Amped Wireless Intros TAP-EX Wifi Extender

The TAP-EX is a sleek and compact wifi extender with an Amped Wireless first-- touchscreen interface allowing for setup as simple as a few taps, with no other devices required.

TAP-EX“As wifi gadgets continue to infiltrate homes, full-home wifi coverage is a requirement and no longer a luxury,” the company says. “With the innovation of the TAP-EX, we now have a solution that is built for everyone as its easy to use and every home can benefit from the device’s power. The TAP-EX is not intimidating, with just a few taps on the touch screen you're up and running in minutes."

According to Amped Wireless the TAP-EX carries up to 800mW of wifi output power (in comparison standard router output clocks at 50mW), allowing it to extend wifi coverage by 930 square metres. Handling such output are 4 total amplifiers and 2 high gain dual-band antennas.

Further connectivity comes through a pair of wired network ports and a USB port for local file sharing.

The touchscreen provides easy access to the setup and management process, as well as easy access to features such as guest networks, access schedules, access controls and signal strength settings, among others. Also included is a Wifi Analytics Windows and Android app allowing users to fine-tune their network for maximum network speed and coverage.

The TAP-EX is available from November 2014.
