Input:
Question: Would this work with the Etekcity 1000mW 802.11 B/G adapter, which uses the same chipset as AWUS036H?
Document: ....documentation is minimal and not helpful. I got the R36 to use with the ALFA Alfa 2000mw 2W Waterproof Marine high power Long Range Outdoor 802.11 B, G, N, USB wireless network Wifi Adaptor with Integrated 12dBi Antenna aka the UBDO-NT. Before purchasing both items at the same time, I had read all the reviews here and was concerned about my ability to make the necessary firmware update to the R36 and get the two items communicating with each other.
Select Easy Setup. It will display a set of radio buttons. In almost all cases you want the USB Wireless Adapter option, which uses the Alfa adapters. It can also handle other devices, e.g. 3G modems, but you need to check the list of modems supported by the R36. I would guess that it handles most Huawei modems, but I prefer using a 3G hotspot device and have never tried it or the WAN (router) option.
Does what you would expect acceptably.Extends the signal that is picked up by the Long-Range WiFi network Adapter (AWUS036H) and re-distributes the signal. (you will need both to create a repeater "station")This is an signal output device only. You need to plug something in for it to broadcast like the AWUS036H.Or you can us this with a 3G/4G USB device and share the access.
I ordered this to use with the Alfa 2W marine wifi adapter. You might think that since they are manufactured by the same company that they would work together. No such luck. I contacted customer support and that went nowhere so now the r36 is just sitting in the box. It really irritates me.
As for now, the whole Alfa set, R36 +AWUS036H +extra 9db antenna, are of little use. I would have to reset (unplug/plug the power connector of the R36) the system to get it to work as a WIFI hotspot for 5 minutes or up to a few hours. Then it's dead again.
In the rare instance that it has hung up I simply Unplug, count to 10,plug in and wait for the WLAN light to come back on. The newer firmware seems more reliable, at least with the AWUS036NH.I have used the R36 with the AWUS036H as well as the AWUS036NH/UBDo-nt and AWUS036NHR. They all work well provided the firmware matches the adapter. The power adapter supplies 12V DC which is handy in a boat or RV.
I've purchased and installed about three of these routers and have mixed results. It's a good solution if you have a fairly strong signal coming in over your Alfa AWUS036H adapter, however don't plan on using it if there's plenty of packet loss because this won't cope well with it. I've had connections which are not perfect but still manage to push through directly on the computer fail to work for more than a couple hours with the router. It required constant rebooting to resume the connection.
I have spent hours trying to get this to work as a router integrated with the AWUS036H (Internet adapter). Following all the set up procedures and even uploading new firmware for some reason it will not allow me to access my internet AP which is about 400 yards away. The adapter does a great job of amplifying the signal and I get 4 bars when connected directly to the usb port on the computer. To log on it takes me directly to the portal site and from there I have a good internet connection.
Occasionally the R36 will "hang up" and not function. I do not know the exact cause of this. The remedy is to remove power from the R36 for maybe 15 seconds and then reapply power. The R36 will then resume its previous operation.My application uses a high-gain outdoor antenna and close-mounted wifi adapter in a weatherproof housing to connect with a distant signal (access point) up to 3 miles away.
An important part of negotiating a fast connection is how well the remote AP receives your signal, i.e. even if the remote AP is powerful, if you aren't then a slow connection will result. Before using the UBDo-nt adapter all I had were 1-11 Mbps connections. With the UBDo-nt I get 65Mbps.
Answer: Not sure about the Etekcity but I used it with the WiFiSky 1500 mW, which ises the same chipset as the AWUS036H, and it worked fine. so it probably will work with the Etekcity is it use the same chipset
