I recently purchased a Hawkiing Broadband Booster, which has StreamEngine (QoS), from Newegg.com to use with my router. For the last couple of days, I’ve been trying to login to its administrative page at 192.168.229.61 without success. While it works out of the box, its firmware needed to be upgraded as its “Automatic Upstream Detection” is faulty. Continue reading ‘Hawking Broadband Booster (HBB1)’ »
