Review on 4920 Airties Smart Wi Fi Extender by Andrew Schreider

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy setup and high performance

I was looking for a WiFi extender and started reading reviews and thought I'd try this MESH technology from AitTies - I've only had it recently but I really like her. I've tried the ethernet backhaul and really liked this setup - looking at my main router's status page, it seems like the 4920s are routing traffic through the ethernet backhaul whenever possible and offering a speed improvement. Streaming from Amazon or Netflix loads much faster and speedtest.net offers better bandwidth. Plus, they're easy to set up. If you already have a main router, power on the 4920 and connect a Category 5 cable between the 4920 and a port on your router and wait about 5 minutes - you're done. To add more 4920s for better WiFi coverage, plug in the next 4920 and let it configure itself - you'll have to be patient, but once you turn green on 2.4 and 5GHz (with the 5 flashing, talks along occasionally his parent), then you're done. I don't know if they will last long but for now they are great.
