  • Having said that, Actiontec tech support is very responsive and honored the warranty with absolutely no hassle.

Reviews around star (2.99 of 5)

  • But that is to be expected and is no reason to knock down any stars
  • I wish I could give a negative 100 stars this does not work at all especially if you have a S8
  • I'd really like to give these 5 stars because of how well they work (when they're working) and for the high quality support I received, but given the reliability issues felt I had to knock off 1 star.
  • Not worth $40 for something that struggles to work an can't maintain connection.
  • Other than that issue it would've had 5 stars, So easy to use and connect, quality is superb.

Reviews around connection problem (1.00 of 5)

  • I have not seen much lag or have any connection problems.
  • , this sequence is necessary to avoid connection problems that ultimately lead to a need to reboot both the Screenbeam and the SP3 to reset both back to a good state to reconnect--this issue doesn't exist on lower
