With the release of the new N300 Universal Wi-Fi Extender, Edimax promises to extend the range of an existing 802.1 b/g/n Wi-Fi network to areas of a home or office that may have a weaker signal than desired. In my particular case, the wireless router I use is located at one end of the house and signal strength is  weaker than I prefer at the opposite end of the structure. I have located a mid-structure location to install the N300 Universal Wi-Fi Extender, which will hopefully bring a much stronger Wi-Fi signal to the other side of my home.

Before we dive in to the review, here is some information on Edimax.
