Posted .Hello, Shopbb,
Yes, the connection might not penetrate on obstructions such as thick walls. You may try relocating it instead on area that has less interference/obstructions by using the spot finder technology upon placing the extender as it helps you determines the signal strength between your range extender and your router. Revert us back via email at LinksysCares@linksys.com with your contact info so we can also have you assisted further by our Escalation Engineers. You may send the link of this review too, for our reference.

RE6300 AC750 Boost WI-FI from Linksys
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I received the RE6300 AC750 Boost WI-FI from Linksys as a member of their testing program. I would have to say, even if I did not get it for free, I would buy it. In fact I plan on buying one for my moms house. Just for the piece of mind of not having to worry about it messing up for her, since I live 200 miles away, and she calls me for any computer/internet issues she has. Range is great. Went from barely covering my house (on a half acre lot) before to reaching to the edge of the back yard. Set up was simple and as easy as plugging into the wall. It has Ethernet port to plug in anything that needs to be hardwired, without running wires across the floor. I myself don't care about fingerprints, and you never have to touch it besides plugging it into a outlet, but fingerprints do like to stick to it. Just wipe it down after plugging in and no worries. Has dual band so no worries as far as band frequency on connected devices. After using it for a few I really don't have any cons about it.

Posted .Hi Harry,
Although the range extender is a stand-alone device, it is dependent on the wireless router's existing Wi-Fi signal. It is very important the connection from the source is stable and that the extender is set up properly. Should you wish to discuss this with our Product Experts, feel free to email LinksysCares@linksys.com along with the link to this review for reference.

Fast, easy setup, reliable
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I received a free sample from Linksys in exchange for my honest feedback. Extender located 22 feyet from dual band router with signal thru one wall. IPad and iPhone located in house another 30 feet away from extender and thru another wall and have 3 bars. Outside patio about 35 feet away and thru one additional drywall, exterior masonry wall with aluminum cased windows and masonry fireplace the extender bounces between 2 bars and one bar. Could be ISP. IPad and iPhone on second floor, roughly 50 feet away from extender and thru 3 walls and carpet extender bounces between 2 bars and one bar. Quick Start has simple directions and graphics - makes set up easy. WPS setup did not work and had to use browser-based setup. Took about 20 minutes with one interruption. Excellent wifi extension, easy to setup, fast response and pleasing product design. Recording hand written data in booklet is difficult due to glossy paper and unit set up seems to take more time than necessary - suggest sped up.

Posted .Hi, Fairway,
Your feedback and experience with this product are valuable to us. The fluctuating wireless signal might be due to wireless interference but it may help if you'll move the range extender farther from the router if possible. Make sure that it detects at least three (3) signal bars from the main network. As for the range extender installation, we'll share your feedback with the Engineering team. This will surely be helpful in the future updates and product designs.
If you'll need our assistance, we can be reached via email at LinksysCares@linksys.com. We'd be happy to assist you.

Easy installation, great wireless coverage.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The wireless signal and internet speed in my 2-storey house works great downstairs but upstairs the wireless signal is weaker and internet slower while streaming Netflix from my Windows laptop to my TV and my wife using WIFI for her IPAD and Iphone in a separate room. I had been considering getting a wireless range extender for a while but couldn't decide if what I really needed was a new more powerful router to replace my 3 year old wireless router. My wireless router is a Linksys E900 Wireless-N300 Router connected to a cable modem on the first floor of my two story house. Linksys solved my indecision by sending me a free RE-6300 AC750 Boost WIFI Range Extender in return for posting an online product review. Apparently registering your Linksys products online does have unexpected benefits! Installation of the RE-6300 wireless range extender was easy and fast due to my existing Linksys brand wireless router. I plugged the RE-6300 Range extender into an electrical outlet close to my wireless router, pressed the Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) button on my wireless router, then pressed the WPS button on the RE-6300 range extender. Within about 2 minutes the RE-6300 LED indicator goes from blinking amber to solid green and the connection was complete. There are instructions included for connecting to other brands of wireless routers but I didn't need them. After the RE-6300 range extender was linked to my wireless router it could be unplugged and relocated. I moved it upstairs and plugged it into a convenient hallway outlet. My upstairs slow internet issue was solved! I recommend this product as a simple and easy way to extend your wireless network range.
