Works good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The range extender works good but not as good as I thought it would, but that is probably due to my lack of understanding of how it works. You do need an adequate signal for the extender to lock in on for it to properly amplify the signal. Over all I am happy with the purchase.

Easy Setup For Any Age!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Linksys AC Wi-Fi Range Extender configuration setup was easy. Plug in the AC Wi-Fi Range Extender, identify your home network (SSID and PW) and your instantly connected, can't be any easier. I can't speak for the range parameters it extends to since it just installed; but it has helped my signal in areas were there were dead spots.

Great WiFi extender for the average home owner
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Linksys RE6500 Extender Was recommended by a coworker, I didn't try any other device first. I have Verizon Fios router which works well but does not have a strong enough signal for a1500 sq foot home (My Opinion) I installed this last week and have had Zero problems so far. We have both Apple and Windows computers. I set it up on the windows laptop computer easy enough , you do have to hook up the Ethernet cable up from the computer to extender for install, I than used Linksys web page for the final install. I get great signal strength through out the house and back yard. Very happy so far.
