Question 1

What's the maximum range for this? I'm trying to find a product that will work for 2000' away.

Accepted Answer

It depends entirely on line of sight and trees. 2000 feet is pushing it unless you use a second as a repeater, the antenna would need to be uphill of the target and nothing obstructing it based on my experience. Also, my application was rural so almost no interference. It's a great product, but to get that range my advice would be to use more than one.

Question 2

I'm staying in an RV park for work. The signal is inconsistent, but decent when works. Would this help? I don't have access to Ethernet hook up, I assume I could restransmit the current signal.

Thanks Gordon

If you can place it half way between the RV Park's wireless router and your RV it will probably  work for you.  If you try to put it on your RV - probably not.

Question 3

Can the ethernet cable be used as a hardwired connection to a device too?

Accepted Answer

It sure can!  If you have a device without WiFi capability, or simply prefer to use a hard-wired connection for a specific device, you can plug it in directly to the Ethernet port.

Question 4

Does this include a weather proof cable to go from the POE injector to the repeater?  If so, how long is it?, If not, what cable did you use, I need 20 to 30 feet long?  Thank you!

Accepted Answer

No.  The wallwort, POE module, and associated cable is not outdoor rated, per my observation.  I put these items in a weatherproof junction box from big-box electrical department, together with a 120VAC receptacle.  I would suggest getting the 12"x12" box, as the 8"x8" box that I used was inconveniently small.
