Trying to get 3 PCs connected via wire to modem for ATT Uverse. Only 2 ports on modem. Will this work to achieve that?

If I understand your question correctly, yes. If you run a cable from the LAN side of the ATT Uverse modem/router to a port on this, you can then connect additional computers to your Uverse connection.

Yes.I'll try and draw a diagram with ascii characters, we'll see if this works.{ATT}|||*-------------*| MODEM |*-------------*||(output)|*---------------------*|...NETGEAR...|*---------------------*|...|...||...|...[PC3]|...[PC2][PC1]

I am not sure but I used it with a telephone wire for DSL AT&T.; I got rid of it as it is too slow. I switched to u-verse and never have any problems like I did with DSL and that modem. It will not support a coax outlet....

Bryan, I tried this with ATT Uverse - no go. I ended up going with Cox cable internet (only internet) and bought a recommended Cisco modem from Cox. The Cox cable comes in on RG# and the modem converted it to Cat#. I am in the Northeast Ohio Area. The balun is for moving video from RG# to ethernet back to RG#. I still have my balun - 20$ deglakewood@ameritech.net if you need anything. Good Luck - David

I also have Uverse. If you go with the UniFi AP I recommend to continue using the the 2wire, configure the settings on the UniFi the same as the 2wire settings e.g. security method, password, etc. except make sure you turn off DHCP. I think some of the people who are having problems getting it configured to work properly are not doing this.

I have a similar setup working, but instead of using the ethernet connection on the modem, which most only have one, I use two ethernet connections on the back of the wireless router. One goes to a swich which drives 3 components and the other goes across to the opposite side of my house to a second switch driving 4 components. I am running computers, PS3, Wii, and 2 internet TV's with improved streaming speed and reliability than wireless.

I have ATT DSL internet service and this modem works just fine. I've had the modem for at least a year. I don't have any info re U-Verse.

That depends on whether your modem has a router built into it. The way I always do it is to connect the router's WAN port to the modem, then connect the switch to the router's LAN port and the other devices.

Dave. Thanks for your input. It was thorough and cogent. I will follow your advice. I do have a stand alone Motorola modem supplied by ATT. i will still need the connection to my computer. Do I get a splitter so that I can have an output to both the computer and the wi-fi roouter?

I have u-verse 2 wire modem. I have no problems with this modem. I configured the Trendnet to have it's own static IP address from my 2 wire IP . I also like that you can have up to 4 individual wireless addresses running at on time. Gave each family member their own wireless address.

Yes. You should be able to add 1 more. But mine can only work with 2, because the middle port was bad.And it automatic detect which port is active and switch automatically.

It's not designed for data use, but some users report it does work for that. I have no personal knowledge. I have to wonder why there are so many splits in your coax and are they before or after your modem. Your problem may be low quality coax, you need quad shielded cable for data transfer.

Sorry, as I have no experience with AT&T; UVerse I can't answer your question.

Your modem must have a removable antenna before you can use the Amped Antenna. The Amped Antenna should then work

It is NOT a modem, it is a wireless router. Modems are usually different, and I always suggest people get a SEPARATE modem for whatever technology they're using (DSL, Cable, WISP, Cell Data card, etc). This will work with any modem using ethernet connections.

As stated, there isn't a 4G modem built in. I tether to my ATT smart phone, but you could get a USB dongle from ATT to connect direct.

Make sure you have adequate power supply. I did not receive one so I had to go to Radio Shack. Need cable from DSL/Broadboard green jack in modem to phone jack in wall. My "wall" is connection to AT&T; DSL only (no telephone). Need ethernet cable from one of yellow jacks on modem to ethernet jack on computer (desktop for me). To effectively get it to work you'll have to call AT&T; to get connected. They will talk you through it. It will take awhile. Maybe 30-45 minutes to do total set up.

What would be the purpose for doing that? I can only think that maybe the modem and the router are so far apart (over 300 feet) that you need a switch to repeat the signal between them? Does the wireless router have multiple switch ports? You can just chain this switch to a switch port (not the WAN port) on a router to add more ports/jacks for local devices (although even that occupies two ports - one from the router, and one from this extra switch).
