Buffalo’s WiFi Adaptor Will Boost Signal 210%

wifi booster

By David Ponce

There are many ways that you could use this product from Buffalo, and not all of them legal. So, let’s conjure an image where this might come in handy, the legal way. Say you’ve got a really, really large front yard. Say 150 meters long. And you just happen to be in the mood to do some work from the very end. Your WiFi router is a home, of course, and the signal just won’t get to you. Simply connect the WLI U2 SGH54HP, from Buffalo, to a USB port, and you’re set. The device boosts your signal by up to 210% and increases the range up to 170 meters. That’s pretty damn far if you think about it. Specs wise, this is what we know: Vista compatible, Wi-Fi b/g, WEP 64/128bits, WPA-PSK and IPv6.

For this handy device, expect to pay around 30 Euros. No word on availability, at least this side of the pond.

    I can't stand people that are too cheep to set up their own network, instead they're always looking for a free ride and steal from others... are you hispanic?

    Hey! I am American and I love to steal, oops, get shared internet from the neighborhood. Don't be a stupid racist... People are people in Latin America or in USA, and they all have the same least-effort "instinct"...

  • kyle
    Maybe some of us... Have people or things that prevent us from getting our own. Like my bitch of a mother who cut off the internet because she is convinced it is the devil... Aka satan... Aka stan... Also I have an internet business that came close to closing but didn't because of this wonderful device.
