Can this be used as a range extender for a variety of WiFi systems as I travel?

This does not have a wireless extender feature. The unit will connect to the Wi-Fi and only provides internet through the 4 Ethernet ports. If you are looking for a Range Extended and Ethernet bridge combo, you will need the Linksys RE6500.

Short answer: No. The long answer is along the lines of: the router wouldn't know what to do with the antenna or it wouldn't recognize it at all. That I know of, there are no routers that are also self-contained computers, but even if there was such a router, there is no guarantee that Rosewill makes drivers to support the OS it runs. Even still, all of that is null due to the fact that the antenna is a receiver and not a signal amplifier. Bottom line is: you need a Wi-Fi range extender like this http://www.amazon.com/Amped-Wireless-Compact-Extender-REC10/dp/B00BWLL9N8/ref=sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1377628035&sr=1-2&keywords=amped+wireless+wifi+range+extender you can read about it and others like it herehttp://www.ampedwireless.com/family/repeaters.html but Amped Wireless isn't the only company that makes range extenders/repeaters so you should shop around if you want something a bit cheaper.

I believe that you can but be careful how you configure it. Every time you jump through an extender it introduces some latency. After a few jumps you might be very disappointed in the performance.

Yes, you can do this (configure it as a wifi client and it can re-broadcast a local wifi network). However, as it's very small, the antennas aren't great - you would be much better off using a purpose-built wifi range extender

Quite close yes. But you can get a signal booster dirt cheap. This will extend the wifi signal significantly.

I can't say for certain but if it will wok internationally but if it does I can tell you that you will love it. We are using this product to extend the wifi between two properties that are nearly a mile apart. Works great.

Yes you can.It extends whatever signal you give it.You can use you phone as a Hotspot and then give it more range with this. Your phone would then act as a modem or router, basically.

Yes it can, but the blocking of the wifi exclusively with the use of the rest of the device would not

You can only extend the range of your network with an AirPort or AirPort Extreme, unless you connect it with a cable to your router. Still needs to be closer to where you sit than the wireless router.

Yes it will. Re-read the application guide (it is on the web page) for the five different operational mode. There are 5 very good diagrams on how to connect the device to a network.*AP Mode(Default)*Repeater Mode*AP Client Mode*Router Mode*Bridge ModeThere are many informative reviews explaining it's uses.I bought two units on for home & one travel.

it would depend on what the signal is going through. But lets just say this device is stronger than your normal wifi router by 2X. You wont be disappointed!

No, I don't think so. You must set up the extender using your home WiFi settings. It extends your home WiFi network. If you move the extender to another location you will need to set it up based on that location's WiFi settings. I'm not sure it remembers each location's settings. You would be better off contacting Amped Wireless tech support.

Once you install the software for device, it should work as a regular wifi antenna, expect it extends in a far range. I still have not have had it properly work with my laptop. If you already have an ISP (Internet Service Provider) then you do not need to subscribe to anything. But if you do not have any subscriptions, then you can use this WIFI device to obtain available WIFI access points from far ranges.

I believe you can if the router supports certain features that allow this to work without too much trouble. Don't remember what they're called at the moment. However, I'd highly suggest you just disable the WiFi in your router. The signal produced by these is excellent and they do support hosting the same WiFi name and it works great.

Unfortunately the extender requires a signal strength of at least 70% from the source in order to function correctly. If the signal from the hotels WIFI is too low than the unit will not connect. Also, please keep in mind that some public WIFI networks, for reasons of security, do not allow extenders to connect.

Don't see why not. Since it can be programmed via cable, there should be no reason it wouldn't work, but that isn't what it is designed for. It is a specialty piece of electronics specifically designed to pick up wifi and expand it. You could just buy any router if you want to hard wire it, don't need a special piece like this.

No I don't think it will. I had difficulty getting it to extend my Wifi. It's only as good as the signal it gets from the other router. I sent it back.
