No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot compatible
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Thought I would just plug in and be good. NOT. Don't have cordless computer, so had to plug into computer to download information for it to work. Spent more than 2 hours on phone with tech from manufacturer. In the end, it never worked and was packaged back up and returned. According to ATT Uverse, I needed to buy one of the same thru them. I opted out after talking to someone that said this "extenders" Don't really help much.

Posted .Hi, Callie,
The Linksys RE6300 Range Extender works with any modem or gateway and should be easy to set up. You can try to use a different computer or mobile device for the setup, and relocate the extender closer to the router for isolation. Allow us to assist you further, you can reach out to us at LinksysCares@linksys.com, and share more details with the link to this review for our reference.

Posted .Hi, VetBrian,
Thanks for sharing your feedback. The behavior that you're experiencing from your range extender is very uncommon. Let's get this fixed. Have you created a separate network name SSID for your wireless extender? How far is your Linksys repeater from your main Wi-Fi router? To resolve this issue, we recommend to reset and reconfigure your wireless extender. We would also suggest to make sure that your unit is running on the latest firmware version to provide stability on your internet connection. For an optimal wireless coverage, it is recommended that your range extender 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.
Should you need further assistance, reach out to us at LinksysCares@linksys.com along with your contact information and the link to this review for reference.
We'd be happy to lend a hand.

Posted .Hi, Chelly,
The Linksys RE6300 WiFi Extender expands your WiFi coverage up to 6,500 square feet but, performance can be affected by the distance from the access point, the volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and wireless interference. You can try to relocate the extender and update the firmware version to see if that will make any difference.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I found it very frustrating to set up and find that perfect spot. It just didn't work. Took back to Best Buy for a refund.

Posted .Hi, Wilkersl,
Setting up the Linksys range extender and finding the right spot should have been easy using the spot finder technology during set up. However, we understand your decision. We could have made sure that the extender is receiving a strong signal from the router's Wi-Fi during set up.

Posted .Hi, HawaiianByron,
The performance of the range extender would depend on its location and the type of router that you're using. Ensure that the unit 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 get in touch with us at [email protected] so we can get you over to our Escalation Engineers. They'll check your network environment and help you achieve the product's expected performance. Indicate your contact information and the link to this review for our reference.
