It should work, but really depends on the distance; your interior walls generally won't have insulation (will be hollow), so where it would interfere with a signal, it wouldn't degrade it completely. If we're talking just a room or so away, I'd say no problem; though if we're talking a floor/ceiling, I'd say you might have issues.

I wouldn't trust it in walls. I bought two and one of them was DOA and after you've installed it in wall and it fails, you're screwed.. run cat5/6 and use baluns... the right ones will carry an IR signal to your box as well, sure they cost more but they're easier to replace than ripping up your walls and replacing this garbage HDMI cable.

Absolutely. My cable box is in the wall behind my TV and this thing works fantastically for repeating the signal. That is of course if you cable box remote is sending it's signal over IR and not RF.

It's not ir and does go through the wall in our office. We have had no problems with it and are quite happy. You can see (in the picture) the receiver has an antenna.

Yes it can. I installed mine through the wall. We really like our unit. Enjoy.

No it only works for over the air signals (OTA). And DO NOT buy this box! The company has shut down the DVR service and abandoned all its customers.

Yes, It works from room to room with no problem. In fact I have one in my RV that changes the TV in the house.

Your doing what I did - the short answer is yes. My dish has 4 cables coming from the LMBs and I needed one more cable to run to a room which had a Directv receiver. I ran one of the LMB cables to the multi-switch input and two out to different receivers. The switch worked fine for several years until last month when I lost channels on the receiver coming from the switch. I troubleshot it to the multi-switch. I bought another and I'm back in business.

yes, it works through walls and windows. It seems to be a radio signal and works to about 30 feet at my house.I have it plugged into a protected outside outlet and use it from inside the house to operate a fountain pump.

Hi,I am sorry to say, but this unit cannot penetrate through walls. this will make you, or anyone who is in the apt very sick.

No it will not work through walls. It is line of sight. The furthest I can get from it in my house is 15 paces, about 40-45 feet and it works every time at that range. It has never false alarmed or missed movement. In my opinion is much better than the two others I tried. I wanted another one but Amazon has been sold out for a long time.

As I know, this device, has a setup to up to 4 channels.I mean, up to four devices working near each other.That´s mean only 4 devices together on a house, more than this you will get troubles.

Yes, the signal will go through walls. It does not have to be a line of sight. It needs fresh batteries often to keep it working all the time. I estimate I am putting in new AA batteries once every couple of months. David

If your cable box has RCA plugs out available and your tv on the wall has RCA plugs in it will work. You still have to have wires running to the TV from the Receiver of the Nyrius but it is a good solution if your wiring for the cable is not near where your TV is mounted. Signal will not be HD.

That's correct. In my case I have a directv 4 splitter. It is powered and it is there's. I have 4 boxes. I split one of the boxes off the directv splitter with the Zinwell for my son's box. Now have 5 boxes. You can watch what you want on either box.(Different channels). Works great with no loss of single. Have had hooked up that way for 6 months. Of course any box you hook up has to be activated by directv for it to work.

I use mine from the living room to control a device in the garage, so through one wall. It works perfectly.

As long as there is a cable box hooked up to your provider, it will work. The sending unit hooks into the back of the cable box and the receiver to the TV. If you wish to make a channel change you have to see that a signal can reach the sending unit at the cable box.
