Arrr.

An important part of livin' the pirate lifestyle be about being connected to the Internet.

Up until the release of this wicked awesome USB Router Repeater it wasn't easy to find high quality, easy to use, wifi equipment. And I am sure it is the same for you too, whether you are on a boat, or an RV, or even at home.

We tried a couple of different systems on our sailboat and they didn't work at all. Thank goodness for return policies.

This compact beauty just hit the market on March 1st. We pre-purchased a unit and we received one of the first twenty units shipped. For the sake of full disclosure, this is NOT a paid product placement, we ordered our unit and we paid full price for it.

All it is is this compact blue box. It has an antenna for communicating with your laptop, or whatever, and a standard electrical connection. It then connects to any USB wifi antenna.

Radio Labs has three USB wifi antennas, and we picked the middle sized model.

The coolest thing, all you do is connect the external antenna and plug it in to power it up. No cables, no software, no switches, no drivers, nada.

After you have installed your router repeater, you set it up from one of your computers. You manually type in the server address and log in with the secret code supplied with your unit. The first time you access the repeater you get the Easy Setup screen. All you do is go thought a few easy to follow steps and your repeater is ready to use.

Then, your laptop, cell phone, kindle, iPad, whatever device you have will connect to your repeater. Wicked awesome.

So if ye be wantin' ta pirate some wifi fer yeself, for your boat, RV, whatever, I 110 percent suggest this awesome unit.

I hope you enjoyed this pirate lifestyle TV quickie. Be sure ta be subscribin' so you won't be missing a thing.

With ye help, me goal be ta motivate and stimulate YE friends ta be livin' the pirate lifestyle!

Arrrrr.

The best thing about this guy living on a sailboat is that he is nobody's creepy neighbor.

Mark, this is a very easy unit to setup. I'm glad I waited so long or I would have had a more expensive and complicated system. Most systems require TWO units, one as the access point and one as the client, along with expensive coax cable.
You should ask the folks at Radio Labs...I did setup my unit as a USB adapter. The signal comes in from a USB antenna and is then rebroadcast inside the sailboat. I would assume any USB signal would work, but I don't know for certain.

[GoosePondHideoutWithRob]

I've only had this router/repeater up and running about 6 weeks. I would say it easily picks up signals about 1/4 mile away. They do have a stronger outside antenna and if I mounted the antenna higher I'm sure it would easily increase the range to a mile or more.

[GoosePondHideoutWithRob]

It really is an amazing unit. There is a link to this unit in the description. Connect a USB outside antenna and plug it in. Scan for a signal and save your settings. That's it. Then any wifi device, like a cell phone, or tablet, or laptop connects like any other wifi signal.

Thank you for putting in all the effort into the show that you do.

[GoosePondHideoutWithRob]

It varies with how "clean" the line of sight is. I would estimate a good 1/4 mile in open conditions.

Thanks for making this. Important points missed: Range! about how far does it pick up signal? Please make a video of you running around in your boat and see what you pick-up. Thank you again!

I RV and I agree, same setup screens and at Least twice the price. I like the Alfa R36 and AWUS036H because I can use any wifi antenna, directional or omni-directional. But hey, what ever works, right?

[poorkidd]

I be wanting me some Pirate Internet, thanks!

[igorberezin]

that "mysterious" blue box is an OLD R36 unit from Alfa networks.

This is the best video of the channel 😁😁

I don't always dislike a video, but when I do.
It's this one..

[ashleypurrs]

Arrrr! Always enjoy your videos Captain Rob! :)

[CMLovejoy]

I know I've asked you to show your boat before, but I just think it would be Super Awesome if you did some sailing adventure videos.

[GoosePondHideoutWithRob]

Awesome! It really is a super product. Wicked easy to use.

[GoosePondHideoutWithRob]

If you can get your antenna high enough so there are no buildings etc blocking the signal (line of sight) it should work. The information is in the description.

[GoosePondHideoutWithRob]

And I appreciate you taking the time to watch my videos and post a comment. Thank you!

[MarkTarsis]

I love my Rogue Wave, but it was twice the price of this solution which also looks easier to setup. Is that compatible with 3G USB modems too? Looks like that was in the setup menu you showed.

[GoosePondHideoutWithRob]

I know you will like it as much as we enjoy our unit.

[GoosePondHideoutWithRob]

I suggest contacting Radio Labs directly and asking your advanced questions.
