VONETS VAP11S-232 300Mbps WiFi to Ethernet Adapter 2.4G WiFi Bridge/Repeater/Mini Router/ RJ45 to RS232 Serial Server with 2 RJ45 Ports/Antennas USB/DC Powered for DVR Monitor Network Devices

A tiny router. You can re-configure this for wired-IN to wireless broadcast. Be aware of a problem though: If you want to upgrade firmware (which comes out frequently), you must then factory reset the unit! Every time? This is not really tenable, depending on where you have installed this. I really hope somebody a firmware upgrade fixes this!

I wanted a little extra signal boost for my security cameras and lights this did the trick

LAN connector in body was not fully seated so wouldn’t stay connected

This purpose-built product is intended to connect a wired network device to a WiFi network.Usually, the device is a legacy device such as old security camera, game device, etc. that only has a RJ45 port for connectivity and doesn’t have WiFi support.This product must be configured by connecting the RJ45 port to a PC and using the browser to connect to the device via a default IP of 192.168.254.254. This me this odd configuration is not ideal because most modern laptops no longer have a network port. So hopefully customers of this product have a Mac mini or desktop computer with a built in RH45 network port.After accessing the portal of the product, the user can find a WiFi network and then configure with password. Then remove this device from the computer and plug it into the legacy network device’s RJ45 port to connect it to the WiFi network.

Ha, I mistook it for a Zonet WiFi adapter I bought eons ago from Newegg. Anyways, got it for that emergency value, and not for that fancy speed value. Very versatile power input that ranges from 5V upto 24V. That's awesome, and used only 10W! It's useless for remote access if your IP junction box went down also. Kinda worrying that the IP grid also failed hours after power outage. Otherwise, it's great for that energy saving feature compared to standard extender that needs power adapter with 20 to 30 watts needed to operate.

Sometimes I need to connect something wired for some software update, ou first use before configure the wireless network (eg. POS printers, RPI computers, LAN-only printers, etc), and this device is handy for that.You will need to access via l/p admin/admin, and then I recommend to use the wizard to configure as a Bridge network or Router. During the configuration you will be asked for a wireless network to connect and create a Bridge network, input the password, save it and reboot the device.After the reboot you will have your Bridged network, but if you want to change any configuration, you will need to reset the device and start again, like for connect to a new SSID.Very portable device, sometimes makes a bit of noise because of an internal cooler. I recommend it for small projects, sometime temporary projects. The bridge speed was 90 Mbps (when I use my wireless network direct connected to computer, I got 300 Mbps), so don't expect hoje speeds to run a NAS server, but will work good for remote software updates, printers, remote cameras switch etc.

I am using this connected to an outdoor WiFi AP to give a remote camera network access without having to run a cable to it. This device allows me to connect it to my AP and then plug the camera into this and it converts between the WiFi and ethernet as a bridge. The signal is very good, and this is working well so far. I might eventually run a physical ethernet cable to the camera's location, but for now this is a good solution that is working well for me.

This thing is awesome I use this for my mobile hotspot when out taking astrophotography photos I hook it up in the car and I'm able to connect the camera and my phone to a network along with my laptop so I can transfer files directly off of my devices and upload them to my storage right away, the power consumption is hardly any thing I have it running off an inverter and some times a portable power bank and it lasts hours, the speed is not amazing but it does the trick with out having to have some crazy setup
