Can this product be used to set up a wireless home network?

Yes, it has the option for guest wireless networks too. That way you do not have to give you main password to friends to use your wireless. The real instructions are available to download from zoomtel.com, in the support section. Look for model 5352. Those instructions are good if you need more information about how to actually set the network up and connect your devices. The instructions in the box are pretty complete and also refer to how to get more info.

sure, you are setting up a little wireless network. Numerous "How To's" on the web. Remember this is line of sightbeyond that easy peasy

I wouldn't. Product never really worked right. Wireless signal was always spotty at best. No way to direct plug to circumvent wireless issues.

I would assume so. This device is essentially acting like a switch on the network. Once its connected, anything you plug into it should pull an address from the DHCP service. Although if they're already accessible wirelessly, why buy this?

depends, if used on a windows system, yes. if you use a linux distro, you could turn the system into an access point with this device and receive wifi clients (and if that box has Internet on another network device, pass it through this device).

It can. I just use mine as a signal repeater for my main router downstairs, and I connect through ethernet and through wireless, and it works great on both

Sorry Pinebear. it sounds like it might be a good idea tho.. not sure.. we only use it for our house WiFi...that's not a great help but i didn't want to ignore the question...

Yes it will. This uses Usb to function. As long as you have a wireless router, this will work just fine.

Probably not, unless you've added a 5Ghz radio to it. Also not sure this is what you're looking for, it's not a general use or 'home' access point. The antenna is very directional, and would be good to connect with an existing, far away 5Ghz network. Not so good to put in your house. Try looking at Ubiquiti Unifi or Picostation for home use.

It should work for that. It basically lets a wired device pretend that wireless is actually a wired network.

I have set up to my home network and do everything through a PC or Laptop, so I don't know the exact answer to this question. Even if it is possible the way you ask, it is definitely handy to do it through a PC

If you are connecting to a wifi router, yes. This will not do anything for you if you do not have a wireless network to connect it to. If you do not have a wifi network this will be useless to you.

If you are highly tech-savvy you might be able to. You can contact the vendor for help. I ran Ethernet cables for both of mine because we had trouble getting a wireless connection to work reliably.

You can set it up wireless but it has to be hard wired initially to install the firmware

This is solely used to connect devices that only take Ethernet cables to a wireless network. So you would need a wireless network set up for this device to connect to.

Yes. But again you need a minimum of two. One hooked up to your router and another wherever you want to use it. Also make sure you don't plug the product to a power surge protector.

Yes you can but i would recommend connecting it via Lan cable to avoid any error when you want to set it to your requirements because it will ask for that.
