I am look for a wireless answer to having to run coax cable through my attic. Can this work as a wireless cable box?

No. This box is simply a modulator that will allow a signal to be split and transmitted across a coax. I have installed one in my media room to transmit the satellite signal to an upstairs bedroom which is coaxed. This box allows you to avoid having another satellite or cable box. I've connected an RF/IR converter to the TV in this bedroom with the other end in front of the satellite receiver. The bedroom can then control the satellite without requiring another satellite receiver box. But of course, only one person can control that receiver (either the bedroom or the media room).

No, this box only modulates an input onto a selected CATV channel. You need something else to transmit over the air.

This device must be connected by coaxial cable, and as such will not work as a wireless device. This device will also not function as a cable box. The unit will not decode any signal, just transmit a signal on a channel of your choosing.

I have mine connected to the coax cable from the wall and then an Ethernet cable to my router. I would assume that connecting it to the computer would work.

I'm sure you could, but I don't think you should have to. A single coax cable would go into the attic to connect to the antenna/amplifier. In the bedroom, you could connect the power splitter to the coax. One coax from the splitter would connect to a power outlet, in the bedroom. The other coax from the splitter would connect to the back of the TV/Tuner, again in the bedroom.My setup has the antenna/amplifier in the attic, and the power for the amplifier is plugged in the basement.

Depends on how far the cable runs are. You might need a video DA to amplify the signal. Are you installing the antenna in the attic?

Yes - that is the same setup I'm running. Keep in mind, if you're running an antenna on the same set of coax - it will not work correctly.

Yes, I have that set up in my bedroom. Coax into adapter, coax out to Tivo, ethernet out to another router that feeds my PS4 and Apple TV. Is your wireless router already setup as a MoCa router (Verizon)? If not then you will need the 2 pack

You can, but I think you'd be better off finding a way to attach it to the window frame and run the wire. Mine is outside, and the wire goes inside straight to a small amplifier then to the coax house wiring.

First of all, make sure that your cable signal isn't scrambled (requires a decoder box). If it isn't, what you are looking for is called "coaxial cable" ("coax cable" for short), and can be found for under $10 on Amazon.

To my knowledge the Axess is not a wireless device.. if your cable box does not physically connect to the TV itself it won't work.. If it does connect and you are not receiving a signal, I would check to make sure you are on the right input signal and that the cable box is working properly..

you need a coax cable (I had this same problem, I got one from Radio Shack and problem solved)

Yes, you can mount the Cable Cutter in the attic. Although, in general this is not the best location for any antenna so mileage may vary. The Cable Cutter can be mounted outdoors as well as indoors. You can use any standard RG6 coaxial cable and yes you can split the signal. We usually recommend a drop amp if you are going to split the signal to boost the signal strength before you split the signal.

Not sure if this answers you or not , but we ran a cable wire and we have cable tv on this. We get most of the cable stations without having a cable box. We love this under the counter tv in our kitchen.

Apologies. Your question is more technical than I can answer. I just hooked the thing up and it worked (well). I run nothing more on the coax in my house than the antenna signal. I should add add that the signal strength has degraded somewhat (fewer channels) since I installed the amplifier in January, but the decrease in performance could be attributable to something other than the amp. Will investigate before winter.

No it does not work from a standard Coax cable- THIS CABLE will not work for that ,it is some type of specialty coax hookup not for home

Nope. This is for networking cables only. Ethernet and old school T ring style network cables. Coax (like for your TV) will not fit.

I have not tried it using it with wireless cable boxes myself but it does have an ethernet cable connection and a USB port.

not sure mine is hooked up with an Ethernet cable if the wireless is close by i would think you would have no problem.
