“Is a remote outside antennae available as an accessory? Is this unit also classified as a "repeater"? I need to set up on a boat with no computer. It needs to be "free standing" repeater / extender?”

• I think a repeater uses the same network name. This one creates a new network name, so it's really an extender. You just need a source signal that IT can connect to, and then it creates a new network with a better local signal. However, keep in mind IT is still communicating back to the source using that weaker signal.
