A:Answer The service you are using does not matter. All this does is pick up a very weak signal, then create a localized boosted version for you to connect to. It still has to do its best with that weak signal. If your router is in a location where it gives you a full, unobstructed signal, and about 125 feet away you are still getting a 10-20% signal strength, place this at that point and it will give you a "new:" network name that is full strength. Another 125 feet away, that might once again reduce to 10-20%. Keep in mind that now all your signals are going across to that 10-20%, then this extended is communicating BACK to the modem at 10-20% strength again. Your original modem wireless network name might be HOMEBASE. Using this extender, you'll create a new name such as HOMEBASE_EXT, and that's the one you will use. Technically, you could get 2 of these and then place them at each 85 foot interval, and maybe get a little better strength at each. But then HOMEBASE_EXT2 will still be communicating with HOMEBASE_EXT, and then it communicates with HOMEBASE. You're literally creating a bunch of "cell towers" to pass along a signal. That's all this is doing.
