Will this Bridge connect to my already existing WI-FI internet connection so I may connect my ROKU via Ethernet and obtain the internet connection?

This is a bridge. You would be able to connect multiple Ethernet devices to this bridge if you wanted. You're still using your WiFi. If you have a buffer problem this unit, or any other you purchase would not likely remedy that problem.

Yes, you can connect the bridge (WES610N) wirelessly to your existing network and plug Ethernet devices to the bridge.

It should. I used it to connect to my Wi-Fi and then hard wired a device to the bridge in another room. Was easy to setup and have had no issues with connectivity.

Yes, you'll need an existing Internet "wired" connection., this is a router

No. The device you are referring to is called a "wireless bridge" (wifi repeater). This device is a wireless router that makes a wired connection accessible to wireless devices.

If your TV is not close enough to hard wire the ROKU, then you'll need a wifi router.

Yes. I did this downstairs with a second adapter to switch Ethernet to multiple devices. The first one upstairs gets Ethernet directly from my router.

Yes. Connect the modem to the WAN port on the router, and connect the computer and roku to the LAN ports on the router.

You don't need a "separate Ethernet". This TV will connect wirelessly to your existing 802.11n wi-fi network. If it can't because the wireless signal is too weak in the other room, you can (1) run an Ethernet cable from your router to the TV or (2) buy a Powerline adapter kit to send Ethernet over your power lines and connect an Ethernet cable from the powerline adapter in the other room to your TV.

I needed to connect to a projector and it works great. I don't see why it wouldn't work with w roku.

Nope. It does not have an Ethernet port. And by the way, it works flawlessly. I'm 83, have been horsing around with computers since the late 60's and can find nothing to complain about with the Roku 1. I think the Roku 2 might have an Ethernet port? Good luck.

What it does is place your internet signal on the electrical lines in your place. The remote plug has an ethernet connection which you can connect directly to an ethernet port on a device. There is nothing preventing that "ethernet device" from being another Wi-Fi Access Point. Connect that ethernet cable from the remote plug to a Wireless Access Point's WAN (incoming) port and that should work as an extender. Granted you would have to buy and configure a 2nd Wireless Adapter... You might consider something like Hootoo HT-WR01.

No. I connect my Roku to the TV. You use a different cord or wireless through your routor.

This adapter only connects your TV, or whatever you have connected to it, to your network. This is not a streaming device like a roku or apple tv. If your TV has streaming software on it, then yes.

Yes. I bought a roku stick for my mother and she uses it with mediabridge. There would be no problems using it with a roku stick.

Yes, it will. Once it's connected to the existing router (as a booster/extender), you can then connect an Ethernet cable from it to another device that you would like to have internet access.

The simple answer is yes, if you are able to connect the Roku streaming device directly via an Ethernet port on the Linksys device. However, if the wireless range extender signal was strong enough you might not notice too much difference.

I only needed my computer to go through the set-up process(key in codes to link some channels and register my Roku with Amazon to be able to play Prime films...) and then this little Roku only needs wifi signal to work, not my computer at all. Your internet speed needs to be at a above minimum rate so you don't need to wait for "loading" many times through out the film. I had to help one of my friends to upgrade her slow AT&T; internet to double her speed then she doesn't have those "loadings" on her screen anymore.

Sorry but no, this unit only connects to a WIFI network not through an Ethernet connection. For Ethernet connections you need an access point like the AP20000G.
