    Default Hawking HWREN1 WiFi Extender

    [HWREN1]
    Hi-Gain Wireless-300N Range Extender


    Being able to acquire a WiFi signal through out a home, especially with multiple levels is quirky at best. After reading several reviews I decided to purchase the Hawking HWREN1 to help enlarge my WiFi coverage.

    The set up took all of 5 minutes and was a breeze. I am using a Linksys WRT300N router and everything went off without a hitch. I used the enclosed CD which walks you through step by step, (while some reviewers choose not to do this and had no problems.)

    I put the router at one end of my home and the HWREN1 in the middle. I can go anywhere in my home including the front and back porch and receive at least 3 bars. Under your 'Connect to a Network' you will see two available networks. All you have to do is choose the one with the best signal for your location. The down side is, if you are on the move, you may have to disconnect from one and connect to the other.

    With everything going WiFi, this a great tool to have available.
