I am looking for a way to boost bluetooth/WIFI range for iphone 3GS, 4, 4S and IPADs

Hi guys,

Are there any accessories that coud do the trick?


Thanks for taking the time to read my post.

For wifi, you may need a wifi extender in your home. If you're looking for extending wifi anywhere, I don't think there is anything that can help short of using a mifi or something similar (it provides wifi through a carrier). As for bluetooth, considering it's only usable for head/ear phones, keyboards and such things, what do you need to extend it for?

Not likely going to be possible to boost the range of the device its self.


Alternatively you can boost your Wifi in your own household if you have a old router laying around you can turn it in to a Wireless repeater that will Repeat the signal of your wireless network.
