What's the latency like when using a setup like this? Does the ethernet cause any noticable delay?

I didn't haveMuch luck with this brand better luck with the sewel ones and not any noticeable latency

The product works really nice latency is perhaps a glitch second and its lit up.

Ethernet does not come into play. The Extenders do use two Cat 6 cables, so the confusion is understandable. There is no latency, no delays, and no degradation of the video quality.

Noticeably, none; actually, in the milliseconds. If you use a good quality cable works fine. In several setups that I have used, I have never had to compensate fot it.

Yes, it is Ethernet. It only makes a difference if you have equipment that can utilise the connection.

Yes to your 2 questions. Only thing is mine came with a tape over the ethernet ports saying it did not recommend POE or something like that...I simply use the power adapter that they sold with it. I started with the first units, which were G wireless, and now my two units are both the OM2P-HS 300 mbps. I am entirely satisfied with the performance. Netflix on my Samsung Smart TV never freezes up, for instance. Check with the company about POE. The email is support@open-mesh.com

It works fine for me. It's mostly your internet modem/router. I occasionally have this problem where my internet would randomly cut off at one point while still being connected and I'd have to refresh the page when watching YouTube videos but it's ambiguous whether it's the Ethernet cable or the ISP itself.

I have not noticed a delay. The only problem I've had is when I try to use the dual output at the same time. One for audio to an older amplifier and one to the tv. The unit has no output when both are connected, but works fine when only one is connected.

I'm fairly certain this Should be able to function as a bypass to your built in Ethernet port, you may have to disable the on board port in the bios and/or drive manager. @$13.95 it's certainly worth a try. You could also try a wireless USB adapter also if you have a wireless access point.

I havent noticed a delay when I used it. If there is one it is hardly noticeable.

Probably -- there's a little bit of lag induced in the conversion from ethernet to coax.

There is no lag going from composite(edit:component) to HDMI on the passthrough(although there might be a loss of quality. I haven't tested without it, it's been plugged in since I got it.) The capture has about 2 seconds delay.

No noticeable lag. Is amplified and my cat5 runs weren't any where near the max. The lowest common denominator issue might bug you. Oh and frying right at about a year like many other reviews have said :)

I agree with Amanda's comment. Ethernet cable from router to computer is only for the initial set-up.

Check other responses, but it really only communicates during setup. Once you have devices added and timers set, it pretty much never uses the Internet until you add another device or change the setup/config.

It should not make it slower if you plug in three or four ethernet cables. However, it doesn't matter what brand router switch you buy, the overall internet speed will decrease because you're using up bandwidth from your provider.

Yes the wireless is really slow from the time that I tried it. I haven't tried updating it though I have only been using an ethernet cable.

I think you'll find that any HDMI interlink or switch will have a delay. This is an inevitable result of the HDMI / HDCP handshaking system.

I perceive NO DELAY at all. The video transmission is very fast with no noticeable latency. When I attach a video camera to the RF transmitter, and a video monitor to the RF receiver, I do NOT notice any lag between the image on the video monitor and what the video camera sees. I have to say that for their low price, this RF transmitter / receiver pair provides top-notch performance and superb value.

You cannot run multiple wireless connections without a very apparent lag. even with the unit plugged directly into the ethernet, the wireless projection will still have a .5 second lag in A/V transmission.
