I'm not totally sure why I bought one of these since the FON lies barely used by anyone. However its very low price combined with promise of major range extansion made me think I could focus more on the internal usage of it rather than by any passers-by to our business.
The item itself is about the size of a thick paperback book. It is an unattractive grey plastic block with approx 3m of cable to connect to the FON. Obviously there is zero setup involved.
I must say I'm impressed with it. We run four different wireless routers in different rooms in the office and when I use the NetGear client software to scan, the FON always registers as the strongest signal. It even beats the MIMO ones router which is designed for distance.
If you have a FON and want to increase your reach, this is a bargain.
