If that's the case it's no good for me. I'd prefer a wireless extender.

Going by trends on extenders, it would appear that's an ethernet port for connecting any wired devices to the network.
Think I might give this a go.

Yep. A bit of research shows the ethernet port acts as a bridge for localised equipment like home theatres etc, so this device looks fine :)

indeed! - it's comparing a UK highstreet retailer to a HongKong based eshipper.

Which is why I tend to avoid Maplins whenever possible. They sell cheap electronics with stupidly high price tags.
I didn't bother with this in the end, after I saw they were being sold elsewhere for the same price. Also there are plenty of alternatives on other sites like Amazon that don't smother the socket.
