A system implemented on an Android device designed to extend the range of a wireless network. This involves the device receiving the existing signal from a wireless router and then re-transmitting it, effectively broadening the area covered by the network. As an example, consider a situation where the signal from a home router does not reach the far end of a property; an Android device configured in this manner and placed midway can relay the signal to that area.
The significance of such a system lies in its potential to provide network connectivity in areas where the original signal is weak or nonexistent. This enhances the user experience by eliminating dead zones and allowing for consistent access to online resources throughout a given space. Historically, dedicated hardware devices served this function, however, leveraging Android devices offers a cost-effective and readily available alternative.
