Pepwave Surf 400 The Pepwave Surf 400 is a versatile piece of equipment that allows users to connect to a WiFi source and repeat/extend that signal and/or convert from wireless to wired access via the Surf's ethernet port. Popular uses for the Pepwave Surf 400: Extend the WiFi range from your router Pick up external WiFi sources (e.g. campground WiFi, citywide WiFi, etc - virtually any network that is either open or for which you have the password*!) and create a secure private network from it Extend WiFi to a second building up to 600' away (for example, a garage, out-building, next-door neighbor's house, etc) Use nearby WiFi as a backup/failover solution for home/office Give ethernet-only equipment a way to get online Extend the wireless range of hotspots like the MiFi and add ethernet capability (and get around the 5-user limit!) NOTE: The Pepwave Surf 400 is intended to connect to external WiFi sources to be used for Internet access ONLY - it is not a full-fledged router. Due to NAT constraints, it does not support Windows or Mac File sharing protocols. If you need a product that supports the wireless bridge functionality of the Pepwave Surf but also provides full routing capabilities, please consider one of the routers with WiFi as WAN capabilities . In a line-of-sight environment, the typical range for the Surf 400 is 500 meters (for more range, a high-gain WiFi antenna can be added). Actual range will vary based on the output power of the access point, obstacles and interference, and atmospheric conditions. *while the Surf 400 works with MOST WiFi sources, we cannot guarantee compatibility with every WiFi source - compatibility can be affected by the type of hardware or security setup used by the administrator of the WiFi source Pepwave/Peplink Router

The Pepwave Surf 400 serves me well by helping to create my sub network,my internet radios and computer now have 100% of their own signal,without diluting the main signal off the my fi 2200 and MBR 95! A perfect solution for people who have to use mobile wifi.

This unit does no better than the pepwave mini!

Date Added: 06/23/2011 by Mathew F. (Glendale, AZ)

Fails to provide a consistent Internet connection. Then, following the advice of your tech support department upgraded the antenna to the Hawking corner unit. The performance seems to have gotten worse.

3Gstore Comments:
Sorry, it isn't working for you. Looking at the notes from your support calls, the problem may not be with the router, but with the trees and distance to your guest house.

Customer wants to transmit from the house, to the guesthouse covering 1 Acre and signal is going between trees.

He had the impression that the Pepwave was going to boost the signal coming from the MBR1000 in the main house to the guesthouse, advised no . Unless he sets the pepwave in the main house and then beams it line of site to the guest house. he still will experience issues because he does not have a clear line of site. Customer will try to place the pepwave in the main house and beam through a window to the guest house. If this does not work customer will consider a hawking antenna,

So far it's performing beautifully. It's doing everything I want it to. Thanks for your support - I really appreciate all the time your store took to answer my questions.

Much better than my previous WiFi signal amplifier for indoor use.
