i thought this was a novel approach to extending wireless coverage. i've never seen a consumer-level device to use coax to distribute a wireless signal into different areas of a building. you stick their little splitter inline and distribute your wireless signal to wherever you drop a coax cable. has anyone here ever tried something like this? i remember using a similar device to connect IP cameras over RG6 but those were just little single in-single out adapters.
i feel like it's the perfect compromise between running CAT5 everywhere in the house and depending on a wireless AP to reliably blast fast internet to me when i'm 100+ feet away on my phone. i'm pretty sure i read the distance limit here is 800 feet. imagine stretching your wireless coverage out like that. i'm thinking i could run a cable out to my garage, that would be pretty sweet plus you get the TV signal as well.

ah you know what, you could use one of these with an HD homerun and a good HD antenna and build a pretty sweet little entertainment setup. you need a media server to store any tv content you DVR with the HD homerun so that's a cost to consider, but you would be able to tie your media into your network seamlessly and extend your network too. i'm sitting on hold waiting for an engineer to give me a straight answer about a problem, so the past hour or so of browsing lead me here.
