Great Wifi Extender
on June 30, 2016
Posted by: OldGreg
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought a new house with a pretty large fireplace. Looks awesome but when I went to plug my old AC1200 Wifi Router in, the entire living room and half of the bedrooms were cut off.
Bought the adapter because it was reasonable quick and had a LAN attachment. This was helpful because the new house wasn't wired and my kid was already on my nerves about not being able to play Xbox Live.
Performs great. Easy to setup. Looks pretty fancy.

Troy Duffy's gritty mob film The Boondock Saints comes to DVD with a widescreen transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 2.35:1. Closed-captioned English soundtracks are rendered in both Dolby Digital 5.1 and Dolby Digital Surround. English and Spanish subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include a commentary track recorded by the director, filmographies for the cast and crew, outtakes, trailers, and deleted scenes. This little-seen film had been given an outstanding DVD release from 20th Century Fox.

Awesome Movie, Awesome Price

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is one of my personal favourite movies.
That being said, I already owned it. And lent it out and was never returned.
And I bought it a second time. And I lent that one out and it was never returned.
I bought this for myself and plan on never lending it out. However, I've gotten more into downloading and streaming movies.
A movie like this, though, would be one I'd want to watch during an apocalypse, so having a hard copy is smart.

Pretty Good Movie
on January 6, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
My son is some sort of Batman freak. 9/10ths of his gifts for Christmas were Batman-related, including this cheap, bargain bin movie.
I sat down with him and watched it and it was entertaining to say the least. It was better than most of the stuff he scrounged up on the net.
However, now I have to find Part 2...

Movie was meh, but made a good stocking stuffer
on January 6, 2016
Posted by: OldGreg
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm doing this review of the benefits of having the movie rather than the content of the movie itself.
This movie was found in a bargain bin and my wife loved the movie, so it was a quick and easy stocking stuffer.
The lightweight (cheap) case is also helpful when we have racks of DVDs that weigh a bunch.
As far as the movie goes, it was pretty. The Aliens Franchise kind of took a step too far and I don't know if it can recover from many of the ideas and thoughts brought up in this film.

Cheap Replacement Cord for iPhone
on January 6, 2016
Posted by: OldGreg
Verified Purchase:Yes
I left home and had a meeting with a client. I'll be darned if my kid or my wife didn't borrow my phone charged from my car.
I was able to run into Best Buy, grab the cord and have my phone charged up enough to make the meeting.
The grey color matches my vehicle color and isn't brightly color since I only have the one cord plugged into my charger.
The price is amazing and was a no-brainer when I needed a new charger. it would have cost more money to turn around and run back home.

Brightly colored aux cable!
on January 6, 2016
Posted by: OldGreg
Verified Purchase:Yes
My bedside table is a rat's nest of various cords, from laptop, phone and tablet charges, to plug ins for lamps and vaporizers.
When I'm reaching around, I like to grab the colored wires that even my sleepy brain can recognize. Purple really sticks out against the backdrop of the plain black and white cords.
For the price, it is worth buying a few to save a few seconds each time you need your aux cable.

Inexpensive Way to Listen to Music on Many Devices
on January 6, 2016
Posted by: OldGreg
Verified Purchase:Yes
This was a splurge buy as I was leaving Best Buy. There was a large bin of them near the check out and the wife and I decided to grab a couple.
The colors were bright and fun, which popped them out against the black wires the snake around my entertainment center.
I already have four black HDMI cords, two black Digital Audio cords (a hassle when I'm trying to switch between my computer and my television, a black aux cable between the TV and the sound bar, a multitude of black mini-usbs for various gaming peripherals. Oh and black cords on the dual headsets.
The green stands out and its easy to just plug in my phone and have music playing within seconds rather than getting frustrated unplugging and trying different plugs until I find the correct one.
And the price is beyond reasonable.

I get the signal from a building nearby will this make my signal stronger

I live in an RV park that has wifi. I can get it in my RV but it is not strong enough to use a Roku. On the Roku it only shows one bar and will not since.

Will this do the trick.
The easiest way to install this extender is by pushing the "Link" button on the wifi router and the "Link" button on the extender. If it is a shared wifi, I'm not sure if you can push the button.

However, there are instructions on how to install it manually. But that requires you know the admin password for the main shared wifi router. It is usually admin/admin, but if it isn't, you'd need permission from the RV park to connect to it.

Would this extender work good enough to reach out to our building about 30-40 ft from the house?

It really depends on your main wifi router.

The instructions say to install it about halfway between the maximum distance of your main router and the zone without coverage.

If you have a reasonable place (not exposed to the weather) to plug it in about halfway between your out building and the main wifi router, it will probably work fine. If you have zero signal in the out building, installing this in the building won't boost it at all.
