Can this pass through my wired connection to other wired devices? If not, why two ports? When I plug into LAN, the WAN light goes off.

I have connected this device as a repeater, and the wired ports work fine along the wifi. This device also works as a wifi router, maybe you have misconfigured it?

YES! This isn't a SPLITTER, this devices allows you to use all 4 pairs of wire in a CAT-5 cable to enable two ethernet ports. You need TWO devices per cable run. One on each end. 2 wires go to this device then to one wire. Then at the other end one wire goes to this device and two cables go out to your router/switch. Simple.

They don't go through the ethernet. But I'm not 100% sure what the different setups can be. I would contact tripp lite tech support for details

If by "ethernet in" you mean the WAN port that connects to the outside world, I am almost positive the answer is no. The Wide Area Network is the MOCA connection. I don't think it works as a hub between the ethernet ports.

are you inquiring about Ethernet Cable Splitter, I cannot answer this question then, as I have not tried this out.

Technically you could configure it to use any of the ports for WAN, the last three ports are attached to an internal switch so you'd ideally want to use eth0 or eth1 for your WAN port.

Obviously you have no network experience. The only thing that ever goes into the WAN port of your router is your modem. Every device that you want to connect to the Web go into 1 of the 2,4,6,8 Local ports on router to be routed to the Web.

I'm pretty sure that it shouldn't be able to function simultaneously on two seperate networks. I believe the two ports are for redundancy. But if it IS possible, then the networks would have to share IP space because you can only assign the terastation one single IP address

It's two adapters that have Ethernet ports. You plug one near your router and then using a cable connect it. You plug the second near where ever you want and plug it in. It should be that simple. If your router only has 1 port, you will need a small switch.

To my knowledge, no. I use the AC Ethernet adapters for wired connection which work great; I use a cheap switch to get multiple connections from one adapter. For instance, I use the AC Ethernet adapter and switch for to hard wire connect my TV, DVD (or Roku) and PC to the Internet. In another room, I use another Ethernet connected to my HT-WR02 to extend a strong wireless signal in the room and elsewhere around the house. Not sure if all of this information is helpful.

Yes, it has 2 Ethernet port for wired devices. I used it in the wifi client mode to connect my Ethernet (wire-only) printer to the wireless network.

look to see if there is a button on back says 'mdi - mdx' this tells the switch that it should look for a cross over connection 'mdx' then when you put in router cable it should work for the other ports

If you use a Crossover, then you'll need a crossover on the other end as well. it runs over cat6 but is not being transferred as Ethernet. On each end the pin order must match.

I have diff gen devices linked. You can try to connect them via a short coax and power them up. If the network lights turn on after a few min. then you'do be ok.

No, this is a 'switch' which splits the signal from your router to multiple wired devices...

This device isn't meant to be hooked directly into an ethernet cable to my knowledge. It is meant to take a coax cable in and have ethernet outs. For example with FiOS, the coax cables are usually already 'hot' in that they carry the internet/tv signals ready for use. This device connects directly to the coax to then provide multiple Ethernet ports. If you're looked to take ethernet from you router and break it out into multiple ethernet connections I think you'll need a powered ethernet bridge.

Hi Peter, This device can act as Wireless Ethernet Client, and in many cases there are more than just one Ethernet device that needs to be connected back to the wireless network. That's when the bonus LAN port comes in place. If you need any further assistance please don't hesitate contacting ZyXEL's US-Based Technical support at 1.800.255.4101 Option# 5.
