    It works when you are sitting right under it but if you move to far the signal is gone. Definitely doesn't work from inside the house to the back yard or even the end of the deck which is like 20' away.

Please get in touch with us at [email protected] and we'll have one of our Escalation Engineers walk you through the process.

    I followed the instructions, watched videos everything I could to get this to work. It never did. The indicator light never got to green status. This took a lot of trial and error to make sure I wasn’t doing something wrong, the testing took time. Then I had the joy of returning it to Best Buy one day after the deadline of 15 days. I have to complain about that return policy too. A bit too brief Best Buy. I’m avoiding products from China going forward.

      Hi, FoxyFox,

      Try relocating the extender away from potential wireless interferences and physical obstructions that may block the signal. Make sure that it is running on the latest firmware too, then, get in touch with us at LinksysCares@linksys.com with your contact information and a link to this review as our reference so we can have our Escalation Engineers help you check what caused the challenge.

      Hi, Mloap,

      Physical obstruction and frequency interference from other Wi-Fi devices are just one of the causes why we encounter slow internet speed. You may try relocating the Linksys RE6300 or change wireless channels and observe if the same issue appears. Send us an email then at [email protected] with your contact info and the link of this review for our reference – so we can have you assisted by our Escalation Engineers.

      Hi, Shawn,

      The Linksys RE6300 WiFi Extender can extend your Wi-Fi coverage up to 6,500 Sq. Ft. You may try to relocate the extender to a different power socket to eliminate dead zones.

    It does not work. I was in the same room with my router, had a laptop, a desk top and 2 smart phones connected via WIFI to router, this unit would not see my network at all, neither 2.4 nor 5 Ghz showed up. It picked up the one across the street, but not mine. I rebooted router, changed band width, etc. no change, not worth a dime.

      Hi, Matt,

      Thanks for the review. This shouldn't be the case as long as it gets a stable connection from the router/gateway, it's in a strategic location (in between the source and the device that is out of range), and has the latest firmware. Moreover, our 2nd Level Team wants to know more about what happened. Please email us at LinksysCares@linksys.com with the link to this review and your contact details.

      Hi,

      Thank you for the feedback. A wireless range extender captures and re-broadcasts the existing WiFi signal from your wireless router. It is critical that the WiFi signal is stable, that the extender is running the most recent firmware, that it has been successfully configured, and that it is located correctly (in between the router and the devices that you want to connect).

      Furthermore, our 2nd Level Team would like to investigate your feedback. Please email LinksysCares@linksys.com with the link to your review and other relevant information for our reference.

      Regards,

      Hi, Justme,

      To fully maximize your RE6300 Extender's potential, it is recommended to place it 50% from your router's signal or midway between your router and the area without Wi-Fi. We suggest taking advantage of its Spot Finder Technology Feature to guide you where to position the extender for an optimal range. If it doesn't help, email us the details at [email protected] with your contact information and the link to this review. We have our Escalation Engineers always ready to lend a hand.

    RE6300 is easy to setup/use! Only took 15 minutes!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I received a free sample of Linksys AC750 Boost Wi-Fi Range Extender (RE6300) in exchange for my honest feedback. Box was packaged well. Unpacked from box and plugged in close to my Linksys EA6900 Router Did Wi-Fi Protected Setup with my Linksys EA6900 Router. - Pushed button on RE6300 - Pushed button on screen of Linksys Smart Wi-Fi utility’s Wi-Fi Protected Setup tab (located under the Wireless menu). After about 30 seconds, this setup the 2.4Ghz extended network automatically. Did it again (same Wi-Fi Protected Setup)… and after about 30 seconds, this setup the 5Ghz extended network automatically. Placement of device is KEY to success. We have a big house with 3 levels so I had to unplug and move the device 4 times until I got a good connection on Spot Finder (in the green). My final location was plugged into “an out of the way” outlet in the middle of the stairs behind a plant. I chose this because it was almost in the exact middle of the house and it would not easily be kicked or knocked out of the wall when walking by it. The signal can also make it downstairs to the bottom level and garage/driveway. I followed the instructions to get to the RE6300 setup. Once there, I named the SSID the same as the main Linksys router (select the option “Make same as router settings” – you need to do this for both 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks) and while it is harder to change the configuration once you do this, I found it the best choice for ease of use by my family and friends. I would recommend this setup option to anyone else setting up an RE6300. I plan on just setting this device up once and forgetting about it so this should only be a one-time consideration. In the RE6300 setup, I also renamed the Admin password on the RE6300 to a safer password (not the default “admin”) that matched my EA6900 router (easier for me to use the same for both). I tried the extended 2.4G and 5G networks on the main level and found substantial improvement and now I can get wireless in the garage and further into the yard. My family (not fully aware of this new device) is now calling me a hero because they always complained about a bad signal on the main level of the house and now have a great signal. The RE6300 also helps save us money on our cellular bill because our iPhones no longer have to borrow data from our plan due to weak signals. The RE6300 is a great product that is easy to setup and use. It only took me 15 minutes to setup and put in the final spot. It also arrived when we needed a better solution. We love it and would definitely recommend to our family and friends.
