can this be used to extend the pc wifi adapter

It will extend any USB 2 connection. Whether the wifi adapter has unique properties that make it unable to work through a cable, I don't know.

MANUFACTURER ANSWER:Hello Jeffery,Thank you for showing interest in our products. In theory, this will work but there is a risk of voltage drop since WiFi adapters in general tend to draw a lot of current. This will manifest itself in the WiFi adapter dropping off the USB bus repeatedly. For more timely responses please contact us directly at support@plugable.com. Kind regards,PatricPlugable Technologies

I use this on my wi fi adapter on my computer and it works very well. As far as your modem I can't say, but on the receiving end it really saves a lot of money not needing wi fi boosters. I would say as long as you have a port to screw it in to though that it would probably work. Just make sure to stretch the cable up and out after attaching it.

I'm not sure. I would think it could be used wherever a USB cable is used. I used mine to get a wireless adapter closer to an Access Point.

No, the way the unit is configured, it does not appear that it would be possible to add an extension. You could check with the manufacturer to se if the have a longer cable available.

Evan, I purchased the adapter for the same exact purpose. Clearly, that is what the adapter is designed for. No, do not buy this specific adapter. This adapter is designed poorly and does will not hold your end snuggly. It will rarely make a good connection.

I plugged it into a USB port in a pc that did not have wifi capabilities. ..it works great...but I am not sure about your situation

I do know you can plug it into pc and gaming system, but I am not sure if you could add extension. You would need some kind of adapter. The cord is very short.

Apparently you can provided you get theTU2-ET100 adaptor. I just bought one of these and no matter what I do the unit won't recognise the adaptor plugged into it. The unit is great otherwise and wifi results are good.

Yes. With this you can connect any Standard Ethernet Cord to the coupler on One end and connect a standard ethernet cord into the other end of the coupler to extend it.

I used it to extend my wifi adapter to router.Not familiar with Play Stations

Yes it can be used as an additional extension. From what I've read you can add as many as you want. You could have one in each room. Just pair them to the one you have on your router.

Not 100% sure if you will be able to extend that far but what I can tell you is when extending the wifi signal you lose performance and internet speed the farther the extender is from the router and the farther your products that you will be using are from the extender hope this helps

I don't think so. I used this just to connect two cables together to extend the length. It doesn't add any functionality to anything.

Yes, you can. I have a wireless router/switch on the end of mine, extends my wireless network for me.

I can not give you a answer to the question that you have asked. I used mine to increase the network connection for my PC from 10/100 to 10/100/1000. It works fine for my purpose. Ask more people!! Regards Bob

This is merely to increase range and signal of the existing wireless/WiFi. In order to operate, it has to be connected to USB port. Since this item has such a long cord, the fact that it is hooked up to your laptop is a non-issue, IMO. I used this to extend the range from house WiFi to a detached garage several hundred feet away. The result was a solid 5 bars, a robust connection, and fast response - hooked up to a laptop with the range extender well away from the laptop.

I would say no as it needs a USB to connect also I know with mine there were drivers to make it work. You could however hook it to your shop computer if you have one to receive from the router I think maybe for what you're looking to do you may want to check out the WIFI antenna at Heartland Amnerica I have no knowledge of the product but you can probably review cust's opinions on it
