Do you know someone with a TV in their living room?

With the TVKeyboard, you'll begin a journey into the richest imaginable multi-media experience... it all starts by connecting a keyboard to the TV in your living room. From there, we can help you create a fully functional multi-media jukebox, that will serve as a hub for all of your family's favorite TV, Movies, Music, Photos, Video Games, and more. Every device you own (PC, Smartphone, Tablet, TV, DVD/Blu-ray player, Game Console, etc.) will be interconnected through an easy to use Home Network.

Extend your wifi range

Your WiFi Router is on one level of the house, and you have a crappy signal on a different level, the front porch, etc.

Solution: Extend your WiFi range with a Repeater.  There are a few ways to set this up.

You can put your router into Bridge Mode, which will give you a 2nd WiFi connection anywhere you have an electrical outlet.  Once you tell your phone or laptop about both connections, you can easily switch between the two.  My phone switches to the strongest signal automatically.

Downside: the secondary signal will not give high download speeds, so it's not great for HDTV or high-volume downloads.  But web browsing and even streaming low-def TV = OK.

Here are a few articles about it:
