Halo Long Range WiFi Extender System
The Halo long-range WiFi extender system takes a weak WiFi signal – at a marina, for example, or truck stop, basecamp, etc – and powerfully boosts it, repeating it back to you up to 7 miles away in perfect conditions.
The Halo system then takes the boosted WiFi signal and routes it through the RedPort Optimizer WiFi hotspot. With the RedPort Optimizer, you can share your WiFi connection with all the WiFi-capable devices near you – on your boat, truck, or building. Multiple users can connect to the Optimizer and share your long-range WiFi Internet connection seamlessly and fast.
User Reviews
“Here is the winner. It was easy to install and works like a charm, has plenty of power, pulls in a weak signal, covers a range up to 7 miles, works wonderfully on Skype and gives us freedom to work simultaneously on multiple devices like a laptop and iPad and was not breaking the bank…I liked what I saw, this unit was the top of the bunch for Marine and RV application, weatherproofed with o-rings and silicon rubber seal, carrying tube machined out of stainless steel with incorporated 1”-14 thread to accept the Standard Marine Antenna Mount, included was a neat “Optimizer” router which could handle Cell Networks, Satellite Phone for Satellite Internet beside the “Red Port Halo WiFi Extender”. Included too was a 32 ft coiled up Antenna/Power Cable, a bag with assorted Hardware and an easy to follow Quickstart Guide and Setup Manual. A truly professionally, nicely put together package by someone, who must have done a lot of research.” -Marlene and Benno Klopfer Click Here to view their blog.
We got the Halo Wi-Fi Extender for our RV. Installation was straight forward. We mounted the antenna on the ladder with a piece of hardware that allows it to be lowered 90 degrees when we are traveling (extending back, parallel to the roof). When it is raised to the upright vertical position, the antenna extends well above the roof of the RV to maximize reception. The cable from the antenna enters the coach through the refrigerator vent, so it was not necessary to drill any holes in the roof. Everything about this product is first-class . . . fit and finish, top-quality workmanship, customer service . . . all excellent. It looks like this product is built to last. You can probably find a cheaper brand out there somewhere, but that’s exactly what you’ll get: a cheaper product. Will it last as long as the Halo? Will it work as well. I doubt it. The Halo is the best we could find and I’m happy we got it. -Tupelo Kenyon
This has been a great product for us. Tiger Haven is a sanctuary for Big Cats, and we live in a remote location. There are only a few DSL lines available, and no fiber optics or cables on our road. We have several employees that live on site, and cell service is sketchy at best. With only one place on the property that had WiFi it was a real problem. The Halo extenders have now made it possible for all of us to have internet access on the facility site that has a total of 80 acres. Thank you Halo for a great product!!! – MLH
What a gorgeous piece of hardware! This morning, the only signal any of my devices could see, with my best rig up, was the marina’s wifi. It could not hold the signal long enough to actually bring up a page. There were 1-2 bars of signal strength. Eager to start saving money, and approaching another plan end…I did a temporary install of this Extender and found it very easy to set up on our horizontal Bimini bar. Within 10 minutes, I had 25 signals showing. Now, the marina signal was not just useable, but lightening fast.

Long Range WiFi Extender Features
Long Range WiFi Extender
It’s a common problem: you’re at a marina, truck stop, or camp and while there is free (or cheap) WiFi available, it doesn’t extend past the front door of the office. Setting up the RedPort Long Range WiFi Extender on your boat (or truck, RV, etc) means that you can capture that same WiFi signal – even up to miles away.
Optimizer Local Hub
Once you’ve captured that long range WiFi, what do you do with it? Optimizer takes that WiFi internet connection and rebroadcasts it around your location. That means you can connect to, say, a distant Marina or RV campground WiFi from the comfort of your own boat.
NMEA Compatible
For boats, RedPort Optimizer works as a NMEA repeater to broadcast your NMEA data (GPS location, AIS, weather data) to your navigational software on your smartphones, tablets, or computers.

Recreational Boaters

Fishermen
Whether you are a commercial fishermen or go sport fishing once a month, Halo allows you to quickly and easily connect to available land WiFi when near shore.
M2M (Machine to Machine)
The RedPort Halo system has such a long WiFi range that it is used in remote areas where WiFi may be available at a single hotspot, but not broadcast very far. Halo can capture that signal and rebroadcast it to trucks, teams, combines, oil wells, etc.
RVs
When travelling in remote areas of the world with little or no cell coverage, Halo allows you to connect to distant WiFi accesspoints at rest stops, camps, truck stops, and motels.
Truckers
When you spend your life on the road, you need to be able to sit back and relax in your cab with a good Internet connection. While in remote areas with no cell coverage, Halo allows you to connect to truck-stop WiFi even if you are parked far away.
