    I have a small bar out by my boat dock. I use a Sonos Amp to provide music so needed Internet connectivity. I trenched an underground Ethernet cable to the bar and connected the AC1200 to it as a WiFi Access Point. It works like a charm! My Sonos Amp runs perfectly, and my guests all have great Internet access.

    It does a good job extending my wifi signal but I don't like the fact that it has to be rebooted every once in a while.

      Hi, Emo1,

      The range extender does not need to be rebooted once it's configured. We can try checking if the unit's firmware is updated.

    Well, I really needed to do a review of a product that I have purchased from Best Buy, so that I can get to my next reward certificate. I didn't actually use this and I ended up returning it since the Wi-Fi in my apartment seem to be working all right. It seems to be a good fit though, it's not the kind that just plugs into the wall oh, and it has antennas.

    I bought about a month ago and is functioning according to instructions. It produces a 2G and 5G extender bands. Works great with some older equipment and newer. Easy peasy to plug in and get working as long as instructions are followed (1st hand experience from one that doesn’t usually care about instructions manuals: they’re more like guidelines).

    I bought this to connect my physical work phone to my home's wi-fi. The phone uses VoIP but needs to be connected by an ethernet cable. So I plugged the phone into this Lynksys Wi-Fi extender and VOILA! Everything works just as intended. I recommend this product if your looking to connect any device to your wi-fi by wire.
