Review and Guide to setup the New Tenda W150M WiFi 150MBPS Wifibridge
I've been testing the Tenda W150M AP/Router/Wirelessbridge for the last month or so to test its
stability and reliability as found the Vonets VAP11G can be hit and miss. Well I've got to say the
Tenda W150M works as good as any 85MBPS Homeplugs! Its works absolutely superb and is a
doddle to setup!

Its can either be powered by supplied USB lead or supplied 3PIN PSU. This is great for Satellite
receivers such as the Blade BM7000S or the Technomate TM5402HD that only have one USB port,

WiFi Solution for ALL receivers! You won’t believe how good this WiFi Solution really is until you try
it. Once configured you can easily
ly tuck behind your receiver/
