    It does what it is suppose to do it boosts my wifi signal to areas of my house where I never got wifi before. The only issue is that is seems to get hot so I unplug it when I am not in that area of my house.

    I don't need a range extender in my condo, but I have a TV and audio receiver that have network but no wireless, so I use the RJ ports in the back to hook them up to my network and it works wonderfully.

    Once I figured out the setup buttons to push it installed itself and works great. Now the family room tv grabs Netflix with no problem.

    If you need a WiFi extender this is the best way to go. It does what it is supposed to do and more. It will even take your network that you have and just make an extention of that... a must buy

    We have a tri-level home and the instructions said to place the range extender in a mid range place so that the signal could reach all levels. We have tried it in several places in our home and it has not helped the speed of our internet. Disappointing.

    For a decent Wi-Fi router it's good for a gaming router or streaming multiple TVs it's lagging a little but quality is still good
