Transfer files between your iPad, iPhone and computer without the hassle of email or cloud options by using the SanDisk iXpand flash drive. Like standard flash drives, it has a USB connection for your computer. The SanDisk iXpand flash drive also has a lightning connection for iOS devices so moving files between phones, tablets and computers is easy.

Great Idea- Poor Fit

Verified Purchase:Yes
I assumed when buying a flash drive with a USB fitting that it would fit into my USB ports. Well, the lighting port end fit my I-pad but the USB port fitting would not fit my USB ports. Wouldn't fit the printer or either of my ports on my Lenovo desk top. I returned the product.

Lower Price, excellent Performance
on July 23, 2017
Posted by: Highlandsguy
Verified Purchase:Yes
My new New I-Pad 128 was less expensive than the previous model I had but with more memory. Greater choices in color, it has all the capability of a basic I-Pad. Apples strategy is to lower the price of the basic unit and release a higher end unit called the I-Pad Pro with keyboard. I like the convenience of the basic model and now I have plenty of memory

Stream movies, TV shows and music, or play your favorite games online without disruption. This router lets you simultaneously stream on multiple devices, and even access your network when you’re not at home with the OpenVPN Connect app.

Good performance for a price
on March 26, 2017
Posted by: Highlandsguy
Verified Purchase:Yes
After experiencing poor performance from less expensive router of a different brand, I purchased the nighthawk with the hope of solving my weak wifi problem. It has done that, albeit at a higher price. Unit was easy to install and was picked up immediately by my devices. My only issues are that it has a larger footprint with four antenna and its function lights throw off a lot of light in a dark room- don't install this in a bedroom

Pretty easy set up but still not sure how one resets settings if needs be. Requires a strong and stable wifi system. Ms Google isn't quite as smart as I'd like. Getting a lot of answers that aren't helpful. Speakers are ok. Microphone seems pretty good.

Smart WiFi

I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to install this router. It practically installed itself. My six devises that are on my net had no problem hooking up. On the negative side, I have found the range to be more limited than I'd like. I sometimes find the performance in certain areas to be less than optimal

Do you need a smartphone to use Google Home? I'd like to give this to someone who has WIFI and a tablet but not a smartphone. If a smartphone is only required for setup, I could use my smartphone to set it up. Will this limit ongoing functionality?

I assume the app, either Apple or Droid will be fine on a tablet.

I initially set this up in Dallas. Now that I am back in San Diego California, the device does not recognize my new location. When I ask "Where is the nearest Subway?" It will give me a location in Dallas but not in San Diego. How do I correct this?

Would assume there some setting in the Google Home app for that.

Trying to find the app I need to set up google home.

I found the app on the Apple App Store but instructions say there's a droid app also. Search for "Google Home" app

when you use this do yo have to have music purchased or can you google a song? use pandora?

When you set it up, you specify which music service is your default. We use Pandora. It has only chosen Pandora so far but it did pick out a Happy Birthday on its own. You do need a strong wifi signal. The set up is done with an free app you down load
