I have a motorola router and not enough signal for the rooms of the house. I decided to buy the linsys which is a system to expand the signal. The installation was easy but does not yield attributes of expanding the signal. Every 5 minutes the signal is lost and must be re- reset the system. not recommended at all , throw my money on that computer. Not recommended at all .

Great wifi extender. I was having trouble running all my devices without slowing the whole system down. The Linksys extender took care of the problem. I now have plenty of bandwidth to handle all my devices!

Need a wi-fi extender and Best Buy had exactly what I needed. It was easy to set up and it works great. You can always count on Best Buy to be well stocked with products that are needed.

I bought this to extend the range of my router, which wasn't sending signal to my outdoor security cameras. I do think that the range has been extended more, but it is kinda hard to tell. My camera does seem to be working much better, and the electronic devices on that side of the house seem better too. But I feel like this product doesn't penetrate walls as well as a regular router.

Bought this device to help improve the signal in my home. I am experiencing frequent, annoying connection drops that I still have yet to figure out. Also, rather than connecting to my extender, I find my devices still connecting to my main router and having poor signal just feet from the extender. Wish devices were smarter to connect to the strongest signal of the same SSID

I have a Linksys WRT1900 ACS main router but have lots of walls in my house the Extender worked really well on increasing my WIFI signal through out my house. Even get a better signal outside. I do recommend this product. Took my weak signal from 2 bars to 4 to 5 bars of signal strength.
