my TIVO Romio Pro is on 1st floor &amp; my router is on the 2nd floor.Do I connect this to cable by my TIVO on 1st floor...or by the router on 2nd floor?

The Roamio Pro should be able to act as a MoCA adapter, so you should only need to buy one adapter, which will go by the router. I would recommend getting a (single) ECB2500C (http://www.amazon.com/Actiontec-Ethernet-Adapter-Service-ECB2500C/dp/B008C1JC4O/) instead unless you have a use for the extra ethernet ports present on the ECB3500T01. You'll connect the adapter's coax input to the coax wall jack near the router and connect the ethernet jack to the router, and it should be able to give internet access to the TIVO through the coax. Note that you may need to upgrade you coax splitters to MoCA compatible ones (like http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00556LI1E), and you will want to have a MoCA blocking filter (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DC8IEE6) on the cable line where it enters your home. Note that I don't own a Roamio, so I haven't tested this personally. However, the reviews for both MoCA adapters seem to indicate that people have used them with the Roamio Plus/Pro successfully.

Should work fine. My computer is on 2nd floor at opposite end of the house where the router is located.

I have one more question I'm going to buy a ps3 soon but I'm in the attic and the router is on the first floor. There are only 2 floors and then the attic in my house. seeing as how the signal has to go through the 2nd floor before it reaches me, is this still a good router and can i expect my connection to be "laggy"? I juss dont want to be losing signal in the middle of a game or not getting the best picture quality from netflix. thanks for any advice.

Hello, This item is an wireless extender, you need to have an wireless router connected to your cable modem first. Then plug this extender downstairs to extend the wireless signal. Thank you.

You would need to hook the composite box 1st then the tivo box if it has the connections, however you may lose some picture quality when finally connecting the tivo to the hd tv. The signal from a cable line is only strongest with the 1st device it is connected too from my experience.

It's been a while since I set it up, but it should connect to another router in Bridge Mode. Download the manual from the TP-LINK website to check for yourself.

I hooked it to my premier and it appears to work better than the TIVO USB G adapter I had before but it doesn't appear to be able to connect to the 5GHz band on my router. Only connects to the 2.4GHz band with all the other devices.

Nelci, If I were to set it up this way would the tv pass the signal thru as if it was coming directly from the cable box? Would it lose it's 5.1 (or any other audio code) signal going thru the TV and out to the receiver? Jack

No, it connects to your wireless router to provide the Tivo guide and functionality. My cable provider rents the Tivo and it must either be connected to the internet or wirelessly to the router. I found out the hard way it stops working in a location without the internet connection. If you don't have a wireless router, get a 300 speed unit. I have a 150 and there is some lag time to load the Tivo menus.

My TIVO Series 2 unit uses a straight dial out for updates. It is faster if you have a wireless router, you have to use the wireless adapter from TIVO because the manufacturer of look-a-like units use a different chip set and will not work. I know this because I tried to use an off-the-shelf unit with bad results. I have not tried to connect via ethernet cable for DSL.

Hello, if I understand you, this is posible. In fact, I have my actual connection very similar to your description. Look, I have one wireless router as my internet source and this is at my living room, so because my room is so far from there I connect one tp-link(1) to this principal router through a ethernet cable and I connect the another Tp-link(2) at my room and in this point with another ethernet cable I connect another wirless router with the same internet signal, so that is magic, now I have internet covering all the place without drop signal. I hope it helps.

I have my router on the first floor and radio on the second floor and it works great. (I'm able to get a good signal on my laptop so before getting the radio my assumption/hope was that this would indicated enough signal strength for the radio to work.)

I am not familiar with MOCA, but yes I believe the Stream has to be hardwired to your Ethernet network. I do not believe that the Roamio has to be hardwired. I believe it can use wifi. It may need a wifi adapter for that, like oder TiVo's do. I don't have a Roamio. My Stream is Ethernet hardwired to an Ethernet switch near my Router. My four TiVo's are Ethernet connected to my Ethernet network. Works great.

Hi. This will extend your wifi from downstairs to the 2nd floor so that you have "full bars" again. My router is in the basement and my extender is on the main floor and my laptop works great on the upper floor. Hope that helps!

You can use or two. I used two for two additional locations. Ended up sending everything back though. My cable is too old and has too much inteferance for really high speeds. My wifi did better.

I have two 9821W cameras. The one with the extension cable is being used wireless. The other one is in a part of my house that does not get a good wireless signal from the router so that one is on ethernet. Amazingly the wireless camera performance is better than the ethernet camera when accessing remotely.

I put it on my fios router, it didn't really help though, I thought it would be over kill, my router is in my basement, I can't tell any difference up stairs
