Please log in for more thread options I need to set up a network around the house. The problem is that I have two ethernet exits on my modem (one for tv and one for internet) that I need to get to the other side of the house (where the actual tv and computer are). Can I plug both cables into two different home plugs and then use 2 others to pick them up on the other side of the house? Or will that not be possible because only one type of device can be pluged into a home plug network at a time? Thanks Zach | |||||||||||||

> huh? why is your tv using ethernet? yeah - me too - after I thought about this network.... why does your "modem" have two Ethernet jacks - with one designed for TV ??? And exactly how does the TV receive the Ethernet signal ??? Is there some specially supplied TV converter box to go from the Ethernet to the RF signal or RCA connectors or HDMI ?? Haven't really seen a TV with an Ethernet input... Please give more specifics and details... | |||||||||||||

Since we haven't seen this type of hardware mentioned before, it might be a little new for all of us to help with... You might try the forums over here - if you have the ATT service http://www.dslreports.com/forums/all lastly - on the AC wiring solution, which model "homeplugs" are you using ? Without knowing what your "modem" is doing with each Ethernet connection, it's hard to guess what's going on with the AC modules. What IP address's are used for the TV and for the Internet segments ? Are they on the same IP segment or ?? | |||||||||||||
