5 of 5 Plug and Play Wednesday, September 02, 2009 A Customer from Houston, TX
Plugged the ethernet cord into an ATT uverse box, plugged the power cord in and in 2 minutes I was on the internet. I went back later and configured the WPA key to secure it and that took a couple minutes and was so easy. Great product! Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 Better than the other wireless devices. Friday, April 03, 2009 Pam from Fernandina Beach, FL
So far it is working great. We had some Linksys range extenders in
to get the range of the wireless better and we had to reset alot. They they started to completely stop working, no power no nothing.
So we found out about another solution to our wireless went with it and started using the Hawking Hi-Gain with the outside Antenna and it is working great. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 excellent coverage Thursday, April 02, 2009 Phillip from Havertown, PA
My desktop and router are in an addition added to the house, which means that the signal has to go through thick walls. I usually got one bar with my laptop in the house. After trying a cheaper extender that didn't work at all, I decided to buy this. I couldn't get it set up, but a technician patiently walked me through an involved process of setting changes. At the end it worked fine. I have the extender sitting on a beam above a dropped ceiling in my living room, and thus out of sight. I now have five bars on my laptop in the basement or in the third floor attic. I never thought I'd see that. It's been working flawlessly for the last three weeks. This was an excellent purchase.

3 of 3 customers found this review helpful. 5 of 5 Better than expected. Saturday, March 28, 2009 A Customer from Los Angeles, CA
The first unit worked, but had a loose power connector. Buy.com replaced it within a week. The second unit is working nicely. Although it extends the original signal well, I did notice reduced download speeds when tested with (speedtest.net). But this is imperceptible when surfing the internet. The setup was very easy using the web interface. The Hwren1 came with firmware 1.16 installed. Therefore, no need to update it. Just remember to match the channel and security settings of your parent router with the Hrwen1-extender. Also, changing out the original 3dBi antennas with 5dBi did not make any difference. Overall, a great extender. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Finally! Works beyond my expectations. Saturday, March 14, 2009 Jbaker from Mabank, TX
I have tried various things to increase my signal strengh. Finally, something that works. We have several walls to got through and about 200-250 feet. I was barely getting enough signal to log on. Now I'm getting full signal strength! And it was SO easy. Took about 10-15 minutes to get up and running. Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 Works Great! Wednesday, January 28, 2009 H. Davis from Madison, Al.
Although the first extender I received was defective, Buy.com replaced it with blazing speed. The second one worked like a charm. It took about 5 minutes to program and get running. I now have 100% signal all over my house. Was this review helpful?
