They use ARP spoofing and can definitely cause problems. We tested one and they 
were not compatible with the SmartRG SR400 routers we use. Their support was no 
help whatsoever either.

Hmmmm, does that work seamlessly, or could it cause problems people blame on 
their Internet?  And would it play nice with a range extender or mesh system?

ARP spoofing. It's not inline at all. If possible, it should be hardwired to 
the router instead of wifi for best performance.

How does this work if it’s just another device on the WiFi?  It seems like it 
would have to either be inline with the path to the Internet, or somehow take 
over DNS.  Or is it doing something intrusive on the WiFi?
