I have a cable modem connected to a hub that has a wireless access point. Can I just plug this into the hub or does it need to be connected to a PC?

Need a little more info to give a completely accurate answer, mainly to clarify terminology. The "hub" you speak of--if it has a wireless access point built in, it is likely a router with a 4-port switch & Wireless capability. In which case, this antenna can work perfectly--provided it is configured properly. Providing the make and model of what you are referring to as a "hub" would help on final determination.

Mine connects to the modem it only connects to the PC to program it. Your question would best be answered by their tech support.

not really sure of your application but it has several modes it can be configured to run in. it is very versatile. I use mine as a repeater to extend the range of my wireless network. it relays the signals from several wireless cameras I have to keep an eye on livestock. from a network standpoint it isn't physically connected to anything. just wireless...

You plug in the ethernet cable directly into the adapter. You need 2 PlugLink adapters inorder for it to work. One is for running the cable from your router and the other, you run a cable from your computer to the PlugLink adapter by your PC.

Not sure I don't have and ihome. I usually just plug in the cable. The port is pretty accessible.

All computers now a day have a jack for cap5 connector and all external modems have cap 5 jacks as well. You didn't say if you wanted to use the computer wirelessly is so you will have to have a USB

If you only need to hook up one PC, go ahead and plug it right into the modem - this will work great. Just make sure your PC's firewall is enabled! Your PC is receiving direct, unfiltered Internet when hooked up like this.

Currently. no. The hub requires a connect to the Internet since everything is stored in the cloud. Ther is a puch from the community to be able to at least operate exisitng rules with out the Internet, but not yet.

A modem translates the coax signal from your cable company to Ethernet. An access point plugs into your local network and provides wifi access to your local network.

You need the hub to be able to control remotely. The hub connects to your router, and uses the routers Wi-Fi or internet conection for remote control.

Not sure if i understand the question. this is just a modem, its doesn't integrate wireless so you'll need seperate device for wireless. Unless your talking about packet loss over a long cat5 cable. it seems to work fine for running cables, but i'm not sure how you measure that.

WiFi is not available for connecting to your router. The hub requires an Ethernet cable.

Nope. No WiFi. It's a USB cable directly into the computer. They don't recommend you use a hub.

The unit itself is wired directly to the router. Only your PC has a wireless connection to it.

No, you don't. Connection can be wireless if your cable provider has you set up with a wireless modum, or similar set up.

You have to use the cable supplied...it isn't wireless. The cable supplied has different connectors on each end.

Yes. One thing that I had to do thought was first hook it up directly to my laptop and get it working. Then I could move it to a hub and it would work. For me, it did not work right away attached to the hub but has worked fine since.

No - it will need to have the PC plugged directly into it. it's likely that your laptop has an ethernet port though, so you should be able to plug that into this.

I am going to say neither, because it is designed to only connect your network via wired or wireless. The unit has USB port to allow you to take normal usb devices such as drives and scanner and share them over your network. It isn't made to accept incoming wireless signal from a computer and grant access to the network.
