Great product, but you need the remote

Verified Purchase:Yes
For some reason when you try to use a universal remote, it will jump 2 volumes instead of one -which means it is either very loud or very low.
You have to use the included remote to be able to go just 1 bar and not the 2.

Purchased this for computer audio for webmeetings. It has 3 settings so make sure you leave it on the correct setting, otherwise it will only pick up in one direction.

Improvement from Surface Pro 3
on February 14, 2017
Posted by: MrPHD
from Pasadena
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bigger screen, faster, and better keyboard than the Surface Pro 3, the 4 is a great update.
Warning: the resolution on the 4 is really high, so certain applications that do not scale up, will look incredibly small, you would have to downsize the resolution for those particular instances.

Pretty much any Windows laptop that shipped with Windows 8 has Miracast tech inside of it, which means you can connect wirelessly (audio/video) to the MS Wireless display adapter. Incredibly useful for conference rooms.

Looks nicer but not as good as Surge
on February 14, 2017
Posted by: MrPHD
from Pasadena
Verified Purchase:Yes
After having the Surge for 2 years, which the band easily wears off, switched to the Blaze. i do like the color screen and now it shows some emojis (which the surge was incapable of). I do notice that the vibration alerts do not always work/or can be felt. Also, turning it on to look at the time is also a bit more difficult. You have to either raise your wrist way above you for it to turn on, or tap it 2-3 times to bring it up. This makes checking the time not so subtle. The Surge always had the time on, even if it was dimly lit.

NETGEAR Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender: Broaden your network connection with a range extender that gives you extra Wi-Fi coverage in your home. Smart LED indicators will direct you to the optimal location to plug the extender into the wall, so you can easily enjoy improved range and speed on your mobile and wired devices. Save on data usage by connecting your smartphone or tablet to your home network.
 

Cabled Use?

My cabled network has drops on both far ends of the house. Since this has an Ethernet jack, can I connect it to my switch on the opposite side of the house to extend my wireless network's range?
No, this is the opposite of what you are describing. This device provides a wireless network drop for you - from an already existing wifi connection.

What you're looking for is basically another wireless router, not an extender.

Any SSD will work, but I'm a fan of the Samsung 840PROs - or the Samsung 840 EVOs.
