Can I use this to split one ethernet wall connection to two computers.. and each access the net at the same time?

You sure can. Connect a cable from your wall connection to the hub then, connect each of your computers to the hub. It will work just fine.

It's only got 1 Ethernet port. With that said, I've been considering attaching a hub to it to connect more and I can't think of a reason it wouldn't work.

I used a standard ethernet cable. Plugging one of these to each end allowed a crossover between two computers. I was creating an in-home LAN.

Hi. Yes, you can install multiple switches on a router to have additional Ethernet ports.

I don't see why not--it's just an Ethernet bridge. Ethernet cable goes in one module, comes out the other one.

Yes, that's how I ran - one Ethernet cable. The separate 12V connector is in the case you don't have a POE switch.

Not simultaneously - 2 USB cables are not for 2 computers, one of them is used as additional power source. AFAIK there are no USB devices, that can work with 2 computers at the same time.I am not sure, but maybe you can use any USB-to-Ethernet boxes to connect by net?

you can but you do need a small router. the splitter cables plugs into the router and the router output connects to the network. that's my setup and it has been working fine for months.( $10 -$15 bucks router}

Yes, but keep in mind, this device does not split a port. It merely allows you to connect two ports on your router to a single run of Cat5 cable. It helps in keeping cable clutter down and simplifying long cable runs. Since only three short cables are supplied, you will have to obtain another Cat5 cable of suitable length to complete installation.

No, this is a 'switch' which splits the signal from your router to multiple wired devices...

Hi Michael, you can only use one type of input/output connnection at a time. -Vincent

No you can run the PCs directly to the ethernet switch and plug the access point into an open port configure it and you're all set.

No. You can use one of these splitters on each end to carry two cables over one in a pinch, but will still need two ports on the router or switch for two devices to connect.

No, this device converts one cable into two separate connections for two separate devices and you need two separate connections to your router at the other end.

This 'splitter' allows you to run two network connections on the same cable because most network connections only require half the wires. You still need a router or network switch that provides Two connections / network ports. You can not 'split' a network connection like you can an audio connection.

For that I think you'll want a NAS unit that connects to your router by an ethernet cable. I believe this unit is simply designed for simple access from 1 computer.

Yes..you can give each port its own static ip or use them together (teamed).
