Can someone tell me how much length this extender adds to router bits?

I just went to garage and measured how much extension I actually get when the extender is fully seated in the 1/2" collet of the router: 1 1/4" extension. This extender is very beefy but I did experience slight chatter but that was resolved with a better mount of the router in the router table. It is recommended you use a 1 3/4" hole so the extender can be used above the surface of the router table.

About an inch and a half. In my router (Dewalt 625) it allows the collar to clear the router tabletop (Kregg) just enough to be able to get the allen wrench to be used to remove the bits. This is with the extender all the way in the router collet.

Mine measures 1-5/16" and need to add another 1/8" if using the 1/4" adapter. It could be more if the extender was not fully inserted.

Check cable length; I used mine for a homebrew underwater robot and ended up doing an "extension".

Should work...I use it to extend a Cisco valet plus wireless router and it works pretty good. It does drop te signal every once in a while but is easily reset by turning off and then back on.

I have not tried this but have had two extenders one after the other from the router. I would think that it would work fine. But call Hawking to be sure. Their tech support has been good for me. Henry blue ridge

I don't remember exactly but my assumption is that the total package was around 10"x10"x 14". This is an approximation based on the size of the router motor.

I don't think length has anything to do with it. I would be more concerned with your modem and actual internet connection by your provider. I have had no issues with this product.

Outside diameter 2 & 11\16", mounting holes just under 2" apart. Or you can do what I did and make your own router base.

6.5 inches, it would not screw on my older Craftman router 1/4 in, had to drill holes for base, no problem.

I don't have the device right in front of me, but the cable is not very long. Maybe 6". I've never used an extender with it, but I would be surprised if there were any issues with it. I routinely use it in a hub and it works fine that way. The extender probably would not even need to be an active one.

I installed it at work. The router is in the front office of a brick building about 140' long. The extender is in the basement at the back and sends the signal into a basement room in the (attached) building next door. I played around with placement to get the best signal. No problems and it has never dropped.

Unable to help you with the dimensions since it's already installed in my computer. You didn't ask for my opinion, but I must tell you that if I had to do it all over again, I would purchase a different product or run the cable for my computer to connect directly to a router. I purchased this item to give an old computer upstairs Internet access for my grandkids. (I didn't want to run a cable from my office downstairs to that computer.) Does it work?...Yes, but you might have to adjust your PC tower a little to the right or left to "tune" for the best signal. Is it easy to install?...the hardware, yes...the software, NO!!! The directions, apart from being some of the smallest print I've ever seen (I had to use magnifying goggles), were obviously written by someone who thinks the customer has the same level of knowledge about this product as they do. You will be required to make several "intuitive leaps" during the software installation process. Adding to this problem is the frustrating fact that the person who wrote the directions does not have English as a "first" language. Also, in order to overcome this, they used pictorial instructions...unfortunately, only THEY know what these drawings are intended to convey. My unsolicited advice is to try something else!

Gary, it has been awhile since I bought my router extension so not sure what "insert" you would be talking about. If your talking about the plate on which you mount the router, there was no plate with the proper hole pattern available for the OLD Black and Decker router I planned to use. So, I drilled and counter sunk the needed holes in the plate I had. I believe there was a chart listing routers and the drop in plate numbers which fit those routers. GOOD LUCK!

Kind of an odd question, No. The idea behind an extender is that it sits in another room or area or a different floor, but can communicated with the router to "extend" the routers signal. Best of Luck!

An exact length cannot be given due to the big diff. in config. I can estimate that it can be "0" to 1/2" longer than a conventional socket.

Hi, I don't have an extender to corroborate my answer to you,But isy believe that it wouldn't work with the extender. I hope you can get a more sertain answer from some one else. Good luck!

As far as I can tell the height adjustment has to be made below the table. Changing bits can be done in with the router in the table.PS I like the router a lot and have never come close to overloading it. I looked at the competition and this was by far the best deal.

Thanks for writing. The length can vary, but it's usually 3 feet. Yes, you can use an extender with it if need be.
