Product Description
StarTech.com's IR Remote Control Extender allows you to extend remote control of devices at distances of up to 35m (115ft. ), using a radio frequency that can operate through walls, doors, and around corners, etc. The remote control extender lets you control your A/V devices from greater distances or even from another room, allowing added configuration versatility for multi-room or outdoor applications, without having to move within range of your remote controlled device. The remote control extender is comprised of two units - one local IR remote extender, which accepts the incoming IR signal from the remote control and wirelessly transmits it to the second IR remote control extender unit positioned near the controlled device. Designed for reliability, the remote control extender is backed by StarTech.com's 1-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.

This review is from: StarTech.com IREXT Wireless Infrared IR Remote Extender - Up to 115 ft (Electronics)
I really enjoy the flexability this ir extender provides. As long as you aim the remote control correctly, it works great. If you are a channel changer of great frequency, then be patient; you have to aim the remote carefully.

Not adequate,
This review is from: StarTech.com IREXT Wireless Infrared IR Remote Extender - Up to 115 ft (Electronics)
Range from transmitter (IR receiver) to receiver (IR blaster) is ok.
Range from IR remote (any of mine) to the transmitter (IR receiver) is two feet or less. Don't bother with this. Buy the Terk Leapfrog LFIRX. It looks better - and it actually works! Range of my remote to their receiver is very good - at least 15 feet. Range of their blaster from their receiver is good. Their plug in blaster is very powerful (so much so that I couldn't figure out which surface was the front!)/ http://www.amazon.com/Terk-Leapfrog-Remote-Control-Extender/dp/B000069EV0/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1277622850&sr=8-2

Good is:
- The radio signal between the two units is good. It works good enough in my house to go about 45' line of sight. 35' around walls. - The unit that repeats the signal at your remote device (i.e. DVR, DVD player, stereo receiver) works well. I use mine from 15' with no problem. Bad is: - The sensitivity of the IR receiver(the devise that you point your IR remote at) is narrow and low. So don't expect to stand more than 6 - 7' away from the very front of the IR reciever with your IR remote control and make it work. It won't. I've tried a couple of different remotes and have the exact same problem. So either get over it or don't bother to purchase it. The other bad news is that I've tried other wireless devises like this and they have similar problems. The best devise that I used was the NexGen. It worked well. However, it only works with most remotes that take AA or AAA batteries. One of mine doesn't and that is my problem.
