Not the best thing ever
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Product did not work as well as I expected. It did however work. Easy to install and set up. Price was a little high when considering a dual band router can be purchased for about the same price. It did not give me the extended range that I expected and I returned the product and purchased a higher end product.

Posted .Hi, Culbles,
Repositioning the range extender and using its Spot Finder tool could help in optimizing the wireless coverage. Although you've already returned the product, you can always contact us should you need help with your other Linksys devices at LinksysCares@linksys.com.

Posted .Hi, Arty,
The connection of the range extender to the network could've been interfered in its current location. To isolate this, try relocating it and use the Spot Finder tool on the setup process to know the best position. Please email us at LinksysCares@linksys.com with your phone number and the link to this post for your reference.
