Not Impressed in Repeater Use

 

The connector is female on this antenna.

Build quality seems pretty good for it's price. Setup was easy and menu system is easy to navigate

I am using this as a repeater along with my Netgear WGR614 router. I have the repeater outside under a pavilion roof (also tried inside a shed) with it's antenna clearly in view to the house wall where the router is and in clear view of my desired...

Easy Setup as a Repeater

 

This replaced an Amped Wireless SR300 ($94) repeater that I bought in the summer of 2011. Stay away from Amped Wireless products, and give this a shot as a repeater. I am 100% satisfied so far.

Easy setup without setup cd. At the price of $16, this is quite a bargain! Setup took about 10 minutes, maybe. I may buy another

None so far

It's small!

 

I am writing to clarify that the antenna connector is male and works with the TP-LINK TL-ANT2408CL 2.4GHz 8dBi Indoor Omni-directional Antenna (Item#: N82E16833997226). I had a heck of a time trying to verify this antenna had the right connector for...

It's a small unit

None at this time since I have not used it yet

Won't hold settings

 

Bought this based on the positive reviews. I must have gotten a dud, because the unit I received won't hold settings. I set it up as a repeater, and as long as it was plugged in, it would function. I'm not sure how well, because the PC I used to set it...

It's cheap

It's cheaply made

Poor instructions

 

docs are weak. Haven't figured out how to get it to work as a repeater. Now.. i am someone who has built over 20 home computer systems, and know my way around pretty good. I followed other peoples directions here, but honestly, the software should make...

small ; affordable

figuring out how to use it as a repeater is a bear

good repeater for the price

 

good price. hard to set-up because it does not have a tech support and useless cd/paper insert. works fine with my actiontec m1424wr fios router

no customer technical support. useless cd and procedure in the box. use the link that i attached, it might help. http://www.encore-usa.com/us/product/ENHWI-N3. just go directly to repeater FAQ to use this as repeater. don't follow the set-up/wiring...

Bumped the signal 40% on my PS3

 

My PS3 is on the opposite end of the house from my router (thanks to some lack of foresight on my account) and was getting about 15-20% signal due to this. Netflix was streaming standard definition video with medium quality and still dropped the...

All pros are aimed at the repeater function of this device, as that's what I bought it for ; Easy to set up (for instructions, go here: http://www.encore-usa.com/us/product/ENHWI-N3 ) ; Reliable - no dropped signal in 1+ month of usage ; Comes with all...

overall interface is somewhat confusing without instruction ; No wireless N support (not a problem for me since the PS3 will only do B/G anyway)

Best repeater for price

 

Price and performance for 3 in 1 router can't get any better.3g Router, repeater and 2 port for wire network and create wireless lan

User interface can be more user friendly but no serious flaws
