I purchased this because I just upgraded internet fiber to house and getting 1Gig speeds. But only one problem I don't have ethernet wired throughout house. My topology is coax to every room to house and home runned to my demark. So MoCa to the rescue. These 2.0 Bonded converted internet to the coax where it is split to every coax cable in the house. I just add a MoCa adapter in any Run in the house for internet. I did speed test and I was able to clock 936 mbps. WiFi was hitting 430mbps using Asus RT-AC68P on the 2.4Ghz channels.

Works as said. Will fast charge but it only syncs to charge in a certain postion. And it only charge in that position. It is even more sensitive when you put a case on. Make sure you see the blue light to verify it is charging.

I used this to hardwire an apple tv, a smart tv, and a digital media box. Since its a switch I don't see any slow down in speed like a hub. And the nice thing about this little machine is that it is gigabyte capable at a very reasonable price point.

Does as described. Small doesn't take up a lot of real estate in the cabinet. Would be nice if it were black. So that it would blend in with the other devices.

I am a huge apple fan boy so it would take a lot for me to admit apple is sub par. Well this it. I switched over from apple tv to this. It has saved me $60/mnth on my cable bill by removing my cable box. And I can network my entire itunes library throughout the whole house to any tv with a roku box.

A solid TV with a specific purpose

We use it in the kitchen, so it is perfect there. It is very thin and light so it does not stick out. I don't think this the tv a person would buy for the family room but for a a guest room, bedroom, kitchen or garage. It would be perfect.

Will Comcast X1 work when using these for a local network in the house?

MoCa will only work with Cable Companys. Any Satellite Company will use the same frequencies that the MoCa travels on. I had TWC and I had no problems. Was able to still have DVR service also.

can i connect 2wireless routers to Motorola arris surfboard modem 600

on wireless router is Cisco other is Asus
It is not recommended if they are within 25ft of each other. Overlapping signals will "fight each other" and affect speed. The only two signals that will not interfer with each other is 2.4ghz and 5.0ghz signals.

Will this Modem work with Time Warner, want to eliminate the $10.00 monthy rental charge?

I have twc. And it does work. But remember this modem is for high speed requirements. If you have internet service with 200 mbs and up this is what you want. But if you have basic speeds of 100 mbs or less then save some money and buy one that supports upto 100mbs.

HDMI ports

I am mounting this tv between a cabinet and a doorway. There is no extra room. Will a fire stick be completely hidden behind the tv or will it stick out on the side? If it does I will not be able to purchase this model. already called Sharp. The guy said he could not tell me how many inches there are from the hdmi ports to the side of the tv,
I don't know if your device will stick out but from the usb jack to the side edge of the tv it is 3".

how do i get 1080 resolution

how do i get 1080p , i have a cable box but tv still says 720
Unfortunately, the highest resolution that cable companies can broadcast through the "tv" frequencies is 720p. True 1080p+ can be achieved by internet streaming but I would recommend 100mbs or faster internet speeds, dvd or blue ray.

How do I hook up this TV to a VCR?

Would I need the three wires with the red, yellow and white and would it go through the cable box? Thanks for any help.
The red/yellow/white is called RCA. this tv does not support RCA. Your vcr should have coax cable or composite cables. Composite has 5 cables. Green- labeled Y, blue-labeled Pb, red- labeled Pr and the last two is for audio red and white.

VGA to HDMI adapter that will work?

Hello - I just purchased a VGA to HDMI adapter that I was hoping would work for this product, but it did not.. Has anyone out there found one that will work? If so, please reply with a link. The one I have that did not work was a Victsing $10 jobbie off of Am*zon...
Through experience, the cables that convert vga to hdmi will not work. The one I have and works is a conversion box that has to be powered by an electrical socket. The one I have splits the vga to 2 hdmi signals for two tv's. I don't have a link because I bought this over three years ago.

Im trying to add FX to my Roku and its giving me a code to type into the FX website to add it. Then it asks for my TV provider.

I dont have a TV Provider. I use Verizon DSL so what do I do?
You only have two options. 1. You pay the monthly subscription for fxnow which is I think $5.99/mnth. Or. 2. You have to have service through a tv provider (e.g. Charter, TWC, Direct TV, att u-verse......).
