The best one I think I've ever had--I love it. Has auto shut off so I don't burn the house down if I forget to turn it off also. Very nice--top quality.

Charge your phone or MP3 player and access your external hard drive from one hub. The compact design makes it easy to take it along with you anywhere you go.

It even has a magnet on it to hold the cable closed when not in use, which protects the cable and USB plug from damage when not in use. And it needs to external power source like many do, which means it is easy to use, doesn't get too hot, and has one less power pack to plug in. Just wish there were a few more to choose from--there was only this one and one other that was way too fancy and overpriced at $60. But I might have gone a little better if there had been some other more mid-priced options. Just saying--but no complaints on this one--works fine--exactly as it's supposed to work.

Main router?

I currently have garbage for a router and want to replace it with something with more range. I was wondering if this would work as a MAIN ROUTER BY ITSELF or do I need another router to connect with it?
This is a range extender, not a router--you need a router to get online wirelessly. This will only allow you to extend that router's signal to far away areas that cannot get a good signal on their own due to walls, distance, etc. But YOU NEED A ROUTER first.

I'm sure you can recover your username and password on the linksys website if you just go to it and click on the forgot username / password link. PLUS, the RE3000W should have the serial number, etc on a sticker on the bottom of it.

Local news channels

CanI I get local channels if I only have antanna tv and reception isn't very good ?
You can watch anything and everything you can find on the internet using Chrome as your browser. Some things are blocked--like you can't watch movies on youtube, etc. But if you're savvy and take the time to search the web there are several websites out there where you can watch movies--even movies that are still on in the theatres--as well as TV shows--including pay channel and Netflix only TV shows--online and have your chromcast mirror it on your TV. You are only limited by your imagination and your ability to find content to watch. So basically you can watch anything if you work hard enough at it.

Can you purchase a USB plug (power pak) separately. My system was plug to my tv and we had thunderstorm but now my wii plays but can read the disc
I don't understand what you're asking. What does a USB power pak have to do with your Wii playing but not being able to read it. Sounds to me like it's getting plenty of power. Sounds to me like the mother board or some other component inside the Wii itself has been fried, and therefore it can no longer read the discs. But it wouldn't even come on if the power pak was destroyed--because you wouldn't be getting any power. Common Sense here, folks!!

Can Chromecast mirror my laptop?

Can Chromecast mirror my laptop? For example, when I am having a meeting and need to mirror an Office spreadsheet on the TV....
It depends. As long as you're using Chrome as your web browser then anything you look at on the internet should cast right on up to your TV with no problem. Lots of other websites are set up to work with Chromcast as well, and those sites don't even require you to use Chrome as your web browser. Not sure about the various programs that you would use. But you can use an MHL cable to do it as well, and that doesn't require things to be compatible. Just plug your computer into the MHL adapter, and plug the adapter into the HDMI port on your TV, and viola--instant big screen for your computer. Keep in mind that most MHL adapters are set up with a male micro-USB plug on one end and a female HMDI port on the other--so you'll definitely need a standard HDMI cable, and probably an female micro-USB to male USB adapter to use it with your computer. May need to go to Radio Shack for that adapter--not sure if BestBuy will have that or not. And MHL doesn't work with Mac either. Hope this helps. Good luck!

Compatibility with WNDA3100

Is the AC1200 Dual band wireless range extender compatible with a Netgear WNDA3100
Sure--should be. Any range extender should be compatible with your AC1200 because they are backwards compatible--meaning they will work with AC, N, G or B wifi signals. But aside from that, all routers and extenders, regardless of manufacturer, should be compatible--they are just sending out and receiving wireless signals, and none of the frequencies they are using are proprietary--in other words they are all working in the same frequency range, so they are fully compatible--they're specifically made to be.

Does this product create a 2nd internet connection?

I purchased the netgear brand and am going to return it within the next few days, it caused problems with my internet connections. It also created a second internet connection to my wireless network, my network-EXT. Does this devices extend the wireless network or create a seperate connection like the netgear device?
NO--it only extends your current wifi connection to cover more area--in other words if you're having trouble getting the signal in an area of your home that is far away from your router, then you would put this extender halfway between the the router and the area where you need to increase the signal strength, and it will just help the signal to reach that area with better signal strength so that you can use the wifi in that area of your home.
