Not Worth It: Overpriced, Underperforms

As a result of using this wireless bridge I found that it was overpriced and didn't perform as well as I expected .The setup process was difficult, and THE range wasn't impressive. It was frustrating to have slow internet speeds, especially as someone who works with computers. The only positive was that it looked sleek. Ultimately, I wouldn't recommend this product..

Pros
  • Fast and reliable wireless connectivity with transfer speeds of up to 4600Mbps.
Cons
  • Poorly designed user interface can be difficult to navigate for less tech-savvy users.

Enterprise Wi-Fi Bridges

This is the only wireless bridge that I know of that allows you to authenticate to a Radius server. I have found that they work best if you use a WiFi bridging DHCP server and then give the device you are connecting a static IP on the same subnet. So far I've been using them for several months with no interruption or user complaint. If anyone knows of a cheaper wifi bridge that allows 802.1x radius authentication, please reply. Many Thanks.

Pros
  • Dual Band 802.11a/b/g/n Wireless. The 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radio bands are supported for high reliability.
Cons
  • There are disadvantages
