Does it have to be plugged in to the outlet directly? Can I plug it into the extension chord?

It is best to plug directly into outlet. Using a extension cord will cause a slower speed. Unlike a WiFi modem this unit uses the electrical wiring in your house/business to transmit the signal so less connections and the larger wiring use from the outlets to the panel make for a faster and cleaner connection. Hope this helps.

Should be plugged in directly. Polarity matters. Do not plug one in upside down and the other right side up. I have experienced significant bogging due to this.

I used it plugged directly into outlet so I cannot say if it works with extension chord. I "think" I remember reading somewhere that it should be plugged into outlet. I am using it at my church and it works great bu I cannot just step down the hall and try it with an extension chord.Bruce J

It is preferable to plug the unit directly in to an outlet, but plugging it in to an extension cord should work OK. Do NOT however plug the unit into a power strip or the results will be unsatisfactory.

You can, but according to the information booklet you might see lot of noise on the line if you plug this to an extension cord.

It has to be in the wall socket. I tried in an extension cord strip and it did not work.

The Power-line adapters have to be plugged into the wall jack/ outlet directly. However some might work for a period of time if plugged into power strip, then you would have to find a way to plug them into the wall. also keep in mind, if you have a house that was extended and it has two patch panels for electricity. you will not be able to get the adapters to work. all the best, I love these little guys, they work wonders!

You CAN plug it into a basic extension cord, its how I have one of them ran actually. It CANNOT be a plugged into a surge protector or power strip. Most likely because of the extra components and electrical circuitry interfering with their signaling.

Yes, pull the plug. The alternative would be to have an on/off switch on an extension cord.

No, it plugs DIRECTLY into a wall socket. Connecting plugs are at the back of the above photo; they fold into the charging unit when not in use.

Yes it can be used plugged in. Also it can be used without being plugged in.

It doesn't require a cord. The outlet plug is directly attached to the back. So you just plug it into the wall.

the "built in cord" is less than a foot long...yes you need an extension cord.

No, it is wired in directly, so a source of power must be present but a cord with plug could be added.

A regular outlet that is seen in most American households is appropriate. Do not plug into an extension cord but directly into the wall. It comes with a cord for use in an American outlet...don't know which number that is. The temperature drops about 10 degrees, give or take a few degrees when pressing, and I can use it on top of plastic folding table.

No plugged it in my pc. The whole reason I bought it, so I wouldn't have to use outlet. So I can't really answer that question with a yes....

Please clarify as I do not see this in the specifications. But I'll guess that "must be plugged in directly to wall outlet" no extension cord" Most home breakers are 15 amp and extension cords can cause problems if equipment/heaters are drawing close to this amperage.

No, it comes with an AC adapter which need to be plugged in an available wall socket.

It doesn't come with a cord if that is where you were going, but yes if it's wired correctly, it can be plugged directly into an outlet. I would put a switch in somewhere so it's more controllable and the motor needs to be mounted.

The plug directly into the wall outlet. I had no luck with them and would not recommend them.

Does not work on an extension cord. U have to plug directly into outlet. this is a safety feature. Something isn't plugged in tight.
