Do the receiver units cover both outlets on the wall or can you still get an electrical plug into the 2nd outlet?

The unit only covers a single outlet if you plug it in the top outlet of two outlets. It has 3-prongs, so you can't plug it upside down in the lower of two outlets.

Its a very tight fit. Most thick plugs will not go in. These receivers are great, but too big and the second remote is just a duplicate.

The is the new version that only takes up one outlet leaving the remaining outlet free. I currently cannot attest to the size of the plug that will fit in the second outlet since I had not needed to plug anything else into the wall outlet. The units also work with surge protector strips. So if the plug size is an issue when plugged into the wall, the unit can be plugged into an extension strip and used that way with no problem. The unit will however cover up the plug opening next to it on the strip. You should be able to fit at least three units on a six outlet strip if needed.

Both ends are 3-prong plugs. A 2-prong could be plugged into it but need a 3-prong wall connect.

The receiver has prongs which plug directly into an outlet. The receiver also has two terminals that need to be connected to the 2 wires that go to the wall button. You have two options - connect them at the button itself, or, connect them at the garage door opener, which is where those two button wires go. Either way leave the wall button connected, just add the receiver across (in parallel with) the button

Don, I really do not know. I have four unite, I have not tried adding additional units on, sorry. Just FYI plug units directly into the wall socket do not plug them into a surge protector or any sort of a power strip which is then plugged into the wall, the feed back will terrible. Sorry I couldn't answer your question. Glenn

It just plugs in to existing outlet, but it covers the whole outlet. It works great, though.

It is not quite big enough to cover a standard outlet box. I would put a solid plate over the outlet box and then install on either side, preferably on the stud the box is connected too.

Yes, two units. One into modem and the other the other into the cable modem switch port or if you have Directv, into the back of the receiver. Each of the two Netgears also plug into an electrical outlet at the cable modem or Directv source. REMEMBER: THE TWO OUTLETS "MUST WORK OFF THE SAME CIRCUIT BREAKER....or it might not work. I was told this by a Netgear rep.

2 outlets on one side that have a cover for it and 1 outlet on the other side that does not have a cover

I'm able to plug in a three prong (grounded extension cord) in the other outlet. It's a tight fit.

It actually fits very tightly in the outlet. It also take only one plug outlet and does not cover the second outlet on the wall plate. It saves us from using power strips which can sometime become unsightly.

You would have to use a simple splitter. Only one of the two outlets is controlable.

The wires run right behind it in built in slits. The only holes I had to put in the wall were to mount the metal support bar into the studs. I positioned it so that the outlet was behind it. This way, no plugs or wires.

Yes, The one unit covers both power and cable. IT is very simple to install, but you have to have knowledge of electrical service box. Don't attempt to install yourself if you have never worked with electrical circuits. It could be dangerous!

I bought an extra transmitter, so I have the receiver (installed in the Wall), plus two transmitters. They all seem to work together. However I had to buy a whole second switch set--I could not find any where to buy just a transmitter.

No it will only block one if you plug it into the top part of the standard outlet. Doing this will leave room for another plug in. However, if you plug it into the bottom socket then both will be covered. Works like a charm

In response to your question, you've probably found this out already, but for everyone else out there: this covers up both plugs. I found a review for the 3 pack version of this product where they said that it does cover up the other plug. So, you'll probably need one of those "plug expanders" for the wall plug so you can plug in more than one thing to the wall.

I have mine behind the couch lighting up the wall behind it. The receiver is hidden and I have never had a problem turning it on from across the room.
