It was easy to set up.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was easy to set up and works for my purposes. I would not recommend it if your house was extremely large. Was disappointed I could not set it up as far away from my router as I would have liked. The range is very limited.

Works awesome
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Added this to my network so my kids had better coverage on the their side of the house and it did more than expected. We are able to use it in place outside our home that we didn't expect.
I would recommend this to a friend Requires factory reset & setup to work after 2 day
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.setup is easy. Range extender will work great for 2 days, then it will loose comm with router. since I am using same SSID as router, the signal on extender which is stronger will not allow to connect to internet. Require reset extenter and setup again to work for a couple of days.

Posted .Hi, mango3942,
Relocating may help stabilize the connection between the router and the extender, as well as setting a fixed wireless channel to avoid interference. Let us know the results at [email protected], and our Escalation Engineers will be more than glad to assist you further. Once you email, kindly include the link to this post and your contact details.
