When two or more hosts ought to be connected with one another over the IEEE 802.11 protocol and the distance is too long for a direct connection to be established, a wireless repeater (also called wireless range extender) is used to bridge the gap. It can be a specialized stand alone computer networking device. Also, some WNICs optionally support operating in such a mode.
