![]() ![]() This gadget is great if your router does not cover a room or a part of your house, just mount in on the antenna of your router, point it in which direction you want and there you are. This strangely shaped Wi-Fi Enhancer is absolutely great! It doesn’t occupy much space because it’s mounted directly on the antenna of your wireless router and it amplifies and directs the signal in one direction. This makes them widely available for anyone who wants a boost of their Wi-Fi signal, to enjoy the web from the backyard or for those who share an Internet connection at a greater distance. But the truth is that they come in almost the same price range, going from anything around $20 and up to $400 or more. You might expect these devices to have staggering prices, much more over the range of normal WiFi routers. If a usual WiFi router has a coverage area of about approximately 50 meters, these WiFi extenders can double or even triple the WiFi coverage of your router. What are WiFi extenders or WiFi enhancers? These electronic components are signal boosters for our routers, that multiply the signal sent from the routing device to a wider area, both unidirectional (in one direction) or multidirectional (in multiple directions). WiFi enhancers can be mounted on the router’s antenna and boost the signal directly from the source, or they can be entirely separate devices that boost the signal when it gets low, creating a new hot spot around them.

The problem today is that even the best routers can’t cover a big enough area so that we can stay connected to the Internet continuously. As our homes and cities are more and more connected to the Internet and the Wi-Fi coverage increases, we enjoy the benefits of the web wherever we are. ![]()
