Did not work, shipping costs were enormous, vendor messed something up as the duty on it cost more then the product and it cost more to return it then it was worth (as duty/shipping costs would not be reimbursed.

Works like a charm! Like so many others who have reviewed this, I had no phone jack where I needed it, and needed some way to get a fax printer working without extending a lot of ugly wires around the house to get it to work. I've read other reviews where people have said their phone works fine running it through this jack. Mine did not; however, I found a way to make it work with my setup.I have a Comcast cable / internet / phone modem. The phone line is connected at one end to the modem. The other end is connected to a splitter. One end of the splitter goes to the base phone of my cordless phone. The other end is connected to the Line connection of the base wireless jack. Nothing else is connected to this jack; it is simply plugged into the wall. Elsewhere in the house, the phone cord is connected on one end to the extension jack and the other end is connected to the fax printer. The extension jack is then plugged into the wall.Both the phone and fax printer work great with this system. Caller ID displays just fine on the tv. My advice to all would be this: Read all the directions, consider your setup and needs, and above all, don't give up on this without trying different ways of connecting these jacks if your needs don't exactly match the owners manual. I made this work for my needs. You can too.

I bought these to use on my Directv receivers where a phone line was not accessible without running cords around the room. Very easy to install and start up. Works flawlessly. As stated on description and box, it is only to be used for data and not phone use. Hence the "D" in PX-211D.

I DO RECOMMEND THIS ITEM.Here's a little story about the first one that I bought:The original unit that I bought was a "Phonex PX-211 Wireless Web Jack System". NOTICE that model doesn't have the "D" in the name. I don't know what the difference is but the original was a dud.Per the instructions, I plugged in the base then plugged in the remote module. The dialtone did appear on the remote end but sounded like a garbage truck was hemorrhaging on the other end of the line. Then the signal disappeared and the modules refused to connect ever again (even after resetting per the instructions). I even tested the two modules when connected to the SAME OUTLET and also tested with other nearby outlets. The modules permanently divorced each other, never to speak again. By that I mean the green "synch" light remained red for all eternity.Amazon made it ridiculously simple to return this defective item. THANK YOU Amazon. You rock! THIS is why I continue to buy from Amazon. I understand that sometimes you get a dud and returns are necessary. Amazon takes all the pain away from this process.Note: After returning the original dud, I proceeded to purchase THIS item:Phonex PX-211D Wireless Web Jack System( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000MRN0LM/ref=oh_details_o00_s01_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 )I don't know what the "D" on this model is for but it was $3 more so I didn't care or mind.The Phonex PX-211D worked instantly and continues to work flawlessly for a dedicated fax machine. The base is in the living room in an outlet near a number of power strips which support a bunch of electronics (cable modem, stereo receiver, TV, DVD, Cable box, etc.). The remote module is in the kitchen, definitely on a different circuit. I expected some level of static and some fax retries but no, still works flawlessly. I'm very impressed.

I ordered this product to wireless accese my Tivo, from one floor of my home to another, a distance of 18 feet and the product did not work. It would not pick up the signal from the base unit. I tried closer locations, but it still didn't work. I had to get a different brand locally and that worked fine. Now I'm stuck with one that doesn't work and no way to return it.

I bought this for my daughter's room because she didnt' have a phone jack and I thought it clevor to have a wireless one since kids change their rooms around all the time. We were pretty excited about the concept, however, it doesn't work well at all. It's a bunch of static. Can hear the other person, but definitely something wrong with the Jack. I wouldn't recommend it nor spend that much on it. We didn't return it because what a hassle to return and pay for shipping again and my daughter was just excited to have the phone working.

Although the description says it can be used to "add a telephone to a room" and the technical details don't say anything about it being limited to data, the model I received and the extension jack are both for data only. That means you can't add a telephone. The Phonex box has a photo of the extension hooked up to a telephone and clealy states that it can be used for that purpose, but when you open the box, the base and extension units are both marked "data only" and the reception is all static if you try to plug in a phone. That said, as long as you only need it for data, it works ok. I have it hooked up to the phone line for my DirecTV receiver and another extension unit hooked up to my modem, and they seem to be working fine.
