Wireless RangeBooster
Wireless technology is littered with technical standards such as 802.11g which means
little to the average user. While wireless technology can be considered to
be a branch of rocket science, the implementation of a wireless network into a modern
home is fraught with black magic and mystic. The reason for this is that if
you set up a wireless network in a vacuum it works brilliantly but put a few brick
walls in the way, some kitchen cupboards full of stoneware and a plaster archway
full of wire mesh and suddenly your wireless connection to your router keeps dropping
out.
Push the specifications to one side, the D-Link DWA-142 will help, just by how much
is difficult to define but it will help. Like having your old analogue TV
aerial mounted ten feet higher it gives you the edge. We have tested this
unit on XP, Vista and Windows 7 and it works. If you are trying to connect
wirelessly to the Internet and have problems with poor connectivity to your own
router then this is the product for you.
Buy with confidence - Tested and in stock in the UK !
Installation is stunningly simple, run the driver set up program and follow the
on screen instructions. Sit back and surf. This unit will connect to
most existing wireless networks but don't expect the manufacturers claimed increase
in speed unless you have an compatible 802.11n router (sorry, dropped back into
babble mode for a minute there). What you will get with an 'ordinary' wireless
router is a more stable connection at your normal speed.
