Worked on one TV that was upstairs and on the other end of the house, great picture and sound, but, oddly when I moved it to a TV 1 room over and closer to the sending unit, very bad signal. Ended up returning it and getting a different brand and now good to go! So, it does work, but gave it 3 stars since it was very picky. The new unit I have works everywhere much better.

Purchased just over 6 months ago, used maybe 6 times. Each time I had to reset the base unit to get it to work and then it was very undependable. I moved the receiver to a closer TV (a new one) and it doesn't work at all. Hopefully I can return/replace unit, but I doubt it -- too much time has passed.

Ended up taking this one back as it was big and bulky and wasn't as easy to deal with. Felt the Actiontec was better and kept that one instead.

Works great when it is working. Sometimes there is no picture, other times no sound. Restarting does not help.

I just now installed to my family room tv and works great. This is a good way to have tv in one room and all devices in another.

Works okay as long as there is not too much movement going on in the surrounding area of the receiver. Also, avoid plugging into a surge protector. Will cause excessive tiling. Plug directly into wall outlet for best performance.

This product allowed us to not have to pay for another cable TV set top box to extend all the channel selection and HD picture quality to another TV in another room from the one with the Cable TV set top box, Works perfectly.

Wanted to extent the TV out to the pool deck and was maxed out on boxes in side the house.This unit allowed me to direct the downstairs TV out to the pool deck. Very solid connection and it works very well.

Provided solution for box in closet to send signal to a 2nd TV 25' away. Hook up simple for someone who can follow slightly technical instructions.

I don't have line of sight from my PC to the TV so other equipment could not get the signal through successfully but the Rocketfish Whole Home HD extender does the job very well.

Does not work with Direct TV, was told it would. The cost was more than I originally wanted to spend as any additional amount and now I have to try and take the product back. This was a suggestion on Best Buys part so I feel they should know if the product is compatible before installing.

Put this in one of my restaurants to mirror a kitchen screen. Does the job for the most part but sometimes freezes and has to be power cycled. Still better than running 35' of HDMI cable thru the ceiling.

This device allows you to show on other tv's what you are showing on your main tv. I wanted it to send an HD signal wirelessly to a receiver across the room that was pre-connected to surround sound speakers. Did n't work. If it would have, I could not find a person anywhere that could tell me how that could be done. I ended up using radio signals and RCA cables and that worked.
