ROUTER FOR INTERNET
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.THE ROUTER SEEMS TO BE HELPING OUR INTERNET SERVICE SPEED UP A LITTLE BUT IT HAS HELPED WITH GETTING BETTER QUALITY ON SECOND FLOOR AND BASEMENT WHICH IS WHAT IT IS INTENDED TO DO. GEEK SQUAD WAS GREAT FOR INSTALLING IT AND MAKING SURE ALL DEVICES WERE COMPATIBLE AND WORKING WELL.

Delivers the mail!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was not able to get the best coverage through my home which includes a full basement and a 2nd level. The wi-fi extender made it possible to have full consistent service throughout my home.
I would recommend this to a friend good extender, fairly easy setup
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.this was recommended by the second salesperson I spoke to, the first had no idea what a WI-FI extender was. Happy with the function at my marina on my boat, so I just bought a second one for the house. I would give it 5 if I hadn't had issues setting up the first one, direction wasn't really clear on a few things for someone that is not overly tech savvy..
I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Connection
Good value and price
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was having weak and unstable connection issues. It was making it hard for me to join the zoom classes. Since I bought this extender I don't have any of those issues

Extends wi fi to hard to reach areas of house
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased 2 items for different homes to extend wifi beyond normal range
I would recommend this to a friendNo more dead zones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great piece of hardware! No more issues with connectivity and buffering.
I would recommend this to a friendGood… but.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works… kinda. The problem isn’t with the unit, but rather with the concept. I should’ve listen to the tech in the store and put together a whole new wifi network with better coverage. The problem with expanding coverage by putting a range extender on is that it causes significant interference on the network. Things got so bad I just had to unplug this unit and go a different way with the whole project. In the end, if you’re trying to extend your wifi coverage, just buy a complete system with multiple nodes already included (it’s only about $100 more).
