This extender offers pretty good range for Wi-Fi. The range extends all throughout our single story 1400 sq ft home. Wi-Fi has been extended throughout all rooms. Our internet extends several feet around the perimeter of our property. It helps to place the extender in a open area away from walls or any anything else that might alter the extended signal.

We purchased the wireless extender because our Denon receiver wasn't picking up a good signal and our wifi wasn't strong in some parts of the house. Our smart TVs were also losing signal when we watched Amazon Prime. The signal boost helped with the wifi and the Smart TVs but it did not help much with the wireless receiver which is why we bought the product.

Hi, FunTimes,
Your experience with this product is valuable to us. It is good to know you have noticed improvements with the wireless signal. May we know how far is the Denon receiver from the router and from the range extender? Its distance might've defined the signal it is detecting from the extended network. Try positioning the range extender closer to the receiver or to optimize the wireless network, you can adjust the wireless channel of the router. Update us with the results via email at [email protected] and indicate your name, phone number, location, and the link to this post.
Regards,
Linksys Support

We bought his to help get a stronger signal for Xbox One and 360. Xbox One works, but 360 is not compatible.

Wifi works well but LED flashes orange

Was able to finally get a steady wifi signal in a downstairs brick room with this extender. My only gripe is sometimes the Led flashes orange. Would expect wifi connection to break but it hasn't. The extender remains fully functioning. I looked this up and seems to be a bug. Hoping a firmware update will fix it.

Hi Jaime,
The signal obstruction could cause the RE6500 to lose its connection to the network and flash an orange LED. Updating the firmware or relocating the device might help to fix the flashing LED. For further assistance, please email us at [email protected] with your contact details and the link to this post for our reference.

Expands our home internet signal significantly. We have a large home and the Comcast router has limited range, so this equipment is very helpful.

Purchased the extender to help boost the wifi signal upstairs. This extender worked very well and it was super easy to configure. In addition to extending my wifi, my DVR is directly plugged into and I've never had an issue with it.

I have been in a long search for removing specific black holes in my wifi coverage. It appeared that there were several time - space continium issues with my LinkSys AC router. Imagine my join when I found this very easy to setup and suprisingly effective extender. I am now able to move onto greater mysteries, like why we can't get any good Presidental candidates.

The setup was super simple from my iPhone, and after a month, I am still impressed with the signal boost. The range and power is awesome, and most every wireless item links to this extender over the actual router.
Very impressed.
