Buy a Blitzz wireless router

When it comes to routers, Blitzz is what you absolutely have to have. Perhaps you already have the drivers, the documentation and several Blitzz routers set up, and want to make things easy on yourself by dealing with a familiar face. The good news is that they are still available in limited quantities.

I recommend: Xiertek USA is one of the few Blitzz access point router vendors left with product to sell. They offer free shipping on qualifying orders, or you could visit Vulnerability Scanning for an example of a Blitzz wired router still in the box.

So you have one of those hard-to-find Blitzz routers. Because finding support for it is going to be anywhere from very difficult to impossible, you need to get all your ducks in a row, just in case.

I recommend: The Fixya warranty manager lets you store all your warranty and support information in one place. This is a useful tool for more than just your Blitzz products; you can gather information for all your electronic or warrantied goods together in one place. The Fixya website also offers an archive of technical support question-answer pages for Blitzz technology.

Accessorize your Blitzz access point routers

Just because the company is gone doesn't mean you should stop enjoying the services of your Blitzz routers. You can even up their performance by finding the right Blitzz-compatible accessories.

I recommend: Try Wireless Garden for the Cantenna range-extending, freeloader-spotting, access point-identifying gadget. If you want something a little less 007 and a little more practical, surf on over to Brickhouse Security for a simple wireless range extender.
