Product Description
As home networking continues to spread and evolve at rapid speed, some users find that their wireless coverage from their router does not reach all corners or their home, or that they would like to have their wireless Internet access available at a location of their choosing, rather than be tethered to the point where the Internet enters their home. Other users would rather have a wireless network where no product is on the floor, and no cables are visible at all. The WGX102 addresses these needs. It consists of the WGX102 54 Mbps Wireless Range Extender, while the XE102 Wall-Plugged Ethernet Bridge is sold separately. The XE102 connects to your existing home router, while the WGX102 can then be plugged into any existing electrical outlet, and create an area of wireless access. Now, users can have wireless access at any point in their home, whether the pool house, patio, or upstairs bedroom.
