Horrible
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was the worst wifi extender I've ever used, and I've tried many trying to get the best wifi extender I can. The only reason this costs more than the better extenders like any of the netgear ones is because it has a touch screen and looks pretty. It isn't even dual band. Only 2.4ghz and it hardly receives a signal from your router and the signal it puts out is slow. I would recommend the netgear ac750 which works great receives your router signal great and is dual band 2.4 and 5ghz and it also has a feature called fast lane technology which puts bot signals together into one faster signal. The ac1200 is good to puts out a much faster signal than the ac750 and has fast lane tech as well but puts out up to 1200Mbps where the ac750 puts out up to 750Mbps but it depends on how much bandwidth you receive from your provider where you won't get 1200Mbps unless yoyour cable modem is capable. I also found that the ac1200 which costs approx $100 and the ac750 is around $75 but I notice the ac1200 seems a bit harder to catch a good signal but if it does it is a pretty awesome extender it even has a dual core processor in it. But all in all I would never go with amped wireless again. They're pretty with touch screens but suck in performance and cost around $120 and it isn't even dual band. It's garbage for people that aren't computer say and are pulled in by its looks. I really didn't want to give it any stars.

Easy set-up
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worked great for a week, then started dropping the signal. By the end of the second week, touch screen went blank and stopped working completely. Returned to store and bought a linksys, I like it better and it is still working.

Absolutely HORRIBLE
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased first one in store and spent 5+ hours trying to get it connected to wireless router. When I finally got it connected would not connect to wireless security camera. Touch screen display was a totally messed up and when it worked typed random stuff. Exchanged for another one in the store and after 3+ hours wouldn't connect to wireless router. Piece of junk!!!!

Don't buy this product
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this last week in order to extend the range of my wireless router. Simple enough, I've used a Linksys before with satisfactory results, but my previous unit finally died on me. Figured I'd try this unit since it was on sale. Don't. The touchscreen was almost entirely nonfunctional, and when I was finally able to connect it to my network, it didn't work at all. No signal. Got my money back, and will stick with a reputable model going forward. Linksys or Netgear are recommended.

Total fail!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this device 3 months ago, suddenly stop working. I reset it and did all the trouble shootings they recommended. Including a 1 hour call to tech support. Nothing! the Device is not getting the IP address and is not working at all. Is working when I set it next to the main router...100% signal. It was working good but now is just a piece of junk. If you want a extender for 2-3 months go for it. They don't last at all.
