Yes, you need to install the software, then right click "pixpo" icon, select compatible mode; then it will work with Windows 8.

Yes you can but i would recommend connecting it via Lan cable to avoid any error when you want to set it to your requirements because it will ask for that.

Yes. It's a regular Windows 8 computer with USB ports and WiFi, so any computer that supports either of those methods can be used (which is to say, pretty much any computer made in the last 15 years).

First, I had no luck getting this device to work at all. Second, the operating system will not have an affect on the wireless signal. So, yes, if you can get it to work, it will work with Windows 8.

Yes I use it with my desktop PC. It comes with dongle to plug in USB. That is how it communicates with remote. Works well.

Well, yes and no, Officially they do not support it but in reality it does work to view content but the user interface doesn't work due to Windows 8 changing how they communicate with the host PC. In order to use it on Windows 8 and control what you are watching you need to use their remote application, essentially you remotely control that PC/extender.

I do not know , mine operates off Windows. I am having problems staying connected for any period of time. Still not sure I like it, it may be me and the way I set it up.

If you meant whether Windows 8.1 computers can connect to this router. Then the answer is "Yes". I have connected (wirelessly) a Windows 8.1 laptop and 8.1 desktop along with several Android devices. This router supports standard protocols and authentication methods, so as long as your computer has the correct drivers, this will work. Hope this response helps.

yes, it is easy to map as a network drive. I have mapped it to both Windows 7 and 8, as well as Linux

Unit doesn't have anything to do with what operating system you use--it simply "amplifies" your wi-fi signal. So, yes, it will work in windows 8.

yes it can - this is a network device so you can install the client software of just access it via the network

It will work for any Operating System. A router's function is independent of the operating system of the devices on the network.However, I did not attempt to use the CD provided software with Windows 8. I just connected my laptop to it via an ethernet cable, allowed the router to assign (DHCP) my laptop an IP address, then used Firefox and the router's web interface to configure it.

It has worked with all Windows versions up to 7; I don't know about 8. It is not wireless.

No There is not, I plugged a wireless USB device into the front to gain remote access to the internet. There is a LAN card for a direct Ethernet connection to the internet though.

Yes it works with Windows 8. The operating system is irrelevant. It is an amplifier. It takes your existing Router signal and amplifies it so it will reach areas where the current signal is poor. You must however have a signal to boost. The placement is important. I use mine for an area that is about 80' from the router, and through two walls, one concrete, one 2x4's with sheet rock. My signal before using the range extender was appx. -95 db/m. After placing the extender between the router and my office my signal is -36 db/m. It really worked better than I had hoped. With a Netgear WND4500 Router and this device I average 5mb/sec. Fine for HD Video streaming and great for internet browsing/email, etc. Yes it works with Windows 8.

Yes. If you are at all tech savvy, you can hook this up to your home network and then open the port on your router so that you can access this drive from the internet. I haven't done this yet myself but I do know it is possible. Search the web or some forums for ways to access your home network remotely.
