easy to use
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to link up to my laptop and enter passwords . Excellent set up software
I would recommend this to a friend It’s ok
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works once connected. Will cause inteference with LG Soundbars. When connected as a range extender, the wireless subwoofers onsound bars will go in and out. The ranger extenders definitely cause wireless interference with some devices so do your best to put it in a space where it cannot cause too much inteference. Otherwise the device works and will add range. Took a few minutes to connect, but once it is connected, the connection is stable

Overall not worth what was spent.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After reading reviews I was wary to buy this and for good reason. I gave it a chance and by the time I was able to get to the store I was out of the return policy. The device is relatively easy to set up, but WiFi extenders are never really great options, and this one meets that expectation. WiFi drop outs, slow speeds, it really was not worth it. I’d suggest a different option if at all possible.
