[IBWiFi] Re: JefaTech Repeater



Another update. This thing is amazing, to me anyway. I've used it a couple of places where others used it instead of the "local" signal. Most I've had connected at one time was 17 and didn't notice any slow down.

I did have a problem getting encryption on my side of the connection to work, to only allow those I invite to use it. I sent several emails to tech support 2 months ago and never got a reply, so thought I was being ignored. A couple of days ago I received a notice that a fix was available and it now works. Seems that I somehow "fell through the cracks" in the system. Got a phone call apologizing profusely because they had sent an email to all users disclosing the problem/solution and I had been missed. I'm now a happy camper! I still plan on tweaking it a little to see if I can improve things.

The first thing I did was change the name to something more easily recognizable to the folks I know that might use it.
