What’s the best wireless access point?

by New York Computer Help on June 3, 2008

If your wireless access point is weak, you can strengthen it by installing a wireless access point.  Or if you have a duplex or large square footage area to cover, a wireless access point, or WAP, is an ideal way to extend the signal to hard-to-reach dead spots.

A wireless access point is a piece of equipment that is integrated in a wireless router network.  If you have floors to cover, lots of electronics, or an outdoor area, a WAP is what you need.

So, which wireless access point should you purchase?  They have brought upon rave reviews since it is still a relatively new concept.

Here are our favorite wireless access points:

  1. Netgear Range Extender Wireless Access Point
  2. Linksys Wireless N Access Point
  3. Apple’s Airport Express Access Point

When setting up your wireless access point, pay particular attention to any firware upgrades that are necessary.  And by all means, make sure that your spyware and viruses are at a minimum.  The last thing you want to do is spread such maliciously material wirelessly throughout your network.
