If using these with a router that also has a built in wifi capability, can I use the same network name for all three and the wifi router with 1 logon?

No. But it is not a big deal, the Ubiquiti coverage is so strong that (in my case) I simply turned off the wireless on the existing router and just used the Ubiquiti units. Much simpler, much cleaner.

I believe you can if the router supports certain features that allow this to work without too much trouble. Don't remember what they're called at the moment. However, I'd highly suggest you just disable the WiFi in your router. The signal produced by these is excellent and they do support hosting the same WiFi name and it works great.

I wouldn't. The router won't be tied back to the same controller as the Unifi's will.

Yes....my Wifi devices just go from one WAP to another seamlessly and everything is on one single SSID

I was able to get two working at once. Have not triedto get 3 acessing my router at once, but understand it can be done.

I don't see why you couldn't. If you set one up as the ap and the other two as client bridges, it should work. Only issue will be line of sight and direction, so if you have line of sight, and they are all in the same general direction, you should be good to go. You also have the ability to broadcast four different ssid's.

Yes, just be sure to give them separate names, like "MyNet-East" and "MyNet-West". I have two of these and set them to static IP addresses in a range not assigned by my router's DHCP host so I can always get at them to check status, update firmware, and so on.

It uses the same SSID as your router, But they show up as separate networks.

According to the documentation, yes. You can use more than one to extend in a big house/building. Just place your router somewhere where the signal can be picked up by the extender.

Adding a second one should have no issues, since it just (like the first one) would pass along the signal using the same SSID and connection password of your original access point.

I'm using an uBee brand router and mine works perfectly. I'm guessing it's the same across all brands.

You wouldn't want to do that. Most likely your WiFi is a router and firewall, you want to hook up all of your pc's , laptops into the router/firewall so you are protected. If your WiFi is not a router/firewall with wireless, you may want to invest in one, and that will get you four ports for ethernet connections that are secure, as well as providing a wireless connection. Plus, this connector I have found does not work on the equipment that I use.good luck.

Yes..... we have several in different locations that wirelessly connect to our main router. They work excellent! Joe

yes when you log in to router with 192.168.1.1 (default) username: admin (default) pass: password. there is a option called wireless settings in that you can give your wireless a name and assign passphrase so it can be secured and nobody else can use it.

I'm glad you contacted me because you should know that the N-50 doesn't work with wifi routers that require security passwords. You should be ok if you have an older router that doesn't require passwords, or if you are going to use a LAN hard wired connection. I had to send my unit back for a refund. As for your question I don't know, but one reviewer said the two sound very similar. Hope this helps. Phil

I don't use the same WIFI name (SSID), and I read somewhere there it's not recommended. Here's the reason. By having different SSID, I know which router or access point I am connected to. Otherwise, you don't know which one is causing the problem if there were any.

Yes. You can use multiple extenders in the same house. Each must be able to connect to the primary router.

If you plugged in both units and connected the smaller of the two units to your router with an ethernet cable then it should work. No setup was required for me once I understood the small one is wired to the router and the big one goes far away where I want the wifi coverage improved. I had done the opposite (big one wired to router and small one far away where I needed improved coverage). The other thing is to try different power outlets, and look at what the lights are telling you about signal strength coming to the remote unit.

I know they can be setup as a bridge, a router, or a repeater. The authentication used [between] the devices is WPA2-AES/PSK. They "should" be able to, but I am not a network specialist, nor can I represent or speak for TWC or Ubiquity. I would defer your question to the Ubiquiti Forums. http://community.ubnt.com/ I do not have TWC as a provider, but this is a simple topology on how my network is setup. Site one is my main site and then I have two satellite office locations within a mile and nearly a straight line. Each site has access to the "big network". Each router provides it's own WIFI access. ____________(site 1) __________(big network) __________[router1-wifi] _________________| _______&lt;Ubiquity Access Point&gt; _________/_________________\ ____(site 2)______________(site 3) &lt;Ubiquity Station&gt;______&lt;Ubiquity Station&gt; ________|______________________| __[router2-wifi]_________[router3-wifi]

Yes, if you want wireless access to your network from other devices. This does not replace your router or modem. As someone else pointed out, you do need two MoCA adaptors (see reviews for options, you don't need two of these specific ones). However, if you have FiOS (or POSSIBLY other cable internet) your provider's router is already the other MoCA adaptor theta you need.
