This 'splitter' allows you to run two network connections on the same cable because most network connections only require half the wires. You still need a router or network switch that provides Two connections / network ports. You can not 'split' a network connection like you can an audio connection.

It doesn't actually split a network connection - it allows you to run two network connections over the same cable. So on one end you would connect your two devices and on the other end you would connect two network ports on your router / switch.

Should work fine. It is the same signal going thru splitter to both TV's. This Splitter has worked fine for me with TV's in Living Room and Bedroom. Can have both on or just one. Picture quality no different than without splitter.

You don't have to run an ethernet cable to your Roku, - But you can if you choose to. It also works withwireless internet. I prefer to run an ethernet cable from my router because the signal where I live is betterwith the cable as opposed to fighting the prime times of wireless use in my neighborhood.This model allows for an ethernet input. Most of newer models of Roku are wireless only. Look at what the model offers as far as connectivity before you choose. But, you can't go wrong with a Roku. They are robust and reliable.

A splitter will not work with a router, what you need is what is called a switched hub.

All I know is we purchased it as a splitter so we could send a signal to two TVs and it did not work! I'm not sure if it will do what you want but if it doesn't you can always return it.

This adapter only connects your TV, or whatever you have connected to it, to your network. This is not a streaming device like a roku or apple tv. If your TV has streaming software on it, then yes.

It comes with RCAs also My tv is so old that my Roku is on RCA also and I need a splitter to use both

No what you need for that is called a diplexer. I used one to combine our satellite signal with my roof antenna. Not sure you can use it to combine Internet with broadcast TV. You will need two of them one on the source and one at the room you want to split them back out. You can find them many electronic stores. Good luck with it.

I purchased for similar problem, did not work for me either, even with a splitter. If you find a way for this to work, I'd like to know

If you're referring to a wired Roku, yes it will, but from the router to the Roku. You would then have to connect the Roku to the TV with an HDMI cable. Depending on the model of Roku you have, you can connect it to your router with a cat5 or 6 cable, or wirelessly, the former usually providing the fastest connection.

no. this splitter starts at one source and goes to two different tvs. not one tv to two different sources. sorry. i will say that product is out there. make sure you have good hdmi cables.

If I understand the question, I'm afraid that this is not designed for the scenario you describe. You need a switch or hub. These splitters are intended to be used as pairs, one at either end of a cable run, and will allow the data from 2 Ethernet cables to travel across a single line to another 2 ethernet cables hooked up to this adapter on the other end.

The problem with this splitter is that both have to be used at the same time and it is very important that they are initialized in the proper sequence and stay on continuously. It sounds to me this would not be the solution to your problem. Hope this helps!

I bought this for a couple bucks a while back from another site and was hoping that it would work as a splitter (as you describe). It unfortunately won't work in reverse, so this will not work for you. You (and me) need a splitter.

No. It is a passive splitter. It will only display the image on one tv if the other is off. If both are on you will not get a image on either. You need a powered (active) splitter to do what you want.

it should, the splitter will only read 1 connection at a time. use an ab switch.

Yes it's a switch not splitter so only 1 source will go through at a time and it shouldn't matter if both are on.
