Review on πŸ“ž Enhance Phone Connectivity with GE InstaJack(TM) Extension Unit (TL26596) by Lydia Rodriguez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Even works with two receivers

We have already successfully used an Instajack kit to connect our satellite TV DVR to the phone line at the other end of our living room. Later we wanted to add an extra phone jack to the bedroom at the other end of the house. I bought a second receiver and installed it in the room. This room, although on the same floor, is about 50 feet and further from the original transmitter through a corridor (with multiple walls). As for the installation, I followed the instructions and programmed both receivers into one transmitter in no time. Now both the DishDVR and the bedroom phone dial and receive calls properly. We also had some dialing issues initially, but found we couldn't install a DSL filter on the Instajack receiver. Since we fixed it we haven't had any more problems.

Pros
  • Beautiful packaging
Cons
  • Poorly thought out
