No bueno
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Save yourself the trouble and skip this. This product didn’t really help to increase my Wi-Fi range much if at all. Set up was easy enough but signal strength was very weak.

Posted .Hi,
The best area to place the extender is between the router and the area that you want to cover, just as long as it still gets an optimum connection. Updating the firmware will also help to improve its overall performance. If not, let’s have our Escalation Engineers check your current setup so they can give you recommendations to maximize the device. Just email us at LinksysCares@linksys.com along with a link to this review for easy reference.

Posted .Hi,
Proper placement of the extender makes a huge difference. Try placing it in between the router and the area with dead zones, but make sure that it still gets at least 3 WiFi bars from the router. Making sure that the firmware is updated might also help. Feel free to tap us at LinksysCares@linksys.com for further assistance. Our Escalation Engineers would be happy to lend you a hand. Just include your contact information and a link to this review as our reference.

Linksys AC 750 Range Extender
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently received the AC 750 range extender free of charge from Linksys to test as a consumer. I found this device to be very easy to set up and install on my wi fi network. The added range to my current wi fi network was very noticeable as well as the speed of my connection and the ability of my web browser to load pages. I currently have 8 devices on my network which uses a Cisco Valet 20 router! I would recommend this product to those who are looking to improve their overall wi fi network experience.

||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was hard to get it to connect to my wifi...and when it did, only 1 of my security cameras would connect to it. Signal was weak and I did not see any boost in wifi range. Not happy at all.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this item for the buffering, did not work. I had a tech actually tell me these do nothing for buffering, they actually make it worst. Food for thought walls, mirrors and glass interfere with internet.

The Linksys RE6300 extends the range of your wireless router up to 6,500 sq ft and, it features Crossband Technology that maximizes the simultaneous use of both bands (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) for high-speed data transfer.

Range is good but resetting daily gets old
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not sure if it doesn't work with the LAN option or if Linksys considers that "a wireless wire." But I get to reset this daily. And have to re-sync it to my router. Then it works flawless till the next day.

Posted .Hi audioph00l,
Once the range extender is configured, it should provide a stable Wi-Fi connection to your devices. Just make sure that it is not too far from the main router since it does require a decent Wi-Fi connection.
We can have our Second Level Technicians assist you further with the device. Just send us your contact details at [email protected] so that we can escalate your case. Don't forget to include the link to this post as a reference.
We hope to hear from you soon.

Could not get to work
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unfortunately, I was unable to get the range extender to work after several attempts. The live chat with Geek Squad offered little help and the only option was a visit to my home for a fee of $100!!

||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As I am not tech savvy, and I have no patience I was unable to setup this extender. No guide or assistance. It sounded so easy, just a few steps and off you go, well not I.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It does not work !! It did nothing for me and now it sits on my dresser collecting dust.the salesman told me this was the second best and he said it will do what I need it to do
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot worth it
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the extender for a concrete home that is less then 1000 square feet and it obviously made no difference in boosting our WiFi connection. It was an absolute waste of time and money.

No, I would not recommend this to a friendSo so
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I realize I bought a low end extender, but I thought it would at least set up per the instructions. Nope. Had to spend way too much time and the steps were confusing. Doesn’t seem to really extend the WiFi. Sad to waste $50 on this.

Posted .Hi, SoCalMomCarlsbad,
If you haven't tried taking advantage of the Spot Finder Technology feature of your RE6300 Extender, we recommend doing so as the location where you plugged in the device would greatly impact the Wi-Fi range that it can provide. Should you need a hand, feel free to email us at LinksysCares@linksys.com so we can have one of our Escalation Engineers get in touch with you. Indicate your contact details and the link to this post for easy reference.

A Great Addition to My Home!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been using an older router as a wireless bridge for a couple of years now. When Linksys offered to let me try the Linksys RE6300 AC750 BOOST Wi-Fi Range Extender as part of the Linksys Friends and Family program, I jumped on it. Note: This was a free sample from the Linksys Friends and Family program, which Linksys sent me for my honest feedback. Setting up the Linksys RE6300 AC750 BOOST Wi-Fi Range Extender is a breeze. You have two choices. Either use WPS or Browser based setup. Both are easy. It really depends how lazy you are. With WPS, I would have to climb stairs to push the WPS button on my router. With Browser based, I wouldn't even have to leave my desk. I went with the latter. The quick start guide walks you right though it. Now for performance. I have an older laptop with a wireless N card that likes to fail at the worst times. However, it worked well with the Linksys RE6300 AC750 BOOST Wi-Fi Range Extender. I didn't see any drop in speeds or connectivity. The best thing about this Wi-Fi Range Extender is the inclusion of the ethernet jack. Since my wireless card in my laptop likes to fail, I decide to use the ethernet jack. Performance has been flawless. I have never lost a connection. It is always there and ready to go when I start my laptop. Since the Linksys RE6300 AC750 BOOST Wi-Fi Range Extender connects in both AC and N modes, was able to connect to my router in AC mode. Throughput through the ethernet jack has actually improved my speeds. There are not many things to tweak in the menu of Linksys RE6300 AC750 BOOST Wi-Fi Range Extender. It performs great the way it is. I find the easiest way to connect to it after setup is through windows explorer. Double click on it when you find it and it will open a web page to the menu...piece of cake! All in all, the Linksys RE6300 AC750 BOOST Wi-Fi Range Extender is a great addition to my home!
