    The worked so easy with the new wireless router to extend the range at the one end of my house. It practically did it itself. You do need to set a password for this if you have your router password protected.

    using to extend signal to back yard. Works great when plugged into exterior outlet. Tried it in the house, but had to move it - since the plug tried was behind an exterior chimney - which blocked the signal.

    Been using this range extender for sometime now and its been working perfectly. I have it plugged in the kitchen to extend the range in the backyard where we hangout most in the summer time. The only thing I've noticed is that sometimes it takes about 2-3 minutes to reconnect to the range extender after coming out in the backyard. Maybe it needs to be rebooted now and again which is what I've been doing every now and then and its a smooth transition now.

    The wi-fi range extender did what I needed it to do. It boosted the wi-fi signal sufficiently to allow my smart tv to access Amazon and Netflix programming without the constant rebuffering I experienced before.

    We bought a new smart tv for the famiky, and we were not getting signal. We put the extender in the kitchen, which is halfway from the family, and it works great. We have not had a problem since.

    I needed to use my 5ghz wireless network because the speed is faster. However, the range of 5ghz frequency was not enough to cover all areas of my home. I bought the linksys wireless network extender to solve the problem. It was very easy to setup and connect to my existing network router. I now have coverage in all areas of my home. I can also easily move it to another electric outlet in my home to boost the signal to the location I am working.

    The reduce price and ease of setup makes this a good deal. Just be aware that the 5Ghz range is not as good as some of the higher cost units. but for the price its does the job

    We bought this device about 2 months ago. It was really easy to set up, it is great because it doesn't take up any room in the house, all good, but the internet is incredibly slow. Not worth the money

    not as smooth as I would like, got it linked once, then couldn't do it again, several tries, troubleshooting read, move it around, and other steps, too many what ifs for me. might work good somewhere else, we have a small area too.

      Hi, latte,

      If your RE6700 Extender is positioned at least 50% from your main Wi-Fi signal, then it should function properly with no issues. Please reach out to us at [email protected] with your contact details and the link to this post. One of our Escalation Engineers will contact you to take a closer look at your network setup.


      Best regards,

      Jay
