Sorry for the typo, the correct input label on the AC brick is "100-240V~50/60Hz 130mA." The included cable lets you power the client off any system-powered USB port (but not off a hub lacking separate power).

Question 2

Would this device be compatible with a Lorex LH130 ECO2 Series DVR Surveillance Recorder??? I need to connect it to the internet but an Ethernet cord would need to run too far to connect to router. I need it to be wireless. Is this what I am looking for?

Accepted Answer

I tested this on a laptop by disabling the built in wireless on the laptop then connecting this device to the ethernet port.  It did connect and allowed me full internet access.  Under this configuration, Speedtest reported slightly slower speeds than being plugged direct in to the router:
Direct: 8MB/S Down, 1.7MB/s Up
With Adapter: 4-5MB/s Down, 0.7 Up

Taking that in to consideration, the other thing you should be aware of is that this device seems vulnerable to other Wi-Fi devices (even other networks) on the same channel.  Use of the free Network Sniffer NETSTUMBLER may be beneficial for your installation.

One last thing to consider...
Any wireless signal can be interrupted or even intentionally jammed.  Since you are considering this for a Security / Surveillance Installation -- I would *strongly* recommend hard wiring if at all possible.  But this will definitely work if that isn't an option.
