Wi-Fi Boosters

I read an article a month or so ago about a device that boosts Wi-Fi signals by pulling in multiple Wi-Fi signals and combining those into one stronger signal. I can't recall the name.

Anyone use such a device? If so, are you satisfied with it?

cradlepoint wipipe ... it will combine wifi, cellular and hard wired connections (which could be satellite for example), depending on model

you won't be able to combine two slow wifi and suddenly have enough speed for Netflix for example, since you're still using two connections, and netflix will only talk to one of them. however if you're surfing and doing email for example, the router can bounce requests between connections, net result, faster service.

There are several on the market. I have used one of the Alfa usb connected adapters and had good luck with them. Especially bringing in signal from a distance. Alfa also now makes a repeater with a external antenna that attaches outside of the RV that seems by posts I had read seems to work really good. WeBoost also makes a good booster from all accounts so best bet would be to research and research some more. Look for videos on what others feel about their experience.
