Why can't all networking be this simple? Up and running in about 2 minutes :)

Having spent the best part of a day trying to configure a Linksys G router to talk with my Belkin Modem/Router without any success, I was fortunate to come across this range extender in my search.
There are not too many other N range extenders out there and reviews for other extenders all define how poor they are to set up.
Within 15 minutes of opening up the box, it was connected, configured and working perfectly.
The range is great, and now I have full access to the internet and network from my remote computer in the office in the garden.

Couldn't agree more with the other reviews. Great little device, achieves all that it says and not many products give you that!
"Not only are they extenders, but access points, bridges and more."

As an IT professional managing large scale commercial wireless projects with the latest technology, I see my fair share of wireless LAN equipment. I bought these devices for use in my home as they appeared to be very flexible in terms on configuration and very low cost for a seemingly high specification. I was thankfully correct, they are superb little devices that are in fact multi-role. Not only are they extenders, but access points, bridges and more. Easy to set up,I had one as a main access point and another as an extender set up, fully secured within 15 minutes. Not only this but the footprint is literally half that of my existing Linksys WAP54G access points - Tiny...! Highly recommended.

Purchased as a range extender for BT HomeHub2. Straightforward setup to Universal Repeater Mode. Works well. No complaints.

Good: Installation simple and efficient.
Bad: Product worked for 14 months and then stopped.
The Edimax WAP can no longer find the device.
The procedure for a factory reset is not clear from the documentation.
I have tried all the usual, power out, hold the reset button etc to no avail.
Edimax on-line support is too generic.
You can find a support page by model number but there is little in the way of help for specific problems.
The documentation refers to a system reset but merely tells you that you can use it without detailed explanation. It also assumes that you have connected via the management interface.
My advice: stick with Netgear.
