    Filled in 2nd floor dead spots. Speed is a little slower with the rebroadcasting but not that noticible with the stronger signals .

    Easy setup with no discernable signal strength loss. Consistently tests at 100+Mbps download speed which is exactly the speed at which my main router tests and, incidentally, what I’m paying for. The “spot finder” technology did not work as well as the box seemed to indicate … the green light would sometimes indicate perfect placement then drop. However, once I found the optimal location, it works great.

    This device works great with Linksis AP, provides seamless roaming between the AP and the repeater. Price is little bit expensive.

    Our server is downstairs and the opposite side of the house from our bedroom. We were constantly losing wifi and using data. We decided to try the extender. It was really easy to set up, and NO MORE dead zones in the house! Great Product!

      Hi,

      If that's the case, you can take advantage of the range extender's Seamless Roaming feature provided that you have a Max-Stream router and 802.11r-compliant devices. To know more about it, check out this article, http://www.linksys.com/us/support-article?articleNum=200529. Please reach out to us at LinksysCares@linksys.com should you have inquiries and our Escalation Engineers would be there to assist you.

    This thing has been a lifesaver for many people I have helped setup. The range it can produce is pretty impressive and can travel through and around various obstructions to keep the signal going for a solid length.

    Doesn't work very well. Constantly stops working or the signal drops. Many of my devices won't even connect to it, they say that the device doesn't have an internet connection or says that the extender doesn't support my device type. I had set it up as an extender at first, but also tried setting it up as an access point (via Ethernet cable). No matter which way it was set up, it wouldn't work correctly. I went through the instructions provided by Linksys each time, but for some reason the thing wouldn't work for long periods of time. The only device that could connect to it was my laptop, all my other devices would allow me to connect. Waste of time trying to get it to work, will be returning today.

    I'm not a techie, so this is a totally subjective, non-technical review. I needed a repeater to increase the strength of my signal on the second floor as my modem is in the basement. This repeater works well and I was able to connect my smart tv to it as well. Having the tv "wired" has worked better than connecting it over wi-fi. Overall I am happy with my purchase. The reason fir four stars and not five? Basically because I don't know enough about repeaters to give it five stars.

    Exactly what I needed to extend my WiFi signal out to my detached garage. Gave me the extra distance I needed and was able to set up in no time. Extra distance needed was about 150 feet across the driveway to the garage.
