Page 3: Introducing Wireplus
WirePlus takes you beyond the world of cords and cables, providing you with a non-invasive, wireless, broadband home network. The WirePlus system consists of two outlets. The WirePlus INT serves as the basis of your home wireless network, while WirePlus XTNs extend that network to every corner of your home. -

The WirePlus XTN By plugging WirePlus XTN outlets into telephone jacks throughout your home you can benefit from full wireless coverage at the highest possible Wi-Fi speeds. Normally, as distance from the transmitting antenna of the wireless access point (WAP) increases, walls and interference cause signal levels to decrease, or result in dead spots. -
