I have an HP Envy Notebook wiyh Windows 8 Pro and I can send and receive faxes just fine with this modem. Therefore, it should work fine for your application as well.

If you have a wifi router attached to any computer nearby an internet connection. You can use a USB netgear type device and it should work with windows XP windows 7 or 8

I can't say for sure about Windows 8 compatibility, however i see no reason it would not work. The Signal King is basically just an antenna to increase the range your computer so you can pick up WiFi signals. My home WiFi transmitter is in the house and I use a computer in the garage probably 75' from the house. If the weather conditions are right it works to connect me to the internet. If not I do not get a strong enough signal to connect. I had no luck using it at all until I drilled a hole in the garage and mounted the antenna outside pointed directly at the WiFi device in the house. Mounting it outside gave me moderate connection results in good weather. I think the product is fine but due to my distance from the source transmitter it only gives me limited results for successful internet surfing. Hope that helps you. Peace and Love.

if you use windows, the included wifi works fine. if you are building a "hacintosh" you need an external adapter.

Yes, we are running Windows 8.1 and I haven't had any issues. Granted, I use the wifi portion, but it works fine.

Actually, I never got this to work on my Windows 8.1 computer. It blocked the internet from working. I just considered it a loss.

Hi, Yes. It should work with Windows 8 OS using the software version 1.4.5.0 that was released last March 27, 2013.

The version of windows really has no bearing at all since it is just as piece of network hardware. In short, yes it will work.

There is nothing special about the Wi-Fi. It will work just like any other Windows computer. You should have a name for the Wi-Fi. Open your wireless network configuration and look for the name. Select the name and enter a password if you were given one. This is all you should need to do.

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).

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 this will work provided you have a wireless router hooked up to your main computer. You still must havwe a wireless router hooked up to some form of internet service.

yes, there is no reason why it should not work. The real question is does windows 7 support this type of modem. Most systems are backwards compatible so this should work even with window 8. If you have program that will do this like the program that magic jack uses then there is no reason that this would not let you do this.

I bought this for my husband. He uses Windows 8.1 and says Yes, it works with that.

Have an HP Pavilion with Windows 8.1 and it works perfectly.Just plug in the small wireless USB unit into a port and away it goes. Perfect.

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.
