Extend Your Wireless Range To 300 meters With Wi-Fire

A new Pennsylvania-based startup, hField Technologies, has just gotten FCC approval for their new powered-up WiFi antenna, the Wi-Fire. The USB antenna boosts reception of faint WiFi signals, extending the range of existing networks up to 1,000 feet (or more than 300m).

hField's founders, recent Lehigh University graduates, had originally built the product for a student entrepeneurial challenge, and won first place. Earlier this summer, hField also recieved $25,000 of funding from a state-funded development organization. The Wi-Fire is now on sale through hField directly for USD$150 for Windows only (at least for now). It is guaranteed to put as big of a smile on your face when you start surfing on your laptop at your favourite locations with this cool gadget.
