Thats the one! My only issue is that it supports dual 2.4/5 but only one at a time.
Question: My TP-Link modem is dual antenna 300Mbit but 2.4 only. Can I set the Huawei to 5Ghz? I.e. can it recieve at 2.4 and transmit out at 5? I never bothered to test that actually as I assumed for me it must be 2.4 only due to my wifi modem being 2.4
My wifi modem almost loses my iPhone at the rear of my property, between the modem and the rear is my home, and a metal double garage/sleepout, so if I sit out the back and around the corner (adding more sheet metal interference), often the 5S will drop to 4G, but my iPad stays on one bar. So, I assumed that itrregardless of using a repeateer, my wifi speed will be very low even though the repeater can extend, as ultimately my wifi in my location has a fixed range due to distance/home, metal, other wifi. But, when I place the repeater in my garage I get at my iPhone/iPad all bars and my modem connect rate is about 3/4 the speed as it is in my home , near to my modem (wifi test) . That shows a great level of boost which is great
Keen to hear the answer to my query re 5Ghz

Yes I think so. I use one, I trialed it for the telco I work for, Huawei 323. Just a wee square doohickey that has power prongs attached, plugs into the power plug, works great
Surprisingly it actually extends the range without reducing the connect rate by too much, it must have a booster I guess

What's a range extender? I have a repeater, is that the same thing?PeteThat's certainly an option. Airport Express, right?Buy your own modem.I've never had a modem cause odd behavior with my airport base station. I use AirPlay 24/7/365.25

I'm stuck with Time-Warner as an IP. They've installed a Ubee modem/router. They say that the best range-extender or bridge or access point devices with their equipment are from Netgear. But I use AirPlay, and I've read that Netgear and AirPlay are unhappy together.
Do any AirPlay users who use a Ubee modem/router have experience with range extenders or bridges or access points?
