The problem with radio waves is that they just can’t seem to pass through things. That’s why I maintain a direct line of sight to my wireless router at all times — even when I’m not using it! And with this range extender for my Airport Express, now I can make my router higher up and more visible in the room — because that’s why I bought a wireless networking solution: to make my cabling and backend electronics more prominent!

Do you think wireless devices need to be high up in the air in order to transmit effectively over distances of 10 or 20 feet? Do you believe dinosaurs walked the young Earth with mankind? Then have I got a product for you, Sarah Palin!
