14 DAY TRIAL // Netgear's CES 2011 lineup's been filled with all sorts of advanced wireless networking and connectivity solutions, meant to provide fast and easy access to the Internet, and that's also the case with the device you'll read about as follows, namely the Universal WiFi Range Extender (WN3000RP). The Universal WiFi Range Extender (WN3000RP) has been designed to increase the coverage of an existing home network and boost available bandwidth, and works in a very easy manner, since users only need to place the product between the router and areas of the home where additional WiFi access and bandwidth are needed.
Plus, one won't require any extra wires in order to do so, since the range extender plugs directly into a power outlet (where, admittedly, it will take some space).
“Over the last 15 years, NETGEAR has led the way to connect people to the Internet with the most reliable and fastest connections possible," said Vivek Pathela, vice president and general manager, Home/Consumer Products, NETGEAR.
"Today, people are placing increasing demands on their home networks to stream videos to their home theaters, play online games in 3D, and engage in social networks and apps with their iPads, tablets, or smartphones”, continued Mr. Pathela.
“We've created a new fleet of products that not only give consumers the reliable connection they've come to expect from NETGEAR, but also numerous ways to easily connect the growing number of HD entertainment and mobile devices in the home to the Internet. It's the next wave of Internet connectivity in the home," Netgear's rep concluded.
The Universal WiFi Range Extender (WN3000RP) will be available in March 2011 with an MSRP of $99.99, which is actually not that bad a price, especially considering just how useful this thing might prove to be when installed within a household plagued by Wi-Fi signal problems.
