Great wifi booster, great value!
||Posted .I set this up on my back deck. It was very easy to set up by using the link provided in the setup instructions. I installed the booster about 18' from my router. I am able to pick up a usable signal in my underground storm shelter located about 50' from the booster. My back deck is covered and I added to the weatherproofing of the booster by installing it inside one of those clear plastic outlet covers for wet locations. I knotched out a hole on each side of the cover to accommodate the booster antennae. (pic attached) This booster works great and is a great value. Highly recommended.

Extended to back room
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.I've lived in my appartment for years and have had trouble keeping a wifi signal in my bedroom the whole time. This was so easy to set up and works great as a wifi extender. I dont think its sped up the internet but I didnt get it for that reason so it doesn't matter. Now my tech runs as smoothly and quickly in the back room as it does next to the router. My wifi would always kick me off the network and I have had no problems since installing the extender. Wish I would have bought this years ago. I haven't had any trouble with it in the month I've been using it.

Wi-Fi All Over!
||Posted .I recently had my modem relocated from the ground floor to the basement. This resulted in wi-fi being available in just half the house, nothing in the LR, K, DR. This wi-fi extender, a very reasonable solution, was recommended by the sales person. If it didn't work he suggested the next step would be to consider buying a better modem than what the cable co provides. I installed the wi-fi extender in a central location where there was a good strong signal, simply right into a power strip (no other option at this time), and it works like a charm! Now I have "Wi-Fi All Over" the house again.

Works OK
||Posted .Bought this to extend range into basement for older laptop. It works, but you need to link to the extender separately (home router.ext). Although the signal is 5 bars, and all lights are green, the download speed is about half than when the laptop is near the main router. Still works for the basic Internet stuff. 4 stars because of lower speed and extra connection.

Boosted signal for on-line gaming in dead zone
||Posted .My son was having difficulty playing games on his PS4 even though our internet connection is approx 60 Mbps. Checked it out and found the wing of the house where the PS4 is located is a dead zone (photo 1). After checking reviews I selected the N300. I installed it at the end of the hall that leads to the room with the unit. (photo 2) Problem solved. Installation and setup were reasonably easy. In addition, To help you find the best location for your extender Netgear has a free signal strength app you can download for iPhones or Android devices. (Netgear WiFi Analytics).

Life changer
||Posted .Bought this because I could not watch my favorite shows online in our bedroom because the wifi kept kicking me off the network. Not sure why, our walls are probably too thick. But after installing this small device I have all bars and a strong connection in my bedroom and anywhere in my home. A life changer. Not too obtrusive, either.

Perfect for WFH
||Posted .Our router is in the basement and my at home set up that doesn’t have WiFi capability is on the second floor. This is perfect to have plugged in under my desk with the Ethernet cable right in it. This took about 5 minutes to set up and has been working perfectly for about 4 weeks now.

Works great
||Posted .I bought this for my home. We have a large house and a guest home 25' from the main house. I receive a good 54 transmission rate signal but the guest house gets anywhere from 36 - 48 steady, occasionally I'll get 54 with the extender. I would like to see a green light rather than an amber while using the extender. Green means excellent. For the money it's a great extender.

Q: Questionwhere should i put the device next to my router or the opposite side of the house
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer The device setup next to your router is redundant and pointless. Your main router is already there. You want the extension, so yes, plug in after setup any room in center of the home or opposite side of the house. Try different outlets until you get the desired results. You will! This device is phenomenal. Works all day long with same signal strength strength presently supplied from your ISP provider. Hope that helps! God Bless Woody

Q: Questionis this a different wifi network or does it just increase the signal strength?Will you be able to hook up your devises to the current wifi network or will you have to select the wifi booster as the wifi network? Will this create another wifi network?
Asked by Greg A.
- A:Answer It extends your exiting network, but it also creates an EXT SSID name as well.

Q: QuestionWhat is the difference between this Netgear Universal Wi-Fi range extender and the Netgear AC750 Wi-Fi extender?What is the difference between this Netgear Universal Wi-Fi range extender and the Netgear AC750 Wi-Fi extender?
Asked by PAL.
- A:Answer There are quite a few. The AC750 uses a different wireless standard then the Universal one (802.11ac vs 802.11n). Also, the AC750 has dual band 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz, while the Universal only uses 2.4. For the average home user the AC750 is overkill as most computers coming from Dell, Toshiba and other big box suppliers aren't coming equipped with networking cards that support the extra speed and range of wireless 802.11ac. I'd go with the Universal if you are an average home user. If you are above average there are other dual band range extenders that may be cheaper or the same price that isn't using the 802.11ac standard. Likewise, if you are a power user, on the cutting edge of technology and know that your card is capable of 802.11ac and would like the new technology, then the 750 is great! Any questions about wireless standards can be found by searching about it on Google or Wikipedia.

Q: QuestionDoes this device also increase the internet speed?We have a Netgear router hooked into our PC, but have slow internet service through our provider. We now have a Smart TV upstairs away from the router, and wonder if we will need this device to increase signal and also help with speed? We also use IPads, phones and laptops. And would I place the extender upstairs near the TV?
Asked by Sun4knif.
- A:Answer Your speed is determined by your plan through your ISP provider. It will not increase speed therefore, but will increase the signal from your main router anywhere in your home. You can simply plug it in anywhere and if you have more rooms than we had, buy a second or a third. For the price, it's unmatched and works like a champ 100% reliable. Hope this helped as well.

Q: QuestionSupport more than one extender?We've used this for upstairs signal weakness but I would also like to have one on the interior wall closest to the back yard. Can more than one extender be paired? I'm guessing yes but would like to know for sure before purchasing. Thanks!
Asked by Vince.
- A:Answer Yes and hope you can see my other posts as well. Pairing not an issue. They all work the same way. Just a quick setup next to your router and the device picks up all necessary info and then just go plug it in any outlet, anywhere. Hope this helped! Best 49 bucks I've ever spent to solve similar problem. Regards, God Bless Woody

Q: QuestionDo you need to run a CAT5 Ethernet cable between the router and the Wi-Fi extender? What is the max distance the Wi-Fi extender can be away from the router?
Asked by Nickolai.
- A:Answer Ethernet cable not necessary unless you desire a direct connect. Back bedroom is router, 1000 ft. away is this device. I now have wifi in garage and backyard.

Q: Questioncompatibilitywill this work well with my Roku which is on top floor of house,and router is on bottom?I,m trying for a good streaming option for my Roku...thank you
Asked by dellpat.
- A:Answer This device worked well to extend signal inside a metal walled office, (with door open), where signal had been poor, or none. I was quite pleased to note that this Netgear device worked with two laptops running Linux Mint operating systems, which i switched to recently. No configuration necessary to run in Linux.
