Greenpacket's WN Wi-Fi Network Extender Enhances 4G, Wireline Broadband Network Connectivity

Greenpacket recently announced the launch of the WN Wi-Fi Network Extender which has been designed to enhance 4G and wireline broadband network connectivity. The portable wireless router features both USB and Ethernet ports which can be plugged with either a WiMAX USB dongle or a wired ADSL gateway to effectively enhance WiFi connectivity across multiple WiFi-enabled devices.

In a release, Kelvin Lee, Senior General Manager of Greenpacket, said, “At Greenpacket, we listen to our customers to determine what new features and technologies we should integrate into our products to address their consumer needs. Our existing clients are pleased with our high performance, award winning UH, but preferred if it supported Wi-Fi convenience. That is why we came up with the WN, a cost effective router to extend the wireless capability of end-users’ existing wireless or wired equipment.”

WN has been developed to address the various wireless networking requirements via implementation in four different scenarios. The solution functions as a portable travel router for mobile professionals on the move who can use the device to create instant hotspot at any location. The router also comes with a WiFi Wireless Distribution System (WDS) which can link up a number of WNs within a wireless mesh network so issues of “dead” and “deep” coverage zones can be effectively managed. Additionally, the WN solution can be implemented in home networking scenarios as it supports shared Wi-Fi for WiMAX USB dongles or broadband wireline gateways for both indoor and outdoor devices without the need for built-in Wi-Fi.

Lee went on to say, “The launch of WN Network Extender reaffirms the continuing commitment of Greenpacket to deliver the most advance solutions for consumers globally. With the WN, users will be absolutely delighted, not only with the performance of the wireless network, but also the connectivity quality achieved through the extended range delivered by WN.”
