Synet Windy 31 is an USB wireless router that has convinced lots of users that network mobility is something worth investing money into. Fully automated, with a compact design and easy installation, this router model definitely sells well. It poses in terms of Internet service compatibility, yet, users criticize its too short USB head and the absence of Draft N support. In some product descriptions this USB wireless router is not even depicted as a router. The explanation here comes from the fact that Windy31 is far from the conventional router model.
A USB wireless router that looks like an USB card, this is the best depiction of Windy31. It works great for travelers because they can create a connection on almost any computer. Just plug the device into one of the USB ports on your computer and get it started. You should check all the technical features of such a device and decide whether to make a purchase or not based on your exact needs. Assess your needs very well too, because you may not even need an USB wireless router if the Internet access you get on your mobile is enough.

But if you are inseparable from your laptop, then an USB wireless router makes a very nice 'toy'. Sometimes you may need a firewall software or an anti-virus to run in parallel and keep your network secured against external intrusions. Check reviews for the USB wireless router design, and see what other people have to say about it. In case you want to create a home or an office network, there are other options you need to evaluate.
Any wireless router has two or more USB ports through which you can connect peripherals using Ethernet cables. I'll give you an example of when you are going to use such ports. When you want to connect a wireless printer and use it in the network you will need the Ethernet cables in the early setup stage. The printer will first be connected to the router through the USB port and when the setup is complete, you will be able to remove the connecting cables.
If you check for installation tips you will see that some of the instructions you get online are more difficult. The installation process may pose different challenges depending on what peripherals you are trying to connect and how compatible they are with the router and each other. I strongly recommend that you check all the protocols in detail to minimize mismatch cases!
