Inexpensive and Seamless Wi-Fi Network Expansion
Introducing the innovative PePWave True Address Gateway designed to overcome a common problem faced by wireless Internet service providers. Coupled with the PePWave Mesh Connector, the integrated solution allows service providers to expand wireless coverage economically.
 New! True Address Gateway 380 |
| Using a Wi-Fi repeater is an inexpensive way to extend high performance wireless networks, however it can cause issues with some providers' network authentication because end-user MAC addresses are lost in transit as the Wi-Fi repeater rewrites the network packets with its own MAC address. |
By providing the existing subscriber gateway with the correct end-user layer-2 identification, PePWave TAG provides a drop-in solution to overcome this issue without any changes to the providers' existing network.

extend wireless coverage, while maintaining authentication integrity.
