Manufacturer description
Turn up the volume on your Wireless LAN! The Linksys Wireless Signal Booster piggybacks onto your Linksys Wireless Access Point (or Wireless Access Point Router) to increase the effective range and coverage area of the 802.11b network. The added signal strength also helps speed up your close-range communications, because every packet comes through "loud and clear", reducing retransmissions due to reception errors. To install, just stack the Wireless Signal Booster on your Access Point, move the antennas to the Booster, and attach the Booster's twin cables to the Access Point - no drivers or modifications to your setup are necessary. The Linksys Wireless Signal Booster saves wiring costs and helps to build corporate wireless infrastructure by driving signals even into those distant, reflective corners and hard-to-reach areas. And it is perfect for covering large areas in warehouse environments, public spaces, wireless hotspots, and outdoor venues - anywhere you need extra coverage for your wireless LAN.User opinions

I hope it's working!
Pros: very easy install of course I don't have a wifi signal strength program or dbi gain program to give accurate readings but, I did notice my internet connection seems more stable and faster. No change in the microsofts wifi signal meter still says low to g
Cons: Should come with a program that diagnoses critical signal reading and dbi gain before and after. This would be great because this is an expensive product ($80) to drop in your home network if you can't tell the difference at least you have a progam that

Works very well!!
Pros: I can now get a signal 100% of the time where it was once sporadic. Saved a fortune in hard wiring costs.
Cons: None, actually works as advertised.
