Good for a few weeks
Pros: Customer Service -I was probably angry when I first started talking to Amped Wireless support chat and their concierge managed to be professional, respectful and help me through what was an otherwise frustrating troubleshooting process. Easy of Setup - Plug, Connect, and Play. That simple. It auto-loads the set-up page and the dashboard is super easy to use and understand.
Cons: Weak signal strength - It's good in an open field. Standing behind one concrete wall of an office building or any other form for that matter and your signal is nearly non-existent at a range of a few steps. On the other side, sitting in the same room I get 4-5 bars... it was measuring loss at about 45dbi. I could also attain that this is most likely the cause of any of the other problems that I had with connecting to a wireless access point with this device. This is not to say it doesn't work in a home great, due to most construction being wood/sheet rock. Settings Application - It takes forever to refresh the settings in the device. 1-3 minutes per setting update.
Overall Review: I made this assessment on a basis of use. It didn't work for my situation, and others may experience it differently. For being a 600mw this device is still limited by the wavelength selection and possible channel interference. The option to select a different channel to be used as the extended network instead of what was being repeated may have been a nice addition. I think Marconi's law won this round.

I was shocked at how fast they had my headset shipped and delivered... The expected was supposed to be 7-10 days I think I received it in 3.
