It's possible to add a third adapter to the network of two already in the house. The third device needs to be paired (there is a button on the adapter to do this), but once paired it will participate in the same network. The only pitfall might be the location of the third adapter; if the electrical run is too far or if it is on another phase than the other two, you may not be able to pair it.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This technology only works if have at least two units: one hooked to the Ethernet output port on your cable modem/router from your ISP and the other hooked to your PC or Ethernet-ready TV. Just putting one single unit hooked to the ISP cable modem/router does nothing. So, no, you putting one in your room won't cause any problems, that's how you access the higher bandwidth. However, for Internet content you will only have speed as fast as the ISP is providing you from outside the house. You will have full speed between connected devices inside the house.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes. You can have up to 16 of these on one network. You would want each of them to be in different rooms. Two on the same power breaker can interfere with each other. But it works like a simple 16-port network switch. I have used up to four at one time in my house. Also, don't plug it into a battery backup.
