Ooma Forums

The way I have my home set up, I have our cable modem and wireless router in the family room near the A/V equipment, however, I have a fax machine in the Study. Since the fax will only work when plugged into the Hub (not the scout), I was wondering if I could connect the Hub to a wireless adapter (something fast, like a wireless N gaming adapter such as this one: http://www.amazon.com/TRENDnet-Wireless ... 554&sr=8-3)

I know the standard recommended setup is to place the Hub after the cable modem and before the router, but I really don't want to install the Hub in the family room. I want it in the study with the fax machine. Also, using the RJ45/RJ11 to distribute the ooma signal is not an option for me. Has anyone tried this similar setup? Will it even work? I wanted to ask before I went out and bought the wireless adapter.

Welcome to the forums. Some people have had success with this in the past. Be sure to let us know if it works for you.

Thanks for that link! I bought the wireless adapter and hooked it up, and it works fine so far. Haven't actually tried to fax anything, but the voice calls seem to work without issues.
