Description
The WFREPEAT300N Wireless-N Extender offers two selectable operating modes that enable it to be used as an Access Point or repeater, for either extending the range of existing wireless networks or adding wireless capabilities to a non-wireless network. Using a wall plug design, this allows for convenient or hidden placement anywhere there is an available AC outlet.
Used as a Wireless-N repeater, the WFREPEAT300N can expand the effective range of any 802.11n WiFi network, delivering up to 300Mbps of data bandwidth, by boosting the WiFi signal to help eliminate dead spots and provide a stronger signal in areas with obstructions which would typically reduce the wireless range. The WiFi range extender is also backward compatible with 802.11b/802.11g networks, for versatile network expansion with wireless routers that use older standards.
When used as a wireless access point (AP), the WFREPEAT300N can add wireless-N capability to any non-wireless router, ensuring maximum convenience and network scalability.
To provide maximum privacy and help prevent network intrusions, the Wireless-N Extender/Repeater offers a built-in firewall with IP, MAC Address and URL filtering, and supports common WiFi security protocols (WEP/WPA/WPA2).
Applications
- Extend the range or increase the signal strength of a Wireless-N signal to cover a larger area, with backward compatible support for Wireless-B/G networks
- Eliminate wireless network dead spots or weak signals that result from obstructions such as walls
- Turn an existing wired Ethernet router into a wireless N access point, instead of buying a new router
The StarTech.com Advantage
- Switchable operating modes (Wireless-N repeater mode, AP mode) offers a versatile solution for expanding both wired and WiFi networks
- The WiFi repeater uses a wall plug design, which enables convenient placement anywhere an AC outlet is located
- Backward compatibility with wireless B/G standards and built-in security (WEP/WPA/WPA2) for versatility in different environments
