Can it split ethernet from cable modem box to netgear and then computer to use two different phones?

really not sure if that will work for you but the cost is so very little so may worth a try.

The phone cord is a different connector - so it won't work. You can get a similar one for phones.

Cindy,I'm not sure if you can plug one phone line into another! Do not use this device with Comcast.

No this won't work. You would need 2 of these to go to a router/switch if you wanted to share a single Ethernet line.

In my set up, yes. If you are connecting straight from the cable modem, I don't think so. A cable modem is most likely only going to give out one IP address. However, I have a wireless router connected to the cable modem, so the router handles IP address assignment. I then have a 100' ethernet cable running form the router to this switch. I can have up to four devices connected to the switch at the same time and all will have internet access. Right now I have two connected.Hope that helps to clarify.

I have never tried this but doubt it. You need to go modem > router > switch. I don't see any reason to go with what you are suggesting.

Don't think so. I need a separate Null Modem cable to connect to my devices.

Can boxee box access the content of a HD plugged into another boxee box on the same wired network?

No it cannot run two devices at the same time . When you plug in a 2nd device it will shut down ethernet to both devices .

If your Verizon modem has an Ethernet port, yes. You would run the Ethernet cable from your modem to this module, then plug in the remote module in another location within the house. Mind you, you will have two wireless networks. I name mine MyAddress and MyAddress-Extended

I don't see why not, its just sending a signal down the wire. It does not know the difference between Ethernet, or telephone drop wire or anything else.

Manufacturer recommend to provide a split and connect the modem separately.

can i plug one of these into my modem then plug two routers into the splitter? if not you plug one slitter into the other?

Yes, two units. One into modem and the other the other into the cable modem switch port or if you have Directv, into the back of the receiver. Each of the two Netgears also plug into an electrical outlet at the cable modem or Directv source. REMEMBER: THE TWO OUTLETS "MUST WORK OFF THE SAME CIRCUIT BREAKER....or it might not work. I was told this by a Netgear rep.

That depends on whether your modem has a router built into it. The way I always do it is to connect the router's WAN port to the modem, then connect the switch to the router's LAN port and the other devices.

You can hook your computer directly to the one and only Ethernet port. If you have several computers or WIFI devices to connect, you will need a wireless router hooked to it via the router's Wan Port. Your computes will hook up to the routers Lan Ports or via WIFI. A Wall spliter would only be applicable for the phone line. There is only a phone in jack, no phone out. I use a wall jack spliter so I can also have a Fax connected to the same wall jack.

Yes. This splitter allows one Cat5 cable to be used as if it were two. Keep in mind, when you split the cable, you will only be able to connect devices at 100Mbps. You will not get 1Gbps anymore.

Yes. These will make your existing CAT5 connection between 2 rooms serve one Ethernet connection (RJ45, 2p) and two phone connections (RJ11, 1p each).
