    I was having issues with all wireless devices in my home until we bought this gen. It works wonderfully with Apple and PC based produced. We run both in our house and there is no problem with connecting or continuous use.

    We have a large house and I needed to be able to have internet all through the house and it works perfectly. I just plugged it in, did a little online configuration with my phone and we now have internet all through the house.

    Works perfect great speed from an otherwise dead spot only problem is its setup as a seperate wifi network and you normally have to manually connect when in that part of the house. Maybe you can set this up differently though.

    if I could give this product a ration of 0 I would... thought my Wi-Fi needed a boost due to poor performance, spoke with sales associate told him my apartment size and layout and which cable modem and router I had and he recommended this product. It worked great for about 1.5 months then started it dropping the connection, I would reset the connection and it would last about 2 hours then drop again, etc.... Went back to store spoke with a different associate and he told me I should have never bought this item as it wasn't right for my problem, instead my problem was that my router was "ancient" bought a new router on his recommendation and it solved all my issues

      Hi, badgixxer,

      We're glad to hear that purchasing a new router solved your Wi-Fi issues. As for the RE6700 Wireless Extender, it should be compatible with any Wireless Routers. To fully maximize its potential, it is recommended to take advantage of its Spot Finder Technology feature to guide you where to position the extender to achieve an optimal wireless range. For your questions and clarifications, don't hesitate to email us at [email protected], anytime.

    We needed an extender for our basement floor apartment. It has really improved our overall service within our home especially since our main router is on the 2nd floor. I high recommend this product.

    Before buying this product I kept losing my wi-fi connection to my smart TV. Now I have not lost one program and the buffering is minimal at start up. I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a wi-fi extender.

    This range extender is simple and powerful. I ran an Ethernet cable through the basement to my porch for this range extender, and have thus extended our WiFi to the entire backyard and garage. Easy.

    I have a iPad Air 2 and was having some connectivity issues on the second floor of our house. I got this unit because of the AC and it seems to have solved my problem. I also bought a Linksys AC1900 Router as well.

      Hi, Sparky,

      Adding this range extender to your network should help you improve your connection with the router. It could help to optimize the signal if you'll relocate the extender and use the Spot Finder tool on the setup process to find the best location. If you wish to have someone walk you through the process, we can have our Escalation Engineers contact you. Do not hesitate to email us with your phone number and the link to this post so we can properly endorse you to the team.

    This item may well have solved my problem, but I was unable to complete the setup process. Poor setup instructions. I returned it and purchased an "orbi" system, at much greater expense, but am pleased that it was easy to install, came with good instructions and is performing very well.

      Hi Jmldbttr

      Your setup experience is clearly not what we wanted you to have since it is designed to be easy. We understand that you’ve already returned the extender. However, if you have any Linksys products in the future, we're here to help if you need assistance. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at [email protected] anytime.
