I installed the system in my house. It worked but worse than the system I already had in place. Previously I was using directional antennas to boost and direct signals from my basement to an upper floor in my house. I tried auragrid and the signal was there but weaker in the upper floors. There must a large amount of loss in the coax as it runs up to the floors. I think it could be useful if you had a cement or metal wall that wireless could not penetrate but in a fairly open wood house like mine it did not carry the signal further or project the signal better from the localized antennas.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"What's the best gaming laptop for under 1,500 bucks? I had my eye on the P7805u (Gateway), but it seems Best Buy has run out for the time being. Also, as a secondary question, I like the specs on brands such as iBUYPOWER and CyberPower and the like, but are they reliable? I'm a little worried about buying labels that aren't huge like Dell, Gateway, etc. Thanks!"
