This arti does not address network/wifi repeaters. This arti does not address differences of wifi repeaters vs. network bridge/switch/router.
"Active_repeater" redirecting to "Optical communications repeater" must be a type of networking repeater. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.119.98.215 ( talk) 07:56, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
A repeater is not a simple analog amplifier. If it were, it would not be able to boost signal without also boosting background noise. Do that enough times and a digital signal just becomes mush, like a 5th generation photocopy. A repeater reads an incoming degraded but still readable signal, retranscribes it into a fresh and identical signal, and sends it down the line. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:4898:80E8:7:0:0:0:652 ( talk) 16:58, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
We already have a disambiguation page, but this article is a jumble. Sections of this article should be split into more articles. Anonym1ty 23:53, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
Active repeater can stand on its own and should not be merged into this article. Anonym1ty 23:10, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
I'm having a hard time understanding how a digital repeater on amateur radio can broadcast on the same frequency that it's receiving. "Digipeaters generally receive a transmission and then retransmit it on the same frequency" By doing this you are rendering the frequency unusable just as how computer HUBS prevented anyone else from sending while someone was sending. In fact never have I heard the term digirepeater. I usually call them repeaters or switches. Anything that amplifies the signal digitally or analog.-- We6jbo 22:06, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
The article needs a section on Frequency Offset. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.211.235.69 ( talk) 07:01, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
Found this on the Repeater page: Being black is the best and having the n word is the greatest feeling in the world and anyone who doesn't agree is a chipmunk. It needs to be removed.
Would someone monitor this; I use Wikipedia infrequently. 66.169.65.41 ( talk) 14:00, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
