Didn't work like I thought it would

Posted .Hi, Vito,
Setting up your Linksys RE6300 is easy with its browser-based setup feature. There’s no need for an installation software or setup CD. Try to reset the extender to its default settings and wait until the light is blinking orange before starting the setup process. Update us then over email then so we can have this checked with our Escalation Engineers. Send along with your contact details and the link of this review, for our reference.

Doesn't extend service.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was 6 feet away from my primary router. The extender stated that I was too far away. I bought a TP Link range extender that works great.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Linksys Staff
Posted .Hi,
The distance you mentioned should be enough for the range extender to connect to your main router. The firmware of the device may have been outdated which cause the challenges that you experienced.
If you still have the device, we can have our Second Level Technicians assist you with further troubleshooting. Just send us your contact details at LinksysCares@lniksys.com along with the link to this post.
We hope to hear from you soon.

Posted .Hi, BArunner,
The RE6300 extender will help to extend your WiFi coverage, however, if the router is not working well, it will greatly impact the performance of the extender as well since it’s just dependent to the main source. Feel free to tap us anytime at LinksysCares@linksys.com should you need assistance with Linksys products. Our Escalation Engineers will be glad to help you out.

- Pros mentioned:Range, Setup
Easy to setup and does the job
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super easy to setup with the WPS button, had it up and running within 5 minutes. Does the job of extending wifi. I can now stay on wifi till the end of my long driveway. Its worth noting that it creates a new wifi connection name - so you'd end up with your original network and then the _ext (extension) one. I received a free sample from Linksys in exchange for my honest feedback.
