Why do you need a Wi-Fire? Here are three important objective and subjective measures that you should take into consideration. Just take a look at the comparison between the Wi-Fire and other typical adapters.

Wi-Fire’s Range Advantage

Many factors can lower the strength of a WiFi signal, but the most common enemies are physical obstructions and distance to the access point. As a consumer using a standard WiFi adapter increases their distance away from the access point, the usable WiFi signals drop considerably. The Wi-Fire helps the user stay connected even at these distances by having one of the most powerful receive sensitivities in the industry (-98 dBm).

Maximize Throughput with Wi-Fire

Because 802.11b/g wireless protocols use Dynamic Rate Scaling, the maximum throughput levels are decreased as a signal gets weaker. Users can significantly increase their overall connection speeds and maintain high throughput, even when other adapters slow dramatically–thanks to the Wi-Fire’s powerful built-in 10.4 dBi directional antenna, “passive signal conditioning” and receive sensitivity advantage of the internal electronics.

A Better User Connection Experience

Objective metrics are important, but ultimately, actual usability is what Wi-Fi users look for. In most tests, at weak signal levels, the Wi-Fire has provided a usable network connection where an internal adapter could not. While the internal adapters may connect, the connection is often insufficient even for browsing, and high-bandwidth activities can be impossible. In the same environment, the Wi-Fire allows for fast browsing and is even strong enough for the online streaming of video and audio sources. See our Case Studies for more info on real-life Internet experience in a variety of typical scenarios.
