As our need increases people try to find a way to increase the range of
the current wireless network. That end with the invention of Wireless
Range Expander. To increase the range and accessibility of a wireless
network from an access point or wireless router we need to add Wireless
Range Expander or simply calling Wireless Repeater in our network.
