Customers are saying

Customers highly value the ability of the High Power Wireless-N 600mW Pro Smart Repeater and Range Extender to extend their WiFi signal. However, some customers found the improvement in signal strength to be less than expected, with reports of the signal dropping or remaining weak at greater distances. The product's performance in strengthening the signal appears inconsistent based on user feedback. Further improvements in signal strength are desired by some users.

    I have a small house but it is old with thick walls and the router is in the basement with the office on the first floor. We had unreliable connection with multiple devices throughout the house and this product was recommended to extend and strengthen the signal. It does as it promised however it does not strengthen the signal as much as I had hoped based on the recommendation. It may be that I am out of luck no matter what I choose based on the location of my router. The only other option would have been to relocate the router upstairs but that would have required cutting through walls, etc. It was fairly straightforward to install -- even for me -- an admitted IT idiot!

    I was very excited when I first found this equipment. However, that didn't last long. This extender says it will pick up signals from any wife and extend the range of the signal it can pickup. I had it setup roughly 320 ft from the Router. At first it read an 81% of signal strength. The instructions say it works when the strength is better than 70%. Initially it did, for a few hours, then nothing. I tried extending the antenna pole higher and again it worked initially, then it dropped. When I called Tevh Support, I was told that to make it work I needed to purchase an AP for the Signal end. I told the Tech that I as reading a higher than needed signal strength, but all he was willing to talk about was adding the AP to make it work. I returned it today. The old saying about throwing good money after bad seems to fit this.

      Hello,
      We apologize for the confusion on the functionality of the SR600EX unit. If you read our website there is a disclaimer that states that for long range connections this unit needs to be used in conjunction with another high power device. 320 ft.is too far for any standard router or WIFI unit to work by itself. Also, this units are highly directional and require line-of-sight to the source and if you had your router inside and the SR600EX outside the walls are creating interference. Again we apologize for the confusion and inconvenience and please feel free to call our 888-573-8830 line for any questions concerning the functionality of any of our products.

    Did not improve wifi signal strength, still weak at 100 yards away. Did not live up to the mile + claim. Looking at trying something else

      magic0309,
      We are sorry if the unit did not perform to your expectations. If you look on our website you can see a disclaimer that states that in order to achieve the 1.5 mile range the Pro Series units need to be used in pairs. Otherwise you are limited to the WIFI capabilities of the WIFI card of your device which is not more than 150-200 feet. Please feel free to call our tech support line at 888-573-8820 for any questions or concerns regarding the Pro Series units.

    I bought this unit to attched 2 home networks together so I can eliminate one of my bills in my house hold. The range on this unit is fantastic. The only complaint I have is that the unit claims to be Wireless N capable of 150mbps. Tpo speed standing right in front of unit just inches away top speed 64mbps. Setup is extremely easy as well.

    I was worried about the price of the product and it not being able to get the job done, but it works incredibly. I just moved into my father's house and he is too far away from the street to get cable, but his neighbor, about 200 feet away, is fine. They said I could use there network and this repeater is incredible. My speeds match their speeds and it covers my dad's whole house. Great product, buy with confidence.
