Posted .Hi, Unhappy,
If your router’s SSID is hidden, temporarily set it to broadcast and move the extender closer to the router during the setup. If that won’t help, we’ll have our Escalation Engineers assist you further. Just send us an email at [email protected] with your contact information and a link to this post as our reference.

Horrible
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a horrible purchase. It never worked and I ended up returning it to the store.

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.

Posted .Hi, Will,
It is recommended to place the Linksys RE6300 in between the router and the area you wished to extend the wireless connection. Also, you may try relocating the extender and try power cycling the unit and see if the same issue appears. We can have our Escalation Engineers assist you further by sharing this through email at LinksysCares@linksys.com with your contact info and the link of this review, for our reference.
