    Good, but not great.

    When it's working it is great, unfortunately it occasionally loses the signal and I have to restart it. Kind of a pain in the butt. As the signal rides on one of the AC hot, neutral or ground conductors (not sure which), it seems to be most affected by other items on the same circuit.

    After reading the mixed reviews of this product I figured I'd give it a try as we wanted cable in a room that didn't have a cable outlet. Item fired right up with picture and sound but lasted for less than 60 seconds. Never could get both video and audio back despite multiple reboots and moving the transmitter to another location in the house. Took it back and bought a smart blu-ray player at a fraction of the price.

    When the Rocketfish HD Extender works, it is great. However it is very troublesome. My experience is that the two components don't always communicate with each other. I've had my system for about two weeks and have had to hit the reset buttons several times. Would I recommend this to a friend, hmmm, probably so. Because of the situation, this type of device was the only way to do what I wanted to do. It would have to be a friend with a good bit of patience.

    Does what it's supposed to do

    This product works as intended, but if you are looking for something that is flawless or projects crisp picture, this product isn't for you. The product tends to be flakey at times displaying no picture or not sending audio. A quick power cycle of the device will fix this most of the time. The other noticeable issue is the picture quality. The colors don't seem to be transferred 100%, thus leading to greens, reds, and shadows popping up in undesired places.

    I love this product! It provides the freedom to place your TV anywhere, even if there is no cable connection nearby. The product works great. It comes online when the TV is turned on and there is no loss of picture quality.

    I easily connected this device to my dish network receiver to send the signal to the second tv without dish in a close bedroom. Now I get dish hd in my bedroom, with a beautiful picture. I highly recommend this product.

    Using this as a wireless connection for my direct tv to my workout room. Was told to make sure it was plugged directly into the outlet. It was easy to set up and connect.

    This little thing does exactly what I need by placing the signal in one area, in another as well. Comes in quite handy when trying to get the same content in the living room out to the patio tv.

    It has been great addition to our home. It allowed us to mount the TV and get rid of an old bulky TV stand....It tends to be a bit difficult to change the channels at times but then it picks up and all is great!!! Highly recommended

    I needed something that would allow me to share my TV signal from my satellite box to multiple televisions. The Best Buy representative recommended this unit over their other options due to the fact that it runs the signal over your power lines rather than over a wireless network. It also allows for multiple inputs (i.e. Satellite box and Blu-ray player). I've been running this for a couple months now and see no signal loss at all. I think the audio got a little fuzzy one time, but that could have been the show itself. The price is a bit high, but it saved me from running wires or purchasing another satellite box.

    The unit works well. Sometimes I have to switch the unit from source one to source two and back to one. This will allow the signal to "catch up" if you don't do this the sound and video will not sync up

    Using this to be able to see the same game on either side of our pool table. Took a little longer to set up than we expected. Technical instructions are always tricky. But, it works and we love it.

    My HDMI cable went out for my living room TV so I went to buy a new one and the sales person told me about this option. I have a TV mounted over a fireplace and may cable box is in an adjacent cabinet- therefore the HDMI cable has to run behind the wall which requires me to get in the attic and use a coat hanger to get the cord to the right place- HORRIBLE HEADACHE! I was very relieved to hear there is a wireless option now!
