Can I connect this to a Linksys non wifi router and give off a secured wifi signal.

Yes you can, you can turn any wired modem or router into a wireless device. You also use it to extend your wireless reach (signal repeater).

Yes. You can connect to any wired router, and it will act as an access point for that network. The HooToo has its own NAT by default, so you won't be able to connect to other devices on that LAN using the default settings. It easily provides a separate WIFI network for guest use (although the range is not great).

Yes, you can use this to make any non-wireless router produce a wifi signal through the HooToo Tripmate. Just connect one of the empty CAT5 ports on your router to the WAN input on the TripMate and then configure your wireless network to require a password (key). The same method is used to produce a secure personal wifi hotspot at Hotels, the only difference is, once configured you just connect it to the Hotel wired port in your room and your laptop or tablet that has once connected to the TripMate will automatically re-connect when its in range.

That's all the hardware you need. You should only need to enter your Passphrase/hexadecimal code to access your network. I have a Linksys, others may require different entries. The procedure should be the same as when you add any other device. I never had to enter IP address, subnet or any of those entries.

Just plug into the wall, but if you have any secuity set up on the router, it won't work. Use the disk for setup with security enabled router. No problem getting the connection running but didn't solve our bad signal problem at all.

Can't help you with that one. I use it to simple send a stronger signal to a router in another building and it works good.

Not in itself but some simple inexpensive addition will correct that.Linksys has has what is needed to set up wifi.

Yes, a repeater or a AP/Bridge "should" solve your problem but it depends on how you connect the devices.You would have to use the repeater to bridge the Linksys Router using WiFI then connect the bridge using the CAT5 cable to you NetGear.That being said... I wouldn't use the $200 repeater where I could use a $100 WiFi Bridge.Or you could just use the repeater as a repeater and do away with one of your WiFi Routers

Sorry but no it can not. This unit, as all of our extenders, will only connect to the network via a wireless signal. If you need to connect to the network via a LAN port than you need an access point like the AP300 or AP20000G.

Hi, I'm not really an expert in networking. But I know I have attached this to my linksys router and it also works. Hope that helps.

you can do that using ddwrt which is a free OS for routers that allows you to do things that you cannot do with out of the box software. Be carefull when installing it or you may brick your device. read carefully before doing it so that you understand the risks/rewards.ddwrt main page:http://www.dd-wrt.com/site/indexddwrt page for cisco e2000http://dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Linksys_E2000ddwrt page on how to do bridging that you want:http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Repeater_BridgeenjoyLuis

Hi Matthew. If you disable the router's DHCP server, it will function as a plain wireless access point and you will have to plug it to an existing router so that devices will be able to get online to the WRT1900AC. You will get the same result if configure the router as a wireless bridge.http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid;=41965db5d1074957b8033a388583dafc_Configuring_the_Linksys_WRT1900AC_as_a_Wireless_Bridge.xml&pid;=80&respid;=0&snid;=1&dispid;=0&cpage;=search

You can set it up manually depending on the settings from your Internet Service Provider (ISP). You may also secure or leave the network open for public usage. Here's an article that may help: http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=83217d7598ad44d68d9cc60f1cea9887_Different_ways_in_setting_up_your_Linksys_wireless_router.xml&pid=80&respid=0&snid=3&dispid=0&cpage=search

Nope, just link it to your router, I had no problems with this unit, I am still using it today, no problems.

Sure can. I recommend the Linksys Dual-Band Wireless-N USB Adapter (AE3000). The setup is easy. Like in less than 5 minutes easy.

If you have the know how; you can take an old router and possibly turn it into a wireless bridge which may work better.

Ken, Since I don't know the answer, check out linksys.com/support and I hope this helps out. I am using the linksys E1200 router.

I don't see why not. This product works as a bridge between your router and the electrical outlet. No software installation is required. I would suggest buying it, trying it, and keep the box...and worst case, you just have to return it. But I feel confident in it working.

No. This device is designed to connect the computer to a WIFI router, not the other way around.SoftAP may make this possible but check out whether it is doable on your computer before you buy.
