—HOME NETWORKING SIMPLIFIED
Unlike typical WiFi routers that just blast the WiFi signals in all directions, with
Beamforming+ the router & device communicate with each other, so the router
can directly beam the WiFi signal to the device. The result is a stronger, faster,
more reliable connection that is locked in even when the device is moved
around the home.
• Focuses WiFi signals from the wireless router to WiFi devices
like smartphones, tablets & laptops
• Automatic signal management checks with your device to keep
WiFi signal at its optimal strength
• Designed for home environments to support multiple WiFi
device connections for highest quality
• Extends WiFi coverage, reduces deadpots, & boosts signal strength
• Implicit & Explicit Beamforming boosts speed, reliability & range
for both 2.4 & 5GHz WiFi devices
