do these type of wireless signal to xpandors also expand the signal for wireless networks on other devices not in the home??

I'm not sure I understand but if you mean in your yard, then yes. I have unplugged it from one area of our house and plugged it in an outlet out back and we still had wifi on our iphones. Your extender just has to be near enough to your original source of wifi to pick it up. Your other devices have to be near enough to your extender. I don't think this is for driving around in a car though. You have to plug the extender somewhere where it can still pick up your original signal.

The Netgear signal worked to extend the signal on my TV when I had Roku and also works with all the computers in the house. I really can't answer your questions because this is all that I use my Netgear for, sorry.

No and don't waste your money on it. I should have sent mine back but I don't like the hassle in doing so.

If you mean, does it enhance, say a neighbor's signal? I don't think so. You actually have to type in specific info pertaining to the system you plan on using it with.

Yeah I agree with Danny, but with some creative engineering you can still boost the signal distance. The only way to boost the signal of something like this would be to utilize the interrupt pin and have it trigger from a read on the external antenna, Which would actually be pretty interesting to code and build. Hope this helps!

No, this is a WiFi extender/router. If you cannot get a signal, then your just out of luck. You are thinking of a 4G LTE signal booster, which can only boost an already strong 4G or 3G signal for indoor use. It's not a very portable thing either.

No it will not. It only increases signal strength. Don't know how to increase items per zone.

In theory yes. I bought one of these and wss able to set it up excep it wouldn't broadcast a wireless signal. You should look for a different product!!!!!

I am using one with my laptop to increase the range and speed to conect with my home wireless network, and speed up my internet connection. I have not installed it on my Dell XPS 730X Desktop for I was concerned about any problems that I may incur since it is 64 bit and not 32 bit as is my laptop.

Hi there! Yes you can use multiple extenders for increased range - their main source of wireless connection would need to be the same.

It might improve the signal a bit more just because the wireless adapter has a high gain antenna but is not the most recommended method to increase the signal since your laptop has a built in wireless circuit. Your best bet will be a wi-Fi range extender or a more powerful wireless router. Hope this helps...JR

Not 100% sure if you will be able to extend that far but what I can tell you is when extending the wifi signal you lose performance and internet speed the farther the extender is from the router and the farther your products that you will be using are from the extender hope this helps

You can hook up several of these without an issue, as they are simply repeating the carrier signal, and not causing an interference pattern. Please remember though, that wireless signals travel out and DOWN (not so well up) So I would recommend putting your source router as high up in your house as possible, and set up the repeaters on the lower levels as necessary. If you have a smart phone, download the app WiFi Analyzer so you can actually walk through your home and see your signal strength, and identify problem areas. It will also allow you to see your neighbor's networks, and determine if any of them are trying to use the same signal channel as you.

Agree with everyone else. This will successfully boost your wifi signal (if you need help, check out the review I posted for this product), and increase potential range of any wireless device you own (regardless of the operating system on your devices).

There is a little bit with all wireless mouses however if you are havr excess it it probably due to other wireless items in you home or general area interfering with the signal

I have no idea. I just know the two I bought work great for boosting signal and increasing range.

I too live in a semi rural area, closest neighbor is about 150 yards away, I can get full signal on his wireless router. If you run Linux you can increase the power and it will go even further.

I am using mine the same as Mark to extend the range of my wireless router. Have not tried it without the router.

There are too many factors for anyone to give you a good answer regarding a possible increased range. For example; Is there a device nearby that may be degrading wireless signals in general? Poor electrical connections, a fridge capacitor failing, etc all can create problems.

I cannot answer your question 100%, but I can tell you that this device is a simple wireless signal amplifier. If you attach it to an antennae, it will boost the signal output and purportedly increase the range of reception of that same antennae.
