    Actiontec Single Dual-Band Wireless Network Extender and Ethernet Over Coax Adapter (WCB3000N)

    • We converted an old small garage into an office, entertainment and exercise room, which meant we needed a strong wireless internet connection.
    • They are located near my TVs, so I can use the ethernet ports in the back for very strong streaming TV connection without using the Wifi.
    • , is getting this item to transmit the same WiFi signal as my quantum router, and to have a steady signal that I can go from one end of the house to the other without it swutching midway and losing connection on my game on my phone
    • I live in an apartment converted from a house built in the late 19th century, so the walls are presumably very thick and I'd have a lot of trouble getting a stable connection past them to other rooms, even when I put the router in the middle of the apartment
    • But, having a reliable 300 mbps WiFi connection at the far end of the house means that I can live with all that.
    • The direct connection to check the setup didn't work either
    • I needed to provide a solid internet connection to an extension of a house about 200 to 300 feet away and this did the job
    • Unfortunately, my current WIFI network would not provide enough signal strength to keep a reliable connection with the camera.
    • We got this product after reading an article about how to boost our home network wireless connection
    • You must mess with naming the WiFi connection and password to match your fios router
    • Then I was able to sync up SSIDs with my router using WPS so devices seamlessly switch between the Actiontec and my Verizon Quantum router depending on where the connection is best
    • I've been struggling to get a strong Wi-Fi connection to all areas in my apartment for several months
    • All in all you can use it to provide a stable connection for Ethernet but WiFi throughput is extremely weak topping at 50mbps
    • At this price, I figured it was worth it because the "n" standard is still fast and if I needed a faster connection, I could upgrade and using this cheap one as a test is not a big loss
    • To get good connection speed I had to make sure the channel width setting was set to Auto.3
    • If you have a coaxial output and no access to an ethernet connection or a poor wifi area in your home, this will give you a fast connection to your network via the coaxial connection
    • Easy to use and connection is stable
    • The WiFi on this is ridiculously unreliable, causing wireless devices to lose their connection through the MoCA bridge
    • That 2.4 and 5 GHz wireless connection is no joke
    • Connection secure, no internet.
    • Very easy setup and connection to my existing network
    • Now we get full speed (70 MBPS) in the entire house!Unless you have a much faster internet connection or for some other reason need more speed than MoCa 1.1
    • With this in place, we get rock solid connection no matter where we are in the house.
    • n’t go wrong.
