VONETS VAP11G-300 WiFi Bridge 2.4GHz WiFi to Ethernet Convert/WiFi Repeater/Point to Point with RJ45 Male DC/USB Powered for PLC IP Camera Printer Medical Devices Network Devices

Awesome device. The little, and I mean it’s tiny, manual that comes with it is a bit cryptic in its terminology, but that's mostly because there is very little wordage. Just a few words here and there, and it’s easy to get confused as to what they mean. But technologically speaking, this device is awesome.Outside of the cryptic manual, it’s actually easy to setup and use. I just connected it to my PC, browsed to its static IP of 192.168.254.254, and then used the Web GUI to set it up. That consisted of scanning for my WiFi “hotspots” (available SSIDs), selecting the one I wanted it to bridge, then giving it a static IP so I can always find it. Boom! Done! Now just plug it into any RJ45 port, and its on my network. I used this for an outdoor WiFi Security camera that had dropped off the network. WiFi on the camera wasn’t working anymore, but once I plugged this into its RJ45 port the camera was back on the network and working flawlessly. And it’s actually got better throughput than the camera’s original WiFi connection.It also has the option of becoming a hotspot itself. This can be disabled if you like (which I did as I only needed the bridge for the camera) but it does offer the functionality of extending your WiFi network from the point it is deployed. So it’s not only a great bridge for wired devices but also a WiFi extender.Unbeatable product at this price point! And it saved me from having to replace a WiFi camera that had lost its WiFi capabilities. The cameras I use are awesome in every respect except their WiFi circuitry. Crappy circuit that is prone to low bandwidth and utter shutdown. I’ve had three of these cameras develop WiFi problems, but this little jewel saves them!

I had a device that was crashing whenever it used wifi, but worked over ethernet, I just could not get a cable to it reasonably due to its location. This ended up being a simple and fast solution that is working perfectly. The device had a NUC so it had USB power, so it was a no-additional-wires solution. Setup is pretty easy though it is a lot easier to do if you hook up the ethernet port for configuration rather than trying to configure (only) over wireless. All in all a very nice solution for not much money.

It's not a bridge in the true sense. For a bridge, what I need is to take my wired printer and to present it to the Wifi network as a device. This is important for my applciation because then the other devices on my network could then send things TO the printer to print. This is what a bridge is supposed to be. But when this manual says bridge that's not what it means.What this device does is connect to the Wifi network, and then NAT the devices behind it to a new network. That'd be fine if all I wanted to do was to connect out from the printer to the Internet, but nothing on my local network would see the printer (because it would be behind the NAT).Also when I plugged it in, it could not see the wifi network in my house (from 5 feet away from the router). The device also froze up.The instruction manual has font size smaller than anything you've seen even the bottom line of the eye chart at the ophthalmologist. There are online videos with instructions but who has time for this.Another aspect of this device that is of concern is that I cringe putting it onto my network and connecting it to my computer, since it's clearly a foreign made device. Just seems like a massive IOT cybersecurity risk.This product does not meet my needs. Too late to return to Amazon, sigh, so going into recycling.

I’m pretty tech savvy and this product works very well but the setup was a little confusing. Beyond that it works very well has a pretty decent range. Had to factory reset once because I accidentally turned the WiFi extender off. But overall great product for the money and if you’re not tech savvy just read the instruction manual twice before you get started. 👍🏼

I used it primarily to bridge WiFi from my phone to my pc through the Ethernet port and it works perfectly, the only downside is that it only detects 2.4g signals, other than that it’s pretty good
