The D-Link AirPlus DWL-800AP+ is an enhanced 802.11b Wireless Range Extender that can operate as an Wireless Access Point or Wireless Repeater. Adding the DWL-800AP+ to your existing wireless network enables you to extend the wireless signal — particularly useful when obstacles like walls, ceilings or other architectural obstacles inhibit the wireless signal from reaching its desired destination.
D-Link, the industry pioneer in wireless networking, now offers an easy and affordable way to extend the range of your wireless network. The DWL-800AP+ is another great addition to the D-Link AirPlus™ series of high-speed wireless networking products capable of maximum wireless signal rates of up to 22Mbps*.
The D-Link AirPlus DWL-800AP+ is an enhanced 802.11b Wireless Range Extender that can operate as a Wireless Access Point or Wireless Repeater. It features advanced silicon chip design from Texas Instruments, utilizing their patented Digital Signal Processing™ technology.
The DWL-800AP+ can be configured to perform as a wireless access point or as a repeater to another wireless access point or wireless router**. Adding the DWL-800AP+ to your existing wireless network enables you to extend the wireless signal — particularly useful when obstacles like walls, ceilings or other architectural obstacles inhibit the wireless signal from reaching its desired destination.
The DWL-800AP+ also features 256-bit WEP encryption for a higher level of security for your communication.When used as an access point, the DWL-800AP+ is fully compatible with the IEEE 802.11b standard, so it works with existing 802.11b-compliant devices. And in repeating mode, because it's a D-Link AirPlus product, more signal bandwidth is preserved and passed on than other brands of wireless repeaters are capable.
* Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11b specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate.
** In repeating mode, repeats the wireless signal of D-Link AirPlus access points and routers. Other access points and routers supported with future firmware upgrades.
