WiFi Performance is OK - Ethernet port is slow
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If all you need is a small WiFi extender, then this works well, but if you need the ethernet port which I did, then the performance is slow. I went with another extender instead. The Netgear-AC1200 EX6200. The price was the same on sale and has a 5 port switch included.

Posted .Hi, Hoyodeman,
The speed and performance of the wired and wireless connections through this range extender is expected to be the same. However, there could be factors that affected the speed through the wired connection. We understand that you have already returned the product but if you'll need assistance with your other Linksys devices, please email us at [email protected].

Extra Range!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.True to it's name, the wifi reception in my house has improved dramatically across two stories and ain the basement. No more deadspots and can now connect wireless devices in the basement. In addition with the extender I have more open connections for additional devices, like my work laptop with improved performance.

Easy-peasy installation
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I live in a 3400 SF two story house. The router is upstairs in the den over the garage. When in the kitchen, screened porch or deck which is on the opposite side of the house on the ground floor. Had very spotty reception on phone and tablet, as well as laptop. Bought this after researching the products like it. Following the instructions for setting it up, just plugged it in near the router, pushed the WPS button, waited for the light to turn green, then took it downstairs and found the best location for it. Plugged it in, and WOW, got signal like never before. Love it! Highly recommended is you need to extend your signal for your wi fi

Works ok...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have a large house and we purchased to enhance the connectivity down the hall to the kids room. Sometimes the unit works well, other times we have to reboot it so that devices (usually iPhones or iPads) can find it. Set up is relatively easy.

Posted .Hi, AndyMan,
The connection could've been affected by interference. To isolate this, relocate the range extender and use of the Spot Finder tool on the setup process to help you find the best spot. Aside from that, make sure that its firmware is updated. Please email us at [email protected] with your phone number and the link to this post so that our Escalation Engineers can assist you in optimizing the performance of the device.

Worked great!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We moved into a new home and were having trouble getting our WIFI to work throughout our ranch (1800 sq ft) and finished basement (1200 sq ft). Moving our router from where Charter installed it and adding this extender did the trick, we get wifi in some areas of our yard as well (0.7 acre lot).

Good but not a great improvement
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this item to solve some of the complains my wife had on loss of signal. After installing this item I notice a marginal improvement but not the great improvement I was expecting.

Posted .Hi TechExplorer,
We appreciate the time you spent in sharing your feedback on the Linksys RE6700. Adjusting the router's wireless settings could help improve the overall wireless signal which, in turn, will also improve the extended wireless signal. We also advise that you place the extender halfway between the router and the remote wireless devices, and minimize physical obstruction by relocating the devices. Let us know if you need a hand with your network. You can reach us at [email protected] anytime.

Super simple to setup
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a wifi extender, went to Bestbuy, compared it to others on the shelf and this seemed right. The integrated outlet is very practical, and most importantly it was very easy to setup. Also if you unplug it and move it to other places it will automatically reconnect to your wifi network.

Just what was needed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed an extender for my Wi-Fi since the router is located downstairs in the office and the PlayStation is upstairs, the signal wasn't as good for gaming as I needed. This works for what we needed. It was easy to set up and is convenient and moveable so we could move it from room to room as needed.

Great wifi booster
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This wifi booster was very economical and very easy to connect to my router. Then I just moved it closer to the wifi weak area in my house and no more dead spot.

Works better than expected
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a 2800 sqft ranch and the wireless modem/router from spectrum wouldnt provide wifi to the whole house. I read the reviews and thought I would give it a try and just return it if it didn’t work. Simple setup even with my ADD/ADHD it only took me about 5-10 minutes to hookup and works perfectly. I plugged it in in the center of my home. Now I have full WiFi service throughout my home and yard. Definitely recommend this product. Especially if you want a product that’s easy to setup, strengthen and extend your WiFi without having too take up a ton of space or table.

It did the job.........
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was having trouble with the WiFi connection as my router was approximately 30 feet away and around a corner from my room where I keep my laptop. After easily installing the Linksys AC1200 WiFi extender, my connection was terrific. Highly reccommend.

Internet extender
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a pretty large house and this extender has been able to provide a very good signal to a part of the house we have not been able to go wireless. Only draw back to signal is during peak evening hours, but not sure if any system will help during that time. Great buy for the money.
