Is this designed for high speed broadband I internet

Yes, it's fine for broadband internet. But remember this is a switch, not a router, so you will still need a router or router/bridge device to connect your devices to your ISP.

No it is a router. Some form of wifi or ethernet has to be available For it to do its job.

This adapter only works well if you are next to base AND you have a very high speed internet. I'd sell mine back for a nickel

This is Cat5e cable so theoretically it should be able to hit gigabit speeds. If you know networking you know that theoretical speeds are just that normally (theoretical not practical). As a previous answer said this should be plenty fast for a home, and I should do well for most businesses (as long as the network run is not over 300ft). If you have something that needs gigabit speeds. I would recommend the normally unnecessary Cat6 cables. If you are looking for the difference in cable specs here is a good site talking about the differences. http://www.lifehacker.com.au/2013/04/ask-lh-whats-the-difference-between-cat5-cat5e-and-cat6-cables/ If I helped you upvote my answer.

Based on other customer reviews, I would say no- it does not contain enough Internet for todays most common needs. I would suggest upgrading to something faster- a 9600 baud modem would be good, though a 14,400 would really give you a big boost.

Yes - the wired connections are Gigabit Ethernet speed. The wireless is up to 300Mbps.

I used this cable to wire my PC directly to my router. An Internet speed test shows me getting 28.6Mbps down and 5.88Mbps up, as of this moment...which is at leas as fast as what I pay for. I have no way of testing the LAN throughput, though, if you are looking for Gbps machine-to-machine transfers. I suspect that it would be fine.

The equipment is capable of speeds much faster than most internet connections. What is unknowable until you hook it up is what speed the wiring in your house will give. My wiring doesn't always give the highest speed setting the equipment is capable of, but still gives me full HD on my 60 inch screen.

While this might seem to be a good price, be aware that this package uses older Powerline standards. What you want to maximize throughput is the latest version (500Mbps), which is the NETGEAR Powerline 500 Mbps 4-port Network Adapter Kit (XAVB5004), not the model you're asking about. While you are still somewhat at the mercy of your home's wiring, the latest model uses adaptive technology to maximize throughput. I upgraded to the 500Mbps model and stream 1080p through my home without issues.

Regular broadband connection should work fine . I have a 3mbps speed internet connection and it works fine.

Yes, although you will be able to get speeds of 1.5 gigabits per second only.

No, it is just a cable modem for internet only. It's not for a broadband phone line or a router to connect other computers too. You would need a router to have more devices hooked to it and have wireless capability. It does work well with Comcast internet only tho.

it has both a Gigabit Ethernet and Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11b/g/n connectivity for broadband Internet connection

Yes it is. So far it's working great. I got rid of my unlimited calls (phone landline) and my DSL. Now we have high speed cable for our internet, and MagicJack plus.

I would not think so. I seem to have general high-speed connectivity issues with it. May be just the one I got, but I don't know for sure.

Sure but the bridge will not pass data at gigabit speed. I think it will only pass 11 mbps which for us is not an issue since we only have 6 mbps internet. The bridge replaces a wire but will be limited in it's bandwidth but will not affect anything on the main router. I always add a switch and a WAP after the bridge to expand the system.

No, this modem will support up to 38Mbps. If you have a 50Mbps plan, you will only see up to 38Mbps.
