    I'm confused… what does this thing actually do?

    • Snoop on 06/08/2014 - 10:59

      As above^^^
      Is this like a range extender, a router, or just wifi usb dongle???

        it does everything !!!

        • Snoop on 06/08/2014 - 11:02

          Think I might hold out for an AC version that does even more!!!

        • Lukian on 06/08/2014 - 11:30

          Ooh, free viruses too? :D (We do like EVERYTHING!)

    • effgee on 06/08/2014 - 11:00

      I got the same email and said 'meh'.

      It shares your internet connection, as far as I can tell only useful if you have a PC with a wired connection and no wifi available and no existing wifi card.

      Put this item on usb port in computer who have the network, and it will give you a private wireless network, so it is more like a personal hotspot, but require desktop or laptop already with network connection.

    From their website:

    Was: $19.95 You Save: 10%

    Say what?

    • jv on 06/08/2014 - 11:05

      It's normally 10% more than $0.00…

      • Lukian on 06/08/2014 - 11:31

        I guess it's normally $5.445 with delivery included then?

    Can't see it does anything other than recreate a wifi network that you would already have.

      DOUBLE WIFI!

      Rainbow colours!

      Imagine the speeds!

  • morpheu on 06/08/2014 - 11:12

    going by the description this is just a usb wifi adapter, the "Broadband Router" part had me puzzled as it would need a sim card slot to re-route the 3G to wifi, which this is not!

    • Snoop on 06/08/2014 - 11:16

      But it says things like set the phone… So I'm thinking it's more like a network repeater/range extender type thing. Kind of like a phone's hotspot function? Like someone said, I could only see it being useful for a wired network!

      • morpheu on 06/08/2014 - 11:34

        yes, i read the listing before posting, the part about Set the phone will open in WiFi, select 360-xxxx, enter the password to connect appears to be just how to setup a simple wifi connection on your phone, also i think a wifi extender normally needs more power than a usb port can supply, so an external power adapter may be needed

      • DH on 06/08/2014 - 12:01

        Hmm might be useful on Government networks that don't provide Wifi anywhere, a crappy business that doesn't believe in BYOD or giving out the wifi password (even though they called you in as an IT tech).

        • Snoop on 06/08/2014 - 12:34

          Similar issue here… Our company's wifi network's passwords have been changed and kept secret. I imagine to stop us from hooking our phones, tablets, etc. up to it!
          I once had a spare wifi router of mine plugged into a spare port… but it's a little bit noticble! This could be interesting provided I can install the driver!

        • mathew42 on 06/08/2014 - 12:44

          Be careful with this. In many organisations they will be monitoring the network and connecting an unauthorised device would be considered a breach of company policy with the appropriate sanctions. Secondly your network traffic will be monitored and again lead to breaches of company policy.

        • Snoop on 06/08/2014 - 13:10

          @mathew42:
          The company doesn't really monitor our use, but the IT company that we use (that I used to work for) can/does report back to them! Our network is fairly locked down nowadays with OpenDNS anyway, which is why I haven't been too fussed. Smart phones and tablets are awesome for the stuff they don't want us to see! Although I did have to get them to unblock OzB, as it was listed as an ecommerce/shopping site!!!

        • DH on 06/08/2014 - 13:54

          @mathew42:

          Lol I was talking about places I don't work eg the government jobs center
