Will the Medialink Wireless-N Broadband Router with Internal Antennas rape me when I fall asleep?

NO, the rape will begin as soon as the money for your order has been accepted.

Possibly, but I am more sure that their legal department will that are comprised of raging monkeys with full hardons.

Not to my knowledge. I have slow wifi but my significant other has not noticed any changes in reception while I use the microwave.

I use a JacobsPart wifi Router in a mobile home from my son's wifi about 300' away (I cannot even pick up FM radio without an outside antenna). I get 3 bars which equals good signal. It works great. Of course I am not on the computer that much, but it works aytime I connect. And his home has aluminum siding to pass thru also.

Thank you for the response! Absolutely correct, feed it a wireless signal and you are good to go!

No. Get a different router though. Even with the latest patch this one still doesn't like to play nice more than 80% of the time.

My condo's not that big, but I've got the kitchen, and bathroom plumbing, as well as the washer and drier between the router and my tablet when I'm in bed. It's pretty solid. You might want to look at what your mobile device has for a radio, I've seen problems with iPads at work that did not connect as well as iPhones and Android devices. Some gear just has less robust radios.

No. Think of this thing as being like a wireless adapter for a laptop. If you put a wireless adapter into your laptop, connected to your home network, and then drove away with your laptop, you'd lose the signal.

I have another model of Panasonic inverter microwave series and absolutely lose the wifi around the kitchen area when the microwave is on but not in other areas of the house. The router is on a different floor, far. It makes me wonder if it also interferes with living beings at close range.

Not that I know of. I did extensive research in 2012 and found this to be the best on the market.From what I understand it still is in the top three or four but everyone argues theirs is the best. If you are having some kind of interferance can you think of somthing that might be causing it like any form of large machinery, Microwave or electronic device that is "wireless"? Some wifi routers and older cell phones can cause interferance with some sensative electronics.

Your options are A) move the router closer to the bedroom B) replace the antennas on the router - if they are replaceable - with larger/higher gain antennas or C) install a wifi booster. Cisco/Linksys makes one for about $30 and it works pretty well. The Unifi Long Range AP is a great device but if you go for it, I suggest turning off the wifi on your router. Otherwise, you'll be creating two different wireless networks and moving between them may be problematic.

I do not know about improvements over the model I have - BUT - I find this useless for travel, since there is no way to connect to most hotel's wireless Internet - no password, "I accept", etc. Calling the IT guys is nuts, because every time the hotel WiFi shudders - you are booted off, and no way to get back on. I use this at HOME all the time - but my iPhone, or am mp3 player loaded with my podcasts - when I travel. The LIGHT is also very bright - I have the WHOLE FRONT of mine covered with duct tape, because I sleep with Net Radio on - and the light is blinding. Godd for what it is - but could use some serious tweaks. And all stations MUST be set from your computer, too.

The answers below are incorrect. If you have a dual-band router and attach this, it will boost ONLY your 2.4 GHz band and completely disable your 5.0 GHz band. I found this out the hard way. This antenna will NOT boost any 5.0 GHz band. It ONLy works on the 2.4 GHz band.

Yes, but keep in mind every repeater you add will degrade your wireless bandwidth.

I wish you luck. The D-Link knocked out wireless on my laptop! I couldn't get that returned fast enough. The Cisco is powerful and goes from my second floor all the way to the basement. It has 60-70% signal strength down there. My only complaint is that it seems to reset periodically and you drop signal but only for less then a minute. You apparently can't make changes locally but have to do so in the cloud. I haven't changed anything yet so not sure how I will like this.

No. As far as I could tell while I had this device, there's no way to dedicate one of the bands to communicating with the primary router preventing the immediate 50% loss in bandwidth. The previous answer of "yes", I believe, was confusing the fact that this device is dual-band, but that is not what the question asks. Other manufactures call this Boost Band or Fast Lane technology. I found nothing like this in any of the settings of this device.

Not true. All it does is listen for 802.11g a signals and rebroadcasts it. However, a better option would be to buy a Linksys WRT54GL and install the DD-WRT firmware on it. You can then configure it to operate in bridge, repeater, or router mode. See http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Repeater_Bridge. The result will cost less, but do more. :-)

I have not had any problem with the microwave interfering with this router.
