Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought this for my mom after I gifted her my previous Samsung smart TV. The tv was in her bedroom and her router and modem are in the living room. As soon as we started the NY1 Apple TV app it was completely fuzzy and hardly volume. This inexpensive signal extender was the best solution. All she had to do was plug it in the outlet near her door and the signal from the router was automatically boosted and now the image and sound are as if the tv are in the living room.

Super-easy set-up. The extender also doubles the range of the router. We bought it to pair with our Ring doorbell and we are impressed with the range that it provides.

I like this product because it's easy to setup with my existing router that I have. It also works great! I love it!

Does what is expected and does it well. Did not initially pick up my 5ghz signal but after a few try’s it was good to go. Now my internet is just as fast in the back of the apartment as it is in the front.

Bought this to extend the WiFi coverage in my house. It was blurry easy to setup and has been working out great.

This helped in extending the wifi coverage, but I noticed the speeds were never consistently fast or dependable when connected to my "regular" wifi. Any device connected to this, would typically have speeds around 70% of what my router would provide, which is fine for the devices I would use. The main problem I had was the connection would randomly disconnect. I would have stretches where the connection was great for an entire day and then others where the signal would drop 3 times in an hour. I don't know if that wass a problem with my specific product, but I haven't had those issues since I switched to a wifi mesh network.

This product is really good has a very strong signal works really well

I bought this to help my WiFi signal upstairs and it took a minute to make sure it was working, but so far it works pretty good for the price. I work from home now so I need my signal to work better and faster. This is a decent WiFi extender.

Excellent!! Easy to hook up and use. Extender works great upstairs and really helped with online schooling!

The setup is extremely easy using the WPS button. The Linksys APP makes configuration changes, and administration a breeze. The price is reasonable. My problem is with the transition from router connection to extender connection. The default settings give the extender and added EXT to SSID. That is not too much of a problem with phones, laptops, etc, but it is extremely annoying when connecting steaming devices, Apple TV, Smart TVs , alarm systems, etc. So much so I decided to no longer use it. I would not recommend this product with an average size home, 2,300 square feet, etc. For a larger home, perhaps it could be a plus, but no added benefit for me.

This range extender is very easy to set up right out of the box. The ability to find optimal coverage of the home or business is a major headache saver.

It was difficult to set up but works great so far. I followed the instructions completely, multiple times and each way that was included in the directions. It finally worked. Now we have WiFi in whole basement.

This was not an easy installation. The instructions and online manuals simply were not accurate. What was supposed to happen as I completed steps in the installation did not happen, so the choices the instructions provided were irrelevant. I called LinkSys help operators to get instruction. My first four calls ended when I was cut-off - sometimes when I had been told I was going to be transferred to another person, sometimes simply in the middle of conversation. Each call, including the fifth, I was asked to go through the entire installation process from scratch even though it resulted in the same exact failure every time. It was often right after this failure when I would be cut-off. The fifth operator stuck with me and eventually - after installing updated firmware that the installation program indicated was not needed (or even available) - the unit did finally work. In the end, I spent over 3 hours on the phone to LinkSys to get this installed. By that time I was angry and frustrated. But it does work now. I have been using my extender to reach WiFi devices at the far end of my home and it has been stable since installation almost a month ago. So I am gradually forgetting the nightmare of installation and am basking, instead, in my ultimate success. I have not had to think about it since installation. Once WiFi devices are connected to the repeater network, it simply works completely transparent to me. No glitches. Even after a power failure to my house, it came back up without any effort on my part - everything functioning as before the power outage. I have noticed no network slowing. Devices I am using through the extender include a large screen smart TV, a laptop used primarily for streaming video and an outside security camera. I have no idea how competing devices might install or perform relative to this one. I can conclude that this device was a monster to install, but seems to work well once that hurdle was overcome.

Initial setup was annoying. The signal readout would only say it was too far or too close to the router signal. After I skipped over that, it works fine. The signal reaches to my garage over 100ft from my house. Very happy.

Easy to install and use. Works very well. Perfect for my upstairs new home office.

I Centurylinks poor service combined with with this extender it was link reverting to a 28.8 modem

It was a good value and works well for the most part. It does go off but pops back on and did need to reset but does take care of the problem we were having.

After trying several signal boosters, I have found that this was the easiest one to set up. I now have a great signal in the hard to reach areas of my home.

Easy to install and understand. No complaints on performance. Solved our signal problem upstairs in our home.

it serves it purpose. i dont know how well it is compared to other products. its getting the signal to an area which had no signal so it works
