The Dodocool N300 is a wireless extender that can also be a router or a WiFi Access Point.

This makes it ideal in many scenarios as a low cost WiFi multi purpose tool.

This unit was sent to me to review with my honest opinion and results below.

Specifications
Frequency: 2.4GHz
Speed: Up to 300Mbps
Protocol: 802.11b/g/n

The kit includes the DC38 extender, instructions, and a Ethernet cable.

The two large antennas help with receiving a signal and transmitting it.

Setting up the Dodocool N300 in extender mode is easy to do with a WPS button on the router. It can also be configured manually if needed but using the WPS method is much easier and quicker.

Basically, plug it in and press the large WPS button on the center.

The router WPS button then needs to be pressed within two minutes and the units will sync together.

Using the AP mode requires login into the unit with the Ethernet cable and setting it to AP mode. It also can be set as a mini router if needed.
 
Summary
I am still testing out the dodocool N300 so far with good results.

There are many options and ways to use it, as an extender, router, or Access Point.

While the other options are nice most will no doubt use it as an extender which is easy to setup.

The low-cost makes it a nice option along with the large antennas to pick up and extend a WiFi signal.

The one downside is it works with the wireless-N protocol which does have some benefits with distance.

If you are looking for a wireless-AC unit then Dodocool also makes the AC750 which is a nice unit. Read full Dodocool AC750 review here.

I will update this posts as I have more time to test it and if anything changes.
