    Set up was incredibly easy and quick. Ran into no issues and was up and running within 20 minutes. Sound quality is much better as compared to relying on my TV speakers. Our TV room sits next to our furnace. My TV is no longer drowned out when the furnace kicks on.

    This extender allowed my printer in basement to always be in range. I don't have to check anymore to make sure my printer is printing. It is out of the way and the wall socket on the extender allows use of both duplex receptacles even when plugged in.

    I have a home office over my detached garage and the main house router is in the middle of the house about 150 ft away. After installing the Linksys AC1200 in my office the data upload and download speed increased significantly! Works as advertised!

    Loved this when I first installed it. Able to get my full 100mbps speed though cable connection to extender. But after 60 days, the connection to the Internet began dropping out if I went away for a while, and the laptop went to sleep. Then unless I rebooted the laptop and reset the extender, the extender kept me from getting online until I removed cable and connected via wifi directly to router. Returned first unit after spending 2.5 hours online with Linksys support. Second unit received, and the same problems have developed. I think there may be a solution, but life is too short to have to go online to tech support repeated times just to find out how to set an extender. I'm retiring this device to the closet, and then to the trash. Unless you want to spend way too much time babysitting a seemingly passive device, I would leave this one in the store. Great when it works, but too finicky to keep operating.

      Hi, Rick,

      It's odd that the replacement is experiencing the same issue. Let's ensure that the range extender is running on the latest firmware version.

      We would like to take this chance to have the unit checked further by our Escalation Engineers. Our team is eager to work with you and help you get it to work as expected. Please email us your case number or contact information at [email protected] so we can get you over to them. Indicate the link to this review for our reference.

    This does increase my coverage slightly in our house but I expected it to cover more area.

      Hi, ORRN,

      The RE6700 can extend the range of your wireless router up to 10,000 square feet. In order to get the unit's expected coverage, it would help if you check if it is getting at least 50% of your router’s Wi-Fi signal and is located midway between your router and the area without Wi-Fi.

      Please email us your contact details at [email protected] so that our Escalation Engineers can help you optimize its settings. Indicate the link to this review for our reference.

      Hi, Jeremyray15,

      Interference in your area and the placement of the range extender are a few of the factors that could affect the unit's wireless performance. We can utilize the Spot Finder feature of the product to ensure that it's in its right location

      Please email us your contact information at [email protected] so that our Escalation Engineers can further help you achieve its full potential. Indicate the link to this review for our reference.

    This is an improvement over the cheaper one we purchased a couple years earlier. That one still could not reach all areas of the house. This Linksys was just what we needed. It should suit our needs for at least another 5 years.

      Hi, MrsG,

      The placement of your range extender plays an important factor in its overall wireless performance. We suggest that you place the unit where it is getting at least 50% of your router’s Wi-Fi signal and is located midway between your router and the area without Wi-Fi.

      Our Escalation Engineers would like to further check your network environment and help you achieve the product's full potential. Please email us your contact information at [email protected] so that they can get in touch with you as soon as possible. Indicate the link to this review for our reference.
