If you're only accessing the internet through something like a cellphone or a Motorola JetPack and there's no ethernet cable or adapter for your method of accessing the internet, then this won't work for you.
You can also use the hubs not attached to the internet drop as wired access points. I haven't played with this too much yet.
You can have it work along side another wireless network, but that would be self defeating and completely undermine the point.
I will note that the configurability of the system was initially near zero. People complained and tp-link has added a number of features. Which was nice as it also fixed compatibility with my NAS appliance.
It's pretty solid. I know a lot of folks are using the ubiquity stuff as mentioned, but it is pricy and from a coverage perspective it's not really buying you anything based on my experience with both using the network. I haven't gotten to mess with configuring a ubiquity setup yet. A two unit kit is also way more than this setup.
I picked it up for the same price a this drop and I'm pretty satisfied with it.
