I was using a 2.4Ghz transmitter/receiver but I had to turn off the transmitter every time a started my computer or I would be unable to connect to my WAN. The 5.8Ghz ended that frustration. I do have a 5.8Ghz cordless phone that occasionally switches channels and totally blocks the signal. Solution - pick up phone and hit channel button - much easier than turning off the transmitter and rebooting the computer.

The good news is that it works as advertised except the infrared remote repeater does nothing - nothing for the cable control, nothing for the television control. The bad news is that any movement anywhere near the path between the transmitter and receiver breaks the signal with a loud KHHKTT and visual break as well. Walking into the path does it, towling off after a shower does it (ours is aimed at a TV in the bathroom) and wagging dog tails does it as well.

Great Unit at Great Price. Two items are needed to transmit and receive. One transmitter and one Receiver each at specific price. I bought both each at separate ocassion, but seller was great in expediting order at no additional charge. Items Work great. Thanks

This is garbage! I fussed with the 2 antennas on on BOTH transmitters forever it seemed and all I got was interference. It was like in the old days of trying to watch cable channels that you did not purchase. What a waste. And to top it off this company is in Canada, so I had to fill out customs forms when I returned it. A waste!

I bought the device to send sound to my patio. Previously, I had a 2.4 ghz unit that was reallly not viable in my home. The 5.8 delivers sound perfectly and has no interference whatsoever. I have not tried the video nor the IR since my 65" TV is clearly visible from the patio and the remote for my system works throught the window as well.
