It should be placed halfway between your router and your dead Wifi area. In set up it has a spot finder- this helps finding the optimal placement. I run my Wifi off of my family’s next door and it is seamless now. My upstairs had terrible dead zones and now no issues.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, it plugs into the wall. It should be placed somewhat centrally between the main router and where you need the WiFi signal. It has a feature that will indicate whether or not it has a strong signal from the main router. This feature will help you locate it in the best place.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The RE9000 can be configured as a wireless repeater, or as a wired access point. The best method to use would vary depending upon the user's current set-up. So, yes, the RE9000 can utilize an Ethernet connection. Where to locate the access point? In theory, it should be located such that uniform/acceptable Wi-Fi signal strength is maintained throughout.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, the LINKSYS RE9000 MU-MIMO RANGE EXTENDER plugs into the wall for power. You can either place the range extender in a central location or in the room/area you want to have a stronger wifi signal. The directions will instruct you on how to set up your extender to receive the best signal wherever place the LINKSYS RE9000.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have this extender in a bedroom upstairs and my router/modem is downstairs on the opposite side of the house. I'm seeing very little drop off (170 Mbps downstairs, 110 Mbps through this extender upstairs)
