I would like to buy the EX6110 wifi extender

Where can I buy one of these please? All I seem to see advertised is the EX6120 is the upgraded version of the 6110? what are the differences please? I searched online but can't find any information.

     the difference: basically it boils down to the EX6120 has external antenna's and a ethernet port. The EX6110 doesn't.

      Thanks for your speedy reply.

      Do you know if the courage is better with the EX6120? If so how do you know?

        I'm not sure how courageous either device is.

        do you mean range? :)

        Some people like having extenal antenna's. I personally haven't seen much difference when I've ran external antennas versus internal. But I do know the EX6120's ethernet port is a benefit. If the adapter firmware gets corrupted somehow, you can still recover it via that port. Or if you have something to hardwire in, you can. Or you can use it in access point mode if there's an option to hardwire it to your router. It gives it more uses than the ex6110
