    For many wireless repeaters/extenders, setup can be a hassle, even if you're seasoned in technology. This one is NOT a hassle. Simply power it up, find your existing signal, go to the furthest area where you get a middling range from your original router, then plant it there. Boom. Your wi-fi signal is now extended!

    Does a great job picking up existing signal and re-broadcasting to the first story of my house. Speed is good through extended and small size makes easy to blend in to existing environments.

    Setup was easy. Customization was also pretty simple. Performance is excellent, especially with wired devices. However, performance of wireless devices is less than half the speed of wired devices. So, everything's working, but would have given top rating if wireless performance was better.

      Hi, Brad,

      One the possible factors that could've affected the speed is the wireless adapter of the device. To isolate this, connect another wireless device and run a speed test. Get in touch with via [email protected] with your phone number and the link to this post so we can get you to our Support team for further assistance.

    I was having a range issue on the second floor of my house I would some times get connected but even then the signal strength was too weak. So I went to Best Buy to see what they had. After speaking with a store associate I chose this one because it had all the bands and could support my 5 GHZ connection. It was super simple to hook up and has been working reliably for a few weeks now. I now have access to all my devices from the second floor.

    Simple setup. At AC1200, dont expect miracles, but more than adequate to extend coverage to an outside patio. Don't count on heavy gaming on it, but to supply friends with WIFI outdoors during a BBQ, it's perfect.

    Installation from the start was difficult - the blinking light never stopped blinking, even with the fixes indicated online from the support link - restarting the unit, restarting the router, moving closer to the router, etc. I tried calling and was told that the wait was long and that i was 16th in line. Next, I tried the chat support, with excellent results. Ignoring the blinking light, Donna walked me through several different steps, finally with success. The instructions included are FAR too simplistic, but I am happy with the Extender at this point. It has brought my signal in the far ends of my condo from one, maybe two bands to a steady 4. Streaming is now a breeze, with no buffering so far. Thanks, Donna, on chat support!

    Had trouble initially connecting to my net gear router. Took four different tries to finally connect. 2 days later. Had to reconnect a couple of times. Considered taking it back to BB. Decided to give it a chance. Since then no problems. Extended my WiFi signal To patio, garage and to all of drive way. These are the area I wanted to extend my WiFi signal to. After set up problems no problems.
