Good quality product suitable for computers and accessories

I have a big house and I use 4 hotspots to get full coverage. I had an external Hawking Access Point that was destroyed by a lightning strike. I called their tech support, exchange with no problems. So your customer service was great. Then I bought some Hawking POE injectors. They worked perfectly. I was having reliability issues with two of my Netgear access points, so I decided to add a Hawking access point to the system. It was easy to set up and works great on the system. I miss the Netgear

Don't hesitate because it looks like a smoke alarm

Bought this device to test before buying and to install in the office. I installed the device at my parents house as they needed a wireless hotspot in their house. I was looking for something that wasn't too flashy. So I installed it in the central part of her house in the hallway. You can't even tell it's there. You don't think twice about it as it's like a smoke alarm. It was a simple setup. I didn't have to run any power cables through the house. All I had to do was make a small hole for the

Pros
  • Long range
Cons
  • Infinitely slow

Great Wi-Fi hotspot for the home or small office

We had trouble getting enough coverage with a standard wireless router in our small office. With a separate conference room across from the lobby, we didn't have a stable connection wherever we needed it. Since we already had a PoE switch with available ports to control our VoIP phone system, stealing a few ports to add those "smoke detectors" wasn't a big deal. As always, routing the cables through the ceiling is the biggest challenge. It has multiple mounting options including two sizes ofโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Can be harmful

Reliable, value for money hotspot with exemplary customer service

I bought this hotspot for my home not knowing exactly what to expect. The specs seemed decent and the price was great compared to other wireless AC access points that offered VLAN and PoE support. As soon as the device arrived, I immediately plugged it into an open ethernet jack in my bonus room and went through the setup process. The installation itself is pretty easy (I used a browser-based setup instead of installing their software on my computer). The access point supports multiple SSIDsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Makes me angry

I really wanted them to work

update: after working with them for a few months I'm changing my rating from two stars to one because it just sucks! No matter what I do, both turn off randomly and there have been no firmware updates from the manufacturer. Don't waste your time or money if you ever find them for sale unless you need a cool doorstop. Original Review: Bought two, one for the front of the house and one for the back. They are connected to switches (one on the front and one on the back) that plug into the routerโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Something about this
Cons
  • embarrassing
