Netgear has introduced the Universal WiFi Range Extender - a compact wall-plugged design (WN3000RP) and two powerline networking solutions: the Internet Adapter for Home Theatre - HD+3D (XAVB5004), and the Powerline AV 200 Nano Adapter Kit (XAVB2101).
"Today, people are placing increasing demands on their home networks to stream videos to their home theatres, play online games in 3D, and engage in social networks and apps with their iPads, tablets, or smartphones. We‘ve created a new fleet of products that not only give consumers the reliable connection they‘ve come to expect from Netgear, but also numerous ways to easily connect the growing number of HD entertainment and mobile devices in the home to the internet. It‘s the next wave of internet connectivity in the home," says Netgear home/consumer products vice president and general manager Vivek Pathela.
For many consumers, setting up and connecting home theatre and mobile devices to the home network and the internet remains a mysterious and complicated experience. WiFi-enabled Blu-ray players, gaming consoles, smartphones and tablets are often in different rooms of the home and therefore may not get a strong signal from the wireless router - which limits usage and makes it impractical to stream HD video or play high-performance online games at the same time.
These products aim to address the connectivity and network performance issues often faced in today‘s connected world and give consumers the ability to create their ultimate home theatre and mobility experience.
