Boost Weak Wi-Fi With Quicky Jr II for the Mac

Quicky_Jr_IIThis seems to be a small USB Wi-Fi card with a giant antenna, but I’m not really sure it will actually boost the Wi-Fi range of a Mac as claimed. The Quicky Jr II from Quickertek plugs into any USB port on a Mac running OS X 10.4 or later, and the company claims it boosts the range of Wi-Fi by three times.

Quicky Jr II supports 802.11 b/g/n, and I guess it replaces the internal Wi-Fi on your Mac. It will set you back $90 to find out how well it works, which is kind of expensive, especially for a clunky USB solution to a problem you may not have. Of course, if you can’t reach your home Wi-Fi network all the way out by the pool, maybe this is for you.
