    Great extender! This thing picks up signal from my Netgear router at the opposite end of my 3600 square foot house from upstairs to the basement and broadcasts full signal to my basement. Excellent throughput and strong signal make this a quality purchase at a fair price.

    I am pretty (or so I thought tech savvy). For years, we couldn’t get our internet to work fully to the performance it promised. We cancelled cable etc. on a last ditch effort, I tried this repeater. OMG.... we still don’t have cable, but now stream all of our tv. Which saves us thousands a year. Best Buy!!!!

    Took a few attempts to connect up to my network, but once connected, it extends my internet service out to my shop, a separate building behind my house. While the extender slows the speed down, it is still plenty good enough to get streaming video and podcasts.

    Husband had an issue with weak signal prior to purchase. Couldn’t get wifi connection for smoker grill but once he connected the extender, he was finally successful to smoke our meals outside and monitor the temperature and cooking with this device.

      Hi,

      There are several factors that could cause a limited range such as physical obstructions, wireless interference, or a poor placement. You may try moving the extender around to get an optimum placement and make sure that it is running on the latest firmware.

      If nothing helps, we’ll have our Escalation Engineers lend you a hand. Just reach out to us at LinksysCares@linksys.com with your contact information and a link to this review as a reference when you reach out.

    Bought it for my mother in law who is in an assisted living facility hoping it had enough juice to get her WiFi. It did not, but it was not the products fault.

    Connection range is improved. However, I experience problems with ip addresses with windows 10 computers. I think the reported seamless roaming between these extenders and my Linksys EA9500 router is not seamless and therefore I have connection problems with some windows 10 pcs depending on whether they are connecting to the router or the extender... This is particularly evident with Asus computers. Consider mesh network rather than traditional router with these extenders.

      Hi,

      As long as the computers support seamless roaming, switching between the main router and the extender should be smooth. If you can give us more details about the challenges that you are having, we can have our Escalation Engineers check it out.

      Just send us your contact details at [email protected] along with the link to this post for our reference.

      We hope to hear from you soon.

    I bought an outdoor cam and the signal wasnt reaching it. I got the linksys signal repeater and I placed it in my kitchen. (It let's you know where the best place to put it ) I entered my wifi password. It was easy. Now my cam works fine. It doesnt buffer or freezes mid viewing.
