what networks can it be used for? ?

You have to have a sim card - any phone that uses GSM service will have a removable card that carries your service with it. T-Mobile, AT&T;, Cincinnati Bell, Cellular One, and any regional provider that uses GSM networks will be compatible with this phone. Verizon is not a GSM provider.

I would like to know this, too...will this phone work with Verizon, for example?

It works as a hot spot for any device with Wifi capability. But you'll need to have Clearwire in your area.

As far as I can tell, the best use for this device is a paperweight. It did nothing to expand my wifi range.

If its unlocked and dual band it can be used with any network. Be cautious though, I bought two of this phone that was said to be unlocked, upon receiving them they weren't unlocked.

im not sure. I couldn't get my entire network to recognize the device.As long as it is a network connected device, yes you can! Check it out at http://www.lacie.com/us/products/range.htm?id=10007

You can connect this to any router or wifi hot spot. I have 2 of these and use them to get N access on the 5ghz range on my dual band router at home. They are small and easy to use.

it will handle anything you can plug into it. has coax for tv or cable and phone protection too. actually i recently got an apc one similar that also protects network ethernet. APC makes great stuff.

It should work well for either. Im using the one that I bought here on a cable connection, but the one at my office is the same router, brand new not refurbished...and that connection is DSL.

Yes, very limited though and in general this machine has had significant issues communicating with my computers on the network. If I could get rid of it, I would. They also offer no support. I would NOT buy this again.

I just picked this up august 2015. It CAN be used as a wired WAC (wireless access point). When u do the setup wizard it gives you the option set up as a wifi-extender or a wireless access point.

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.

I use it exclusively for "Hangouts" video conferencing and to stream music and video. I have a separate computer to handle networking. I have not attempted to network with other computers, but it does recognize the various computer networks I sign onto. I believe it runs the google proprietary operating system

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.

You configure it with a PC. Then it should work on anything. I use it for a cluster of PC's connected to a network switch. Works better than a USB wireless card.

This is used to connect to ethernet cable so that the device can access the internet. It is not used for your purpose.

I'm sorry. I've only ever used it for pc connectivity and really don't know. Wish I could be more help.

You need to decide how you'll use it, as an 'extender' or an Ethernet port. It will 'talk' to the router in both modes (no hard connection). As an extender, any device within range will detect and be able to use it.
