03/01/2017

“Even better, are wired extenders. If your home is wired for coax (cat 5), a coax adapter can create a wired connection from your router box to the are where you need coverage without having to run a cable. We like the Actiontec Single Dual-Band Wireless Network Extender and Ethernet Over Coax Adapter.”

11/01/2016

“The Bottom Line…
If you need more from your internet connection then Actiontec has you covered. They offer a wide range of network extending and boosting products at affordable prices.”

09/09/2016

“For this test, I put the Comtrend GCA-6000 G.hn kit up against the trusty Actiontec ECB6200 MoCA 2.0 kit I’m currently using around my home. While these are competing standards (and, depending on your home & ISP configuration, you may not have a choice which to use), it’s a great opportunity to see which is faster…The Actiontec MoCA 2.0 kit delivered speeds in excess of 800 Mbps on both upstream and downstream tests. It blew away the Comtrend G.hn adapter kit, which could only muster 344 Mbps upstream and 262 Mbps downstream.”

09/01/2016

“#8 The innovative Actiontec PE500WLS Network Adapter stands out from the competition with a stylish bright LED light display and technology that is “smarter” than most WiFi repeaters, especially thanks to its pushbutton security option.”

08/28/2016

“It really works exceptionally well!”

08/27/2016

06/22/2016

“The Actiontec Screenbeams will be attached to classroom projectors for a wireless classroom experience that improves a teacher’s mobility around the classroom while delivering lessons. ‘This way they can walk around the room and they’re not tethered to the wall,’ Hardin said. ‘This makes them a lot more mobile, which a lot of them like.'”

06/15/2016

“I absolutely love how portable this thing (ScreenBeam Mini2) is and how easy it is to use. Now we can have family movie night no matter where we are at in the world. My kids love this just as much as I do.”

06/15/2016

“You know what else is so great about the ScreenBeam? You no longer need a Wi-Fi network or wireless router for this device to operate. As blogger, my husband and I are always bringing work with us. This has been such an important device for us to have.”

06/15/2016

06/11/2016

06/11/2016

“No messy wires, no tangled cords and you are enjoying cable tv or blue-ray within minutes of opening the box!”

06/11/2016

“My favorite feature – The wireless video HDMI and HDTV connection is my favorite feature. This feature supports live HD streaming of content from the device to any HDMI device. It means, if you have two or three devices in the house or office, you can connect them using the transmitter. “

06/11/2016

“I can’t count the times I tried to show my family a video I took on my phone and everyone hovers around trying to look at the small screen. All those little moments are now easily displayed on any HDTV with theScreenBeam Mini2.”

06/10/2016

“The set up for MyWirelessTV 2 was simple and only required a few easy steps. It comes with everything you need in the box and no special tools require. All you have to do is plug the transmitter to the cable box and then plug the receiver unit into the HDMI source on our TV. That’s it! 1-2 and you’re done! I am so excited to never see those cables hanging down from the TV anymore.”

06/10/2016

“There are two products that I recently had the opportunity to try out from Actiontec that I’ve fallen in love with and found them to be essential for my home. These 2 products, I believe, are going to be things that you will need and want in your house…”

06/05/2016

“I recommend this device to everyone, it is great for all of the above mentioned reasons, streaming from other devices, viewing TV outside, and saving the trouble of running messy looking cables!”

05/27/2016

“What do you get when you cross a full-rate ADSL 2/2+ modem, a 4-port switch and a 300 Mbps wireless-N router? A very happy home internet user …”

01/21/2016

“However, there is a simple solution in case your computer does not support Miracast. You can easily make use of ScreenBeam USB Transmitter from Actiontec. This little device enables wireless display on Windows 7/8 laptops.”

“The Actiontec WCB6200Q Wireless Network Extender uses your existing coaxial cabling to extend the reach of your Wi-Fi network. It’s a snap to install and delivered solid throughput in our tests.”

12/10/2015

“9 out of 10 stars…If you live in a cabled home and can’t face running Ethernet around the house, Actiontec’s MoCA 2.0 range is a real revelation. Plug and play with lightning speeds, they’re highy recommended.”

11/20/2015

“If you want to travel even lighter, the Actiontec ScreenBeam Mini 2 Continuum Edition ($59) is a small, wireless streaming device that plugs into a monitor’s HDMI port; from there, you can connect the Lumia 950 wirelessly to the Actiontec, as you would any other streaming stick.”

10/14/2015

“To me, MoCA 2.0 is as close as you can get to Gigabit Ethernet performance without the need to run Ethernet cable. Since many homes are pre-wired with coax cables, I feel MoCA 2.0 is the most reliable solution to provide stable and consistent networking performance throughout a home compared to powerline or Wi-Fi.”

09/24/2015

“In the real world there are two types of WiFi extenders – those that use WiFi to connect to a remote extender and those that use cables – powerline, coax or Ethernet – to connect to a remote extender. Wireline to WiFi is often better, faster, more reliable than WiFi-to- WiFi. Coax-to- WiFi approaches Ethernet-to-WiFi in performance.”

09/22/2015

According to Actiontec, these new MU-MIMO-ready devices are ideal for those who want a simple out-of-the-box solution that gives their home networks a performance boost (300 Mbps for 2.4 GHz and 1.7 Gbps for 5 GHz), as well as adding seamless setup options such as an auto sync feature for wireless router/gateway zero configuration.

06/25/2015

“The agreement sets rigorous requirements that will improve the energy efficiency of small network equipment (SNE) by 10 to 20 percent compared to typical, recently-deployed devices and cover more than 90 percent of U.S. broadband households – roughly 80 million homes.”

04/06/2015

“The distance between the router and connecting devices, as well as the number of walls and floors in between, make a big difference,” says Spencer Behroozi, vice president of product management at modem manufacturer Actiontec. While a Wi-Fi signal can travel hundreds of feet in an unobstructed space, walls and floors can cut that distance by half or more.

03/25/2015

05/27/2014

“To support the service, TDS is using Actiontec CPE at the customer premises…”

12/17/2013

“Bottom Line…Actiontec’s Screeneam Pro is a Wireless Display adapter that also supports Miracast. You can use it to beam the contents of your laptop, tablet, or phone to a TV. It worked well for us when we used new-model Ultrabooks with dual-band Wi-Fi adapters, and it also performed well using a Microsoft Surface Pro 2.”

11/28/2013

“If you have anyone on your gift list struggling to keep their game console, computer or other networked device online, Actiontec’s 500Mbps powerline kit (PWR511K01) is an effortless workaround to dodgy Wi-Fi signals.”
