Posted .Hello, Lpm1,
The Linksys RE6500 allows you to repeat the wireless signal of any access point or router to provide Internet connectivity in hard to reach areas. We suggest you plug in the range extender midway between your router and the area without Wi-Fi. Be sure you have at least 50% of your router’s Wi-Fi signal at that point on the device you used. In case you encounter some difficulties with it, please do not hesitate to let us know over email at [email protected] with your contact info and the link of this review (for reference) – so we can have you assisted with our Escalation Engineers.

Posted .Hi, Sirjames41,
Make sure to update the firmware of the extender and place it in an optimum location where it gets at least three WiFi bars from the router. Then, get in touch with us at [email protected] so our Escalation Engineers can help you optimize the device for a better WiFi experience. Don’t forget to include your contact information and a link to this post as our reference.

It improve my internet connection
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It improve the internate connection through out the room.
I would recommend this to a friendNot so great for the Basement
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This may work if you need to use in another room but we bought it to use in our basement and it’s just not working for game playing. Maybe we needed something bigger or just a bigger router...but for us this did not fix our issue. Oh and the antennas don’t stay up??
