall outlet directly as per Netgear's instructions. :-) I know it's a "guy thing," we don't read instructions, but right there on page 3 of the Installation Guide says in bold red WARNING! Do not plug Powerline devices into a power strip.

It is not possible. Why can't you run another ethernet cable from your router directly to the TV?

There really isn't a real set up. You just plug it into your wall power plus and connect via your Ethernet wire. Good luck.

That is correct, does not matter where you plug the ethernet in from the router or modem. Just need to get the internet into the switch and then it does the rest, pretty easy plug and play. Other outlets can then be plugged into to any device requiring internet. Hope this helps

Yes, they typically come packaged with two. I recently upgraded to the newer and much smaller NetGear Powerline 200 Mini Ethernet Adapters (2-Pack) - White/ Model: XAVB1301100PAS SKU: 1612494. They seem to be working well for $50-$60 for the pair.

No but any Ethernet cable works fine. It's well worth the price and it worked great for me !

No, unless you have (1) a router that can generate two free LAN lines that can be fed to the other end of the Ethernet jack, and (2) cable wiring that is CAT5 or newer (true for all new homes/installations). A cheaper solution might be to use a switch such as TRENDnet TE100-S5 5-Port Ethernet Switch (5 x 10/100Mbps Auto-MDIX RJ-45 Ports) that costs only $11.99 and will give you 4 ports instead of two.

you need 2, it comes just like it is shown. I was using it to extend so if not plugged into the router or modem, you also need an ethernet coupler, similar to what you use to connect to phone lines to make them longer, but for ethernet cords.

Yes works very. You plug in the Ethernet cable and power adpater to power and router or switch. Then run a ethernet cable to unit left side bottom i think and this powers up the unit
