If you need to expand the range of your wireless network *use this* Hawking HWREN1 Hi-Gain USB Wireless 300N Range Extender. It is easy to setup and performs amazing.

Recently we moved from a fairly dense compact townhome to a more spread out house. It was a great move for our family. The trouble is, I run wireless for internet. I use the D-Link DIR-655 Extreme N Wireless Router – its awesome, performs really well for internet and gaming. The trouble is that the house we moved to has very thick walls and floors, the wireless signal doesn’t travel very far.

to overcome the weak signal, I first tried a Belkin power line extender and it did not perform as I needed it to so I returned it. I replaced that technology with the Hawking Hi-Gain. this little baby performs exactly i wanted it to. The set up is easy and connects to your network like another device. Connecting it is easy too, just connect to it from your wireless interface. After connecting, I got 12 down and 6 up on my Comcast high-speed connection.

Set upi is easy and performance is great – highly recommended.
