A travel device that does a lot.
January 28, 2015 1 Comment 
Satechi seems to have the knack of coming up with very useful, reasonably priced gadgets. The Satechi Smart Travel Router / Travel Adapter is one of them. First off it has a plug that adapts to fit into four of the most common plug configurations used around the world. Then the built-in travel router features four different modes for your wireless networking needs on the road. There are also two options provided to charge your device: an AC power port and a USB port. So this compact adapter is convenient for charging smartphones, laptops, music players, cameras, e-readers, tablets, and other devices all around the world. (Be aware though that the Smart Travel Router can only support passwords containing letters and numbers. Special characters cannot be used.) It also functions as a typical router, connecting to the Internet and broadcasting a wireless signal, enabling you to create your own network or as a repeater, connecting to your existing network and amplifying it. You can find all the tech specs at the company website. It retails for under $50. Be aware Satechi make the same device without the router functions, which sells for about $25. At first I thought I had found this device on sale for half price, but it was not the Travel Router version. $49.99.
