RCA RC926 Wireless Phone Jack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I use the RC926 to add an extra phone jack for my DirecTivos and standalone DirecTV receiver. All three receivers are split off from the extension jack and I have never had a problem with the units making the required service data call.
Edit: I also have DSL but use 2Wire filters (not the generic filters provided by Verizon) for greater clarity. A filter has to be placed between the jack and the wireless BASE unit for the wireless extension unit to function properly with DSL.
Note: Tivos and DirecTivos DO HAVE MODEMS so Rios' title header is somewhat misleading. But the facts in the body of the review are correct. Per Page 10 of RCA's manual (which is available on their website): "Note: The maximum baud rate for the Wireless Phone Jack is 14,400. Best results, however, will be experienced at 9,600." This limitation is why I knocked off a star.
So yes, I would not recommend that you attempt to surf the Internet using this jack or use it for any purpose where a high baud rate is important. But the phone jack is perfectly fine for voice, fax, and satellite receiver use.

The RCA RC926 wireless phone jack converts your existing electrical outlet into a phone jack without the need for tools or wiring. Plus, it's fully expandable, allowing you to add as many additional RCA RC926 extension units as you need.
The RC926 is very easy to install. Just insert the transmission unit into the AC wall outlet and connect the RJ-11 cable to the existing phone jack. Next, plug the included extension unit into the wall outlet. You can plug it into any outlet within your home. A green indicator light on the side of each unit indicates that it is functioning normally. A reset button lets you change the location of the phone jack or switch phones.
The RC926 features built-in surge suppression and is ideal for placing a phone anywhere that an extension phone jack is not readily available. The RC926 is compatible with corded and cordless phones, answering machines, fax machines, and computer modems. It also supports call forwarding, call waiting, three-way calling, conference calling, and speed dialing.Once installed, the wireless phone jack system is fully expandable--you can add an unlimited number of extension units and phones throughout your home. --Megan Dugan

Radio Shack Wireless Phone Jack System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Worked right out of box, no complaints, packed securely and arrived quickly.
To realize it's fullest potential, the closer, the better (for the Base unit and Remote Unit), further away invites crackling and interference on the line.
Best is "Line of Sight" and less than 50 feet for me, walls with metal inside them cut the RF signal down a bit.
Very happy with it, runs an answering machine at home where no wall phone jack is located and it works fine for me!

Rca Wireless Phone Jack Extension Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This additional wireless phone jack works just as advertised. I have one base unit with a wired telephone plugged in and two extensions connected to a Satellite DVR and a Fax Machine. The quality of the signal is excellent, and set up is quick and easy. Finally, this is one of the few powerline phone jacks that will transmit caller ID information. Make sure that all plugs one uses these units are wired into the same breaker box or they will not work.

Wireless Portable Phone Jack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Seems like a great idea to avoid unsightly (and potentially -if you have an elderly dependent- dangerous) long wires. So I gave it a try.
The unit is very well and solidly built (if a bit bulky), and a snap to set up. Plug the base unit into an electrical plug close to your main phone line, and run a phone cable from the phone line to the base unit. Do the same with the sattelite unit, and connect the phone to the satellite unit - you are done. You will get dial tone.
What will depend a lot on your wiring, I assume, is sound quality. It was horrid in my environment - heavy static, a very loud and variable background noise and muffled voice to top it off. It was unusable in that environment. I don't blame the product - I am sure it depends a lot on how the wires run in a place. Seems worth a try, even though it didn't work for me.
