Setting it up is as easy as connecting one access point to your router/gateway, and connecting the other to your networkable device, such as your XBox, Playstation, Wii, TiVo HD, Slingbox, digital set-top boxes, NETGEAR's Digital Entertainer HD, Apple TV, network attached storage, and more. Setup is easily and securely done with a simple "Push 'N Connect" feature using Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), which eliminates the need to remember or input security password keys. It automatically configures to access point or bridge mode depending on the type of Ethernet enabled device it connects to.p To add another HD Bridge to your HD network, the NETGEAR 5 GHz Wireless-N HD Access Point/Bridge is available.p bMinimal Interference = Outstanding Performance/bbr Most wireless devices today, such as Wi-Fi devices, cordless phones, Bluetooth devices, microwaves, and baby monitors, operate on the 2.4 GHz frequency, thus creating a lot of traffic and interference. The WNHDEB111, however, operates on the 5 GHz band which has up to 23 free channels and avoids the interference that most other devices must contend with.p The WNHDEB111 complies with the latest Wireless-N draft specification for the fastest possible Wireless-N speeds. Automatic Quality of Service (QoS) ensures lag-free gaming and jitter-free HD streaming. It supports wireless "ad-hoc" mode for wireless LAN peer-to-peer gaming and supports multicast point-to-multi-point HD video streaming.p The WNHDEB111 supports WiFi Protected Access (WPA2-PSK, WPA-PSK), and 64-bit and 128-bit WEP encryption and is backed by a 1-year warranty.p bWhat's in the Box/bbr Two 5 GHz Wireless-N HD Access Point/Bridges, two stands, two Ethernet cables, setup CD, two power adapters, and warranty/support information card. br clear="all" center table align=center cellpadding=10 tr valign=top td width="553" img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/wnhde111-2-lg.jpg" border=1brbrspan class="caption"The WNHDEB111 avoids interference from 2.4 GHz wireless devices. /span /td td width="207" img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/wnhde111-3-sm.jpg" border=1 align=topbrbrspan class="caption"Adding Wireless-N to your existing home network is simple.

 Bad Range, otherwise perfect January 4, 2009
Already have a great Motorola G router wifi gateway, but needed faster for my PS3 for online gaming. I had just had a horrendous experience with the D-link DGL-4500 trying to do the same (see my other reviews lol) so I returned it and bought this set.br / Hooked up easily, and pretty much worked right out the box which was great since I previously had 9 hours of nightmares with the D-link. It did what it advertised, made a seperate bridge and did not interfere with the Motorola which I was already running a desktop and 2 laptops from. Very easy to use, nice manual and support, nice product. Only negative was that they are ugly, have to be mounted verticaly (built in antenna) and no external antenna option, hiding them reduced range, they like to be up and seen lol. I did call customer service as I was getting some disconnects. They where friendly, but we figured out that not the 3 room distance, but the 5 walls was a little too much. Darn it as my 2.5 mhz stuff could read fine, but alas, as others have written, 5mhz does have less range. I moved this a little closer (4 walls) and it worked great, but was not feasible. I soon painstakenly ran my own 100ft ethernet cable and am zooming fine now, but alas, waited too long to return these. So, if you need a bridge with speed and without too many complications and you don't need long range or have too many walls, I would recomend this product. If you need range than I would say look for a good 2.5mhz bridge/system. Peace, Big Daddy Ron AKA ps3 BIGDADDYRON1961
 perfect for adding xbox 360 to network if U have router December 27, 2008
I struggled with how to add kids xbox to my network. This was easy as pie. There are 2 more ethernet ports available after using this to create an ethernet wifi to a remote xbox. I connected it to my pre-existing router via ethernet and I have a great N device wirelessly connected with ethernet and have 1 extra port remote, and 1 wired local. The only problem is there are only 2 ethernet ports per device (you buy 2 devices for 150, each has 2 ports, 1 port is a source, 1 remote to the xbox; it's that easy).br /
Great speed and connectivity, no true Wii support December 10, 2008

This really is a superb system for networking. For a basic user, the setup could not be more simple. I placed both devices in the same room next to one another and connected one to my router and went off from there. Really no need to use the software at all -- you push a few buttons and you're done (unless you want to do a more advanced setup, but this is not needed). Once I new everything was communicating, I put one device upstairs and one down. I recommend near center in your house if possible. br /br /The range throughout my home is fantastic. Upstairs I have the router and a TiVo connected. Downstairs I have a TiVo and an Xbox 360. Everything worked instantly with no hassle.br /br /If I have one gripe, it is this: All of the advertising material for this product states it is compatible with the Wii. This is false, or at least very misleading. The Wii cannot connect to a 5Ghz signal. Netgear Support will tell you that it is compatible if you use it as a network bridge and hard-wire the Wii into the WNHDEB111. The problem is that the Wii has no network port. To add a network port to a Wii, you must buy a USB Network Adapter for an MSRP of $24.99. So, while it is true that the Wii can be connected, additional hardware and cost is required to do so. So, out of the box, this device is not compatible with the Wii.br /br /For me, I have a wireless G router which is still broadcasting. The Wii is connected wirelessly to this 2.4Ghz signal and now the new signal at 5Ghz connects all other devices in my home.br /br /So, to conclude: fantastic signal, speed, and setup -- Wii support is false.
FAST... but know what you're buying November 27, 2008
Although this is marketed as an "HD/Gaming" wireless kit, it's important to know what this really is and how to use it.br /br /MOST IMPORTANT: This kit isn't a router -- you cannot create a Wireless N network with it alone. It is designed to add to your existing network... often a wireless 2.4 GHz network (commonly 802.11 b/g). This will provide high-speed "802.11n" at 5 GHz so it doesn't interfere with a current b/g network. Any wireless b/g devices (Xbox wireless adapter, PS3 internal wireless, b/g laptops, b/g network cards, etc.) currently used on the network will be unaffected by this addition.br /br /HOW THIS WORKS: The kit features two identical units -- one unit will plug into your existing network's router via Ethernet as an "access point", and the other unit will plug into the Ethernet device(s) (Xbox, PS3, computer, etc.) as a "bridge". Once the two units sync, it will behave as if the device(s) plugged into the bridge is hardwired to the network router. br /br /Each unit has two Ethernet ports... if you want to plug a 3rd (or more) devices in to the "bridge", you will need to add a switch like NETGEAR FS105 ProSafe 5-Port 10/100 Desktop Switch. br /br /TECH NOTE: The Ethernet ports on these devices are NOT Gigabit ports, so even though the wireless N signal can achieve 300 Mbit/s, the fastest speed you will achieve on these devices is 100 Mbit/s. However, this speed is more than enough for multiple HD streams and high-speed gaming.br /br /BENEFITS: As mentioned, your current B/G network is unchanged, so any wireless activity using that will remain the same. This kit is not designed to replace that network... just add to it. Any device(s) plugged into this Netgear kit will have greater wireless range and a MUCH faster connection than using the older B/G network.
Works great October 17, 2008
I had a little more trouble getting this to work than I thought I would based on the description on the box, but once I got it up and running it worked great. I'm not using all the function, but still I'm quite satisfied.
