Poor wireless signal strength is a common problem in some households or offices, especially in double storey buildings. The solution? A wireless repeater.
The Huawei WS322 wireless repeater automatically detects the signal strength of a wireless access point (AP) and extends the range of the Wi-Fi signal. You just need to press WPS buttons on the device and WS322 to establish the secure wireless connection quickly.Â
As you can see on the image, this unit plugs into the wall power. There are no network cables needed. Thus said, it does have a RJ-45 port should you want to use a network cable.
But this is the big plus point: because it basically is the size of a wall plug you can take it with you on holiday or on a business trip. Very convenient.
