Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Logitech Harmony RF Wireless Extender
Customer Review: Worked as advertised
Summary: 5 Stars
I set the extender up with my harmony remote and it worked as advertised. The only hint I didn't catch on the first setup is that you can specify with the remote which of the 4 ports shoot the IR signal out (or set to shoot on all). The first time I set it up I did not specify and it did not work. This was user error because I'm not a big reader of manuals. A quick peek in to the instructions and I caught this and it worked perfect.
For anyone who is looking to hide their equipment and also not have to deal with pointing the remote at the devices this works great with the compatible harmony remotes.

I have Logitech Harmony 1100 remote ,the Logitech Harmony RF Wireless Extender work AWESOME with it..... AWESOME
It allows use of the remote in installations where my equipments is not directly in line-of-sight with the remote: behind cabinet doors,Or like my case I'm sitting (my home theater) in the front because I have a projector and all my equipments Rear so all my equipments is not directly in line-of-sight, etc
This is extremely simple to set up .....
Go for it..... you won't be disappointed with Logitech hormany 1100, AWESOME
Strongly recommended .....
Customer Review: Very Unreliable Product
Summary: 1 Stars
The setup instructions for this product are totally inadequate as is the online troubleshooting help. With phone support, I was able to get the product working, but after a few days the H1000 lost communication with the extender. After two hours of undocumented procedures with technical support, it was working again. After two more days the problem reoccured. The fix seems to be to reload the firmware and software in both the remote and the wireless extender. If it fails again and it is too late to get a refund, I will throw it in the trash and go back to IR communication on my H1000.Customer Review: Poor Product Markings on Package
Summary: 1 Stars
RF Extender box states only that "Designed for Harmony RF Remotes" yet shows no product numbers for guidance. Bought Extender with Remote 670. Told afterward by Harmony Customer Service that only 880, 890 and 1000 remotes would work. Returned 670, and bought Remote 880, but that didn't work. Harmony Customer Service then said only 890 or 1000 would work, and that there was no record of our first call to document the contradictory advice. Quality of Harmony staff seems very mixed, as are their printed instructions and product guidance on the RF Extender's box.Customer Review: Needs hardware change
Summary: 3 Stars
Works well with both the Harmony 890 and 1000. Fairly easy to set up, though there are two HUGE drawbacks which Logitech should fix.
1. They have hard-wired the cable to the Extender so that you have to unplug the unit whenever you want to upgrade the settings - a royal pain when it's plugged in behind your components.
2. Even if you want to make a tiny change to the Harmony settings (e.g. changing a couple of icons) you have to update BOTH the Harmony and the Extender. This takes much longer and, because it's hard-wired, is very annoying.
