Not sure what u mean by soft wired, but yes, u do have to plug in a cable to your router so the panel should be pretty close.

I have an apple router extended wirelessly from my main apple router with no lan cable. Then I connected the eyez on device with a LAN cable. Everything connected and has worked without a problem for almost a year now.

No - it is a cable modem. Would be the first device in a home / small biz setup. Will need a router to attach to. Recommend a NetGear N-Series device.

Matt, You have to buy two of them. One to plug into the router via Ethernet cable then plug one in where your computer is and another Ethernet cable (neither supplied) into it. It uses your homes wiring to boost the signal (supposedly). I was so aggravated by the time I received the 2nd one that I just sent them both back and bought a high dollar (NETGEAR 1900) router and a even higher dollar (NETGEAR) wireless extender and I'm very pleased with the outcome.Hope this helps with you question.

May also be able to use a network cable to plug into your router. I would just plug it it in to the network to see what happens. How do you currently have it connected? Or is this going to be new?

Yes it does... So you have the option of connecting to your router either wireless or hard wired.

The cable from Comcast goes in, and then the output is Ethernet network. So one cable output in your home becomes Internet, not all of them. the modem/router (this serves as both) has wifi for your other devices.

Hello, Valentin. Yes this computer can be plugged into a wired network. The wired internet is good when you have problems with connecting to wireless access point. Or just want to get faster connection. If you have a slow N connection , ie 65mb/s then you might want to use the wired ethernet cord. A fast N connection would be about 300mb/s so using the wired connection will be more cumbersome and the tradeoff of wires getting in the way wont justify the need for it. I have the slow N connection which is why I use the wired sometimes.

My apologies, Larry I miss informed you. It does come with a power cord, but does NOT come with an Ethernet cable. This comes from the "Quick Install Manual" on the On-Networks website.

The only hard wiring required is for power ( which is delivered through a POE on the Cat5 cable). The unit needs to be configured as a repeater first, though. It can be confiured through the wireless, but save yourself time (and hassle) by connecting directly to the unit and configuring it before installation.

No. This is only a modem. That means it can translate data between cable (coming from the wall) and Ethernet (going to your home network). If you have cable internet and you're using this modem, you will also need a "wireless router" in order to use wireless. Try searching for that.

It is a DSL modem that is wireless. It is not compatable with cable. If your internet provider is DSL, you should verify with them that this particuar modem will work for you.

There are two ways to connect - ethernet wire to your router (best way) or use a ethernet powerline connection. I ordered the Linksys powerline for $114 and literally plugged it in and it works. It uses your existing electrical outlet to transmit the signal and lost not speed from my cable modem. If you use a traditional wifi it can be limited on speed and transmission can be choppy.

No this unit is for wired direct to network! Works good though, as I have had mine for quite some time now!

No it needs to plug into the wall. I returned it. Could not get it to work consistently over the internet.

I've used it on at&t dsl router, now I'm in south carolina using carolina broadband cable router and hooked up and works fine. I have my ooma hooked up to router with one ethernet cable, hooked to router like a hardwired PC would be. Had the wireless thing, but after awhile, my ooma went weird, took awhile to figure out, but was the USB advice...Once I went hardwired, been fine.
