At home, the typical case occurs, which is why you yourself At length a repeater. The router is in the basement and the wireless signal is not enough to work in the house with no problems thus can. We got down a few days ago a fiber connection (100 / 50Mbit) of the Telekom into the house and in this context also a new router (W921V) get. With the old router Telekom (W503) the wireless signal downstairs handed pending. With the new, although twice as large and much new, no longer. Deshlab a repeater was searched and I thought: router of the Telekom then repeater of the Telekom to escape worry or trouble out of the way. So the W100 repeater was ordered, delivered and set flux by WPS. What also worked without problems. Now to the actual problem. During the operation of a laptop with Windows XP ran without problems made our two Android smartphones (Galaxy Nexus) problems. Even with two Nexus reception was adequate and it came on the unit average 16-20MBit still on, but once I was using Google software as the PlayStore, Youtube or maps dropped the bandwidth to 0.8 Mbit. Other Apps (Vimeo, library, Amazon Cloud Player and download test files on Chrome) ran 2.5 MB per second. Why just the Apss Google were circumcised over the Repeater I can not say. About the router directly running these apps without any problem and I was able to rule out a problem of management in general. When the problems could not be allayed, I decided in the local electronics market my AVM Fritz Repeater310 to buy for 49.90. Well what can I say? Now everything is running properly. Outfitted WPS he was just as fast and also provides on average a 10 dBm signal better than the W100. Youtube, PlayStore and Maps go now allow a combination of WiFi and repeater with full bandwidth potential. Actually, the Speedport W100 repeater a solid device which performs its task satisfactorily. The AVM Fritz Repeater310 is, I think, still the better product. Because: - He has status LEDs that indicate the signal strength. - The signal strength is better. - It has a service menu where you can make various settings, such as overnight shutdown, software update and Mac filter etc. - In my case, has no problems with Android. - In addition, is only slightly more expensive.
