| Chino, CA – June 17th, 2014 – Amped Wireless, the leading manufacturer of high power, long-range wireless solutions for the home and office, today announced the availability of the new BoostBand™ Technology firmware update for their most powerful Wi-Fi Range Extender yet, the REA20. The REA20 is a High Power AC1200 Wi-Fi Range Extender that extends the range of an existing Wi-Fi network by up to 10,000 sq ft.Now with the help of Amped Wireless’ exclusive Boostband™ Technology, the REA20 is even more powerful. This new technology increases the overall speed and performance of the Range Extender by streamlining dual band network traffic between the extender and the router through a single Wi-Fi frequency band. When enabled, BoostBand™ Technology will route all data through the fastest frequency band, normally the 5GHz 802.11ac connection to the router to take advantage of the increased bandwidth associated with the new Wi-Fi standard. Utilizing a single frequency provides the REA20 with more computing power to devote to delivering data packets faster, resulting in faster downloads, media streaming, and data transfers. With BoostBand™ Technology enabled, users can still connect to the range extender using the 2.4GHz or 5.0GHz frequencies. |
