Good range, good speed. Only issue is it disconnects every once in a while for a brief moment then reconnects.

And Great Coverage! Install was simple, make sure you place the extender for your setup close the your router, look in your wifi settings for the linksys extender, then follow the instruction pages on your phone or other wireless device. Refer to instructions with equiptment if any difficulty. Move it to anyplace in the house after setup, always making sure you get a solid green light for the best signal strength. Awesome, and compatible with my Frontier equiptment!

I was trying to expand my internet access in my home due to the number of connected devices all the time. I was thinking of adding a second wireless router, but, there are some extra complications with that. I was directed toward this wireless extender instead, and I am very happy with how this performs. It wasn't the connected devices that were really the issue, it was the location of the wireless router. This extender has fixed that very well.

Problem Solved

I was told these things slow down your speed. This one matches my router. Linksys technical support sort of guided me on the set up to get it going. I would have to accept that maybe this device could interfere with overall connection speed, but I am unable to tell. Everything is working in my home. The people that told me this device slows speed probably know more about it than I. This has thus 100% solved the connection problem I was having with something in my house that is away from my router. Everything else still works fine. Maybe it is affecting connection speed somehow. Maybe slower? I don't know. Internet is fast these days. The Item that couldn't be reached by my router is now rock solid. All I know is Problem Solved.

Best device for expand wifi network

Great device. I live in a 3 floor house and the wifi on half the 3rd floor is spotty and the rest of the 3rd floor is non existent! Once I got this device I connected it in the hallway on the second floor and it helped but then move it to the third floor hallway and the results immediately were about the same as the second floor but I at least had wifi on the entire 3rd floor now. 24 hours after I noticed all my devices connected no problem and no internet issues so I ran a speeetest and was getting about 190 MBPS sometimes faster. I was shocked I was getting better results now on the third floor then I do on the first floor where the main wifi box is located. I would recommend this device to anyone looking to expand there wifi and increase speed.

Plug in wireless repeater, allows for wireless signal to be boosted and thus distributed beyond the normal range of the router, even through walls!

I bought this extender to replace my old one that stooped working. This extender works much better then the netgear one i had. The signal is stronger and more reliable. I am happy with my purchase.

As expected with linksys products the packaging was nice, compact, which I like. The device was a bit more bulky than anticipated but not the brick it looks like. Having a linksys router (ea7500 max stream) made set up and use a little easier. Took a few tries to setup but could have been used error. Once connected to network and placed it works beautifully and consistently. The only issue I have is I wish it integrated with the router backend portal. It uses it's own site to control which the UI isnt as friendly as the linksys smart wifi site for the routers. Having both router and extender makes it possible to move about my house/yard without having to manually connect to a network. The system chooses the strongest network and switches it for me. Ive walked about a block from my house before losing connection. Overall very happy with my purchase. Would reccomend.

Easy to install. Just be sure you connect any external Wi-Fi device to the Wi-Fi-ext network. It took me hours to figure out why the connection to my outdoor camera wasn’t working better before I figured out my mistake.

My husband purchased this unit to extend our internet signal out to the garage. It is small, simple to operate and inexpensive. The only complaint is that it does not periodically self reboot.

We are using this repeater with an ASUS wifi router that is downstairs and the speeds upstairs are excellent.

The rep directed me to buy this device given that I have GIG speed and that I am in a multi-level townhouse with the base modem/router on the lowest level. Product has improved speed up on top levels of townhome. Only complaint is that the device has needed to be unplugged and re-plugged in a few times in order to re-connect, for no apparent reason.

My router is upstairs and I needed a new extender after I was upgraded to 5g- it works great! Now my Ring cameras are back online and everything works as it should!
