    Need a WiFi repeater that will re-broadcast on a new SSID

    Hi all, Does anyone know of an inexpensive (less than $200) Wireless Repeater that will be able to broadcast on a different SSID than the one it is connected to?

    10gBaseT switch from Asus coming out "soon"

    The model number is XG-D2008 As long as it is (significantly) cheaper than the offerings from Zyxel and Netgear I can see SOHO and even smaller businesses buying these. http://press.asus.com/PressReleases/p/ASUS-Showcases-Latest-Lineup-of-Lifestyle-Innovations-at-CES-2016#.Vo6kM0qa5hE XG-D2008...

    Practical use for 4x4 mimo WAP in 2.4ghz

    Just wondering out loud. Did any manufacturer ever make a 4x4 2.4ghz radio? I know complexity goes up exponentially going from 2x2 to 3x3 and I assume the same applies to 3x3 to 4x4. Would there be any practical use for it? I know in the enterprise space there are 4x4:3 radios where they choose...

    UTT AC750W Wireless router

    Has anyone ever heard of this company UTT before? Looks like a decent device for $100 but seeing that it comes pretty much direct from china I worry . . . http://www.uttglobal.com/default.asp?id=3129#tab2 http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00O1VQA5I/?tag=snbforums-20 As a side note, they have a managed...

    Synology DS115J W/ 5GB HDD $157.99

    Dirt cheap NAS considering the included drive. I bought one as a backup target for my current system (2x 4TB in an Asustor 4bay) Honestly I thought it was a mistake at first but hey, 5TB HDD with a free NAS!
