Great Wireless HDMI Extender - Works Well In Most Applications..
Great units. Use them for CCTV and have purchased them before too. Great where a cabling solution is not ideal - however if the distance is too far its great that you do not need to purchase another unit- you can just use these via the RJ45 ports. Using a CAT 6 wire, you can extend over a considerable distance. The units work well - only thing I noticed is there isa bit of latency but I believe this is due to the wireless transmission. The IR repeaters work well!

Range is pitifully short. Doesn't work reliably over <5M, let alone more. Lousy customer service.
Has the outward appearance of a purposeful kit but it looks like they've invested more on the cases than whatever's inside them because I've never managed to get the system running for more than a few minutes at a time and I'm an Electronics Engineer! I have the transmitter connected between the source and our main TV and the receiver connected to another TV in the next room. The system will only work reliably with the main TV turned off! Tracked down the manufacturer and sent a tech support request via their web chat. Crickets. Save your money and buy something else.

Just about did the job
Just wanted this to transfer the tv picture from my BT box in the front room to kitchen table around 15 metres away. Just one wall but unless I nearly had line of sight it struggled. Picture went if I walked in front of line of sight. Not tried in other rooms yet. UK plug adapter on one power supply didn’t work. Had to use US version with my own UK adapter.

Excellent product!
The devices work like a charm! SUPER LOW LATENCY! I can play on my videogame in one room having the console next room or sharing the same DVR between different rooms. I have tried it over wireless and the latency is extremely low. I would definitely buy it again.

Practically useless
I had high hopes – and some ambitions – for these little devices, intending to use them to beam my Sky box and PVR feeds from my AV centre in the lounge to my mini projector in another room. I don’t have multi-room (yes, I know I’m cheap) so a wire-free way of achieving the same goal sounded perfect.However, things didn’t get off to a good start when I opened the box, looking for the manual, only to find a A5 sheet with the tiniest writing and the barest of information, and only a couple of pictures giving a rough guide on how to get the devices working. Still, they are fairly simple to get running (kind of), and involved me plugging them in and hoping for the bestIn the box you get two extender boxes, one labelled ‘Transmitter’ and the other labelled ‘Receiver’, an IR receiver, an IR transmitter, power adaptors with changeable plugs-of-all-nations and mounting brackets to attach the boxes to something solid.To get things going you place the ‘Transmitter’ box next to your source with an HDMI lead from said source to the box, and the ‘Receiver’ box next to your receiving TV with another HDMI from that box to the TV. Then plug the IR transmitter into the ‘Transmitter’ box, the IR receiver into the ‘Receiver’ box, turn both boxes on at the mains and wait for them to connect. Quite nicely, the ‘Transmitter’ box also has an HDMI out, so you can still watch your source feed on your main TV, as long as the ‘Transmitter’ box is plugged in.You can use either Wi-Fi or Ethernet to connect the two boxes, although they connect directly to each other and don’t use your home’s network. It wasn’t practical for me to try a direct Ethernet connection between the boxes, so I had to use Wi-Fi, but I did find that using HomePlugs (data through your home’s electrical wiring) worked just as well – not that that is saying much.A light on the front of each box tells you when they’ve connected to each other, and achieving this was pretty painless in all my tested scenarios. However, with the boxes about 10 metres and 2/3 concrete walls away I couldn’t get any signal (either audio or video) to my receiving test TV at all, with the TV displaying an annoying ‘NO SOURCE’ warning. Moving the boxes closer, 5 metres and one wall away, gave me extremely intermittent audio (which broke up every time I walked between the boxes) but still no video. Switching to Ethernet via the HomePlugs gave exactly the same result.The IR transmitter / receiver function should allow you to use your source feed remote control in front of your receiving TV, but whilst it’s also a nice idea, I couldn’t get that function to work either, with absolutely no response from my source. As I said, it wasn’t practical for me to try a direct Ethernet connection as (1) I don’t have a long enough Ethernet cable and I’m not moving heaving TVs around for the sake of a test, and (2) even if Ethernet did work I couldn’t easily use it to achieve the very thing I got the boxes to do.I was really disappointed that I couldn’t get the boxes to work as they seemed like a great solution to my AV problem. I suspect that a Gigabit Ethernet connection might work quite well, and if your home set-up allows for it then you might be in luck, but if you intend using Wi-Fi and live in a home with anything other than paper-thin walls, you might not get the result you hoped for.

WiFi range isn't the best. Buy a simple ethernet extender.
My mother has been looking for a solution to her cable TV needs for quite awhile now. She was quoted from her provider an installation fee of £30 plus a further £12.50pcm. This is ridiculous, she lives on her own and only wishes to watch the channels she subscribes to. It's hardly multi room as only she would be watching at any given time.I was going to lay a cable months ago but the logistics for this would have meant having to move lots of ornaments and furniture, then the way her central heating has been installed would mean a further headache, well unless I drilled through mid height, obviously this would look terrible.I decided to give this a go and found the signal to be lacking. Basically the transmitter is directly below in the living room. We're talking an original distance of around 3.5m directly. No walls, just floorboards, but I couldn't get a decent lock on the receiver. I just had audio and a screen which said there was an issue.In the end I decided to opt for a 10m hdmi and had the receiver on the floor and used a five meter for the transmitter. There was then literally two feet (the ceiling/floor depth) between them. It worked but obviously it couldn't be left like this.I've been back over this week and laid some cat8 to each and it's now working better. No break ups and the pictures slightly improved.Wirelessly don't bother, run a cable but that then defeats the whole reason in buying this. You can get Ethernet extenders for a quarter of the price.In the box you'll get everything you need bar Ethernet cabling. They're simple enough to set up but as mentioned wirelessly they're not up to much.Didn't need the iR transmitter/receiver as her remote is Bluetooth. With that in mind, her remote had no issues changing her box downstairs....
