Can Incoming ethernet cable from the router can be plugged into ANY of the 5 outlets? Other outlets connect out to TV, DVD, etc?

I set it where I have the dsl modem going to the switch, then I have cat5e cables running into 3 different rooms to computers from the switch and a wireless router on the switch as well. So far we have had no problems with it.

Short answer...yes. Long answer... because it is a switch and not a hub, all of the ports are capable of being uplink (to a router or another switch) or device port. As stated in the instructions that came with the TL-SG1005D I ordered, "The switch is plug-and-play. In addition, the Auto-MDI/MDIX cable detection on all ports eliminates the demand of crossover cable or Uplink port." I hope that answers your question.

That is correct, does not matter where you plug the ethernet in from the router or modem. Just need to get the internet into the switch and then it does the rest, pretty easy plug and play. Other outlets can then be plugged into to any device requiring internet. Hope this helps

Yes as this is an unmanaged switch just think of it as an ethernet splitter

Yes. I did this downstairs with a second adapter to switch Ethernet to multiple devices. The first one upstairs gets Ethernet directly from my router.

Hi. If your referring to the ethernet port, the answer would be 1. David Ray is right, you can only hook one router to the modem.

You can plug into any "live" CAT5 plug that is eventually connected back to the router.

Yes, as long as your router is connected to one, you can connect a bunch around the house. I have 4 plugged in and one at the router.

May also be able to use a network cable to plug into your router. I would just plug it it in to the network to see what happens. How do you currently have it connected? Or is this going to be new?

Hello Dawn...You can go to Walmart or Staples and get a device that allows you to plug in multiple devices into the Ethernet Powerline Plug! Tom S.

NO! The ethernet router would need to be configured to accept a DSL signal; that isn'

No, there is no outlet at all. Just a power cable with a female receptacle, to plug in your router

You CAN purchase (Radio Shack, etc...) an adapter that plugs into a Ethernet outlet on Router and plug USB into it.

There is a CAT5 connection and a 12v power connection. The CAT5 is PoE capable.

There is an Ethernet port on the bottom but from what I understand is that will only boost your wifi signal more, not turn an outlet into Ethernet. Someone else may know more about this, though.

Not an answer but another question :-). Does this device also have more ethernet ports (4) like my present router that I use along with my DSL?? I presently have a need for three with equip. adjacent, nearby my router??? TIA for any info.

Yes, the Netgear has multiple Ethernet ports, but the yellow Ethernet jack, goes to your cable box connection only

Hi. Yes, you can install multiple switches on a router to have additional Ethernet ports.

I don't have that setup but I imagine it would work. If you connect it to your router in one room and then the 2nd unit in another room, you get an ethernet jack which is now direct to your router connected via your home wiring. The question would be how you would connect or split the cable ethernet to existing sevice and to where you want to add service. I hope this helps.
