Do I have to connect to a company to set this up or is it a personal wifi router?

Not sure what you mean? You have to have Internet service coming to your house through an Internet service provider such as Comcast or AT&T;, that would be true with any router perhaps you're looking for a wireless hotspot which you can get somewhere like Verizon. However I would not suggest this product for a router get a Belkin or a Linksys for the same price.

Connect directly to modem by Ethernet cable. The modem can be DSL or cable (TWC, COX, or AT&T;) input. what do you mean by connect to a company? I use mine as a personalhome Wireless and local area network.

No, its not a router, it is a usb wifi card. you can use it on a laptop or desktop to connect to a network.

no, its only a very good modem. Connect a router to it and you have your own wifi. I recommend having a stand alone modem and a stand alone router instead of a modem/router combined unit.

NO. It is through WIFI. You need to connect to your router to do initial set up. then it is all wifi. It is very stable, always connected.

It's not a router, but connecting one of the ports to a router might work. You'd still need a router somewhere in your network.

It is like any other wireless router. If your device works on WiFi it should wirk on this.

You need a home PC to run the configuration/management software which can by physically connected to the router at least once. Also, you probably want a device that acts as a firewall. Many home wifi boxes (such as the traditional Linksys/DLink) systems include this, but the UniFi does not. It is just an access point. The SB6121 does not include that either - it is just a modem.Also, if you read some of the other reviews you'll see that this device is designed for the small business and requires you to have a reasonable knowledge of setting up a small network. It isn't a 'consumer friendly' device like the traditional boxes. Don't let me scare you off, but also know what you are getting into.

You have to connect it to a router with a wired connection and detect it with the software that came with it. Once youve done this you can confiig the wireless settings.

This is not a router. It is a wireless Access Point. You still need a router to control the traffic. You can connect this to one of the ports on the router and disable the wireless from the router. Setup is easy, plug it in, run the CD.

This is just a modem. You will need a router to distribute wifi around your place.

It should be simple. The utility helps you set it up for users that don't know how to navigate the router directly. I would not recommend to enable the guest account /login. That part can be confusing and difficult for guest users.

You will need an Ethernet cable to connect to your router. This will make you system connected to your wireless network.

I did have to configure my router (through my home computer) to make our mobile devices accessible, but it was relatively easy with a twenty minute, scheduled help-desk call (you are given an appointment time to call in and share-connect with your control computer to avoid on-hold times). I also set up a dedicated dtdns address for greater reliability, but that was free. The Baby WiFi tech walked me through all of that during that twenty minute call.

Well I'm not sure. We have wifi set up in our home but I don't think the product needs it to function properly.

This is a wifi cable modem. You have to run your cable internet through the modem and then it will do the wifi.

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

Yes, this just indicates that it needs an incoming connection. You should have a modem from your internet company, that would plug in to the back of the router.
