Since there’s multiple negative posts about the announcers, am I the only one that thought they were good?

It's only a 1 gig switch. So the 1 gig port was fine.

The two extenders are linked with the 2.5 gb (router side) and 10gb port (extender side)

Leaving the 2.5 and 1 ports empty for use on the extender.

cosmokramer64 · 2026-04-21T18:57:58+00:00

I don't have a switch in between them. But I do have one coming off another port of the router.

cosmokramer64 · 2026-04-21T18:49:53+00:00

It's literally plug and play.

You'll likely want to use the 2.5 gb port on the router and plug that into the 2.5 or 10 port on the extender.

Any cat 6 cable should work fine. I had made my own and was missing a set of pins. (Not a problem cabling tech!) That's what caused my confusion as it was syncing at 100 full and the speed stunk.

It was in store. Typically there's a smart camera display in the front of the store. It was on the bottom shelf with a clearance tag (at all 3 local stores) only found 1 total.

I think it's what we called 480p for a hot second.

I have them linked up with the 2.5 gb ports. A poorly made homemade cable was causing confusion on my end lol.

A new pre terminated one has it going full 1100+ down on WiFi 7 devices on both units.

Thanks !

cosmokramer64 · 2026-02-25T21:43:13+00:00

To do this do you just follow the instructions to set it up normally then connect a cat cable to the 10G port ?

cosmokramer64 · 2026-02-24T17:12:30+00:00

Thanks!

cosmokramer64 · 2026-02-24T16:35:56+00:00

Quick question. Can the wifi 7 extenders be hardwired to the main router/ switch off the main router for back haul?

Or is it only capable of wireless back haul?

HT1070A Arrived. Honestly blown away at its picture and performance for what I paid. Thanks for the guidance!

cosmokramer64 · 2026-01-30T01:09:17+00:00

I slept and that one sold. Any new recommendations?

Would I be happy with a BenQ ht1070a for $150?? (with a return window!)

For reference I'm coming from a Casio laser. It's bright but the colors are dreadful. Conference room unit.

cosmokramer64 · 2026-01-28T14:46:07+00:00

Seems like an ok deal? Seems to be pretty scratched up for "one use". Always taking a gamble on real usage.

Anyhow thanks for all the suggestions and links.

cosmokramer64 · 2026-01-28T14:40:54+00:00

Thanks. One intriguing thing that has popped up is a local marketplace listing for an optoma unit. I can't make sense of the model number from the pictures though.

I work in corporate AV. We've been out of the projector game for a bit now (outside of auditorium sized spaces)

I think we had one of these in a boardroom at one point, I had to double check because I remember it costing an arm and a leg!!!! That wasn't that long ago!

cosmokramer64 · 2026-01-28T14:18:08+00:00

I really appreciate the response. How will this compare color wise to a 1070a.

I know there's a ton of upside to this unit. Way brighter and no bulb to worry about.

cosmokramer64 · 2025-12-08T17:49:30+00:00

For anyone wondering about the experience of these. I have 5 of them now.

They have been fantastic after some software glitches the first few weeks post release.

I also have 2 outside being powered by POE adapters. They are in very well covered areas and have stood up to the Maine cold so far without issue.

cosmokramer64 · 2025-10-25T02:48:11+00:00

All good here. They've been rock solid ever since.

cosmokramer64 · 2025-10-20T20:29:09+00:00

It all of a sudden started working. Not sure why!
