pretty blue lights you can change on/off, good signal range

Weak signal after a while. The signal from this is 2-3bars, and I'm getting another signal from my neighbor (I think) that's 5 bars

Speed, when it works - and it does, when it wants to

It overheats very easily - just sitting on the desk, running, w/o any traffic, it will stop responding. The lights go out; it sits there dead in the water. Resetting it doesn't help - you have to unplug/reconnect four, five, six, seven times

Not a bad repeater

  by maestro101 (cnet.com) - Apr, 2007

cnet.com

Worked great to extend a signal from the third floor to most of the second and first floor... does it's job. Also purchased a second one to extend network even further, but wasn't able to get these two to communicate... still working on it though.

Only have to plug into power outlet to repeat signal

Can't repeat signal from one another
