Customer Ratings & Reviews

Seems to do it's job for the price. Went through 2 other extenders, so so far this one has worked the best.

It took some effort to get it to work. The Express option just referred us to the more involved setup. But it now works.

Device works well. However, you do have to find a ideal location to put it in your house.

This item was easy to install and is working as it is supposed to right now. We just bought it last weekend, but we have not had any problems.

Really works. Now, I have full signal in my house.

This Linksys Max-Stream solved our connection problems.

The device does what it says. It is easy enough to set up and connect to and it DOES extend your home network. That being said, it doesn’t really offer the same speeds extended. Great if you just need to watch Netflix in a far room - not so great for gaming.

Great signal extender! We don't get great signal from our router upstairs even with the more pricey linksys router. Plugged this on one in the middle of one of our stair cases and we have perfect high speed internet throughout the house!

Works good! I bought this so my parents can have access to my internet. Note my parents live next door and even though sometimes it buffers, its not bad for a two house internet.

I had trouble connecting with my system. I am not as Tech-savvy as I need to be to connect.

I was using a Linksys RE4100W WiFi Range Extender but was interested to see if the RE7000 would provide better performance....did it ever! Having been through the setup process already, setting up the RE7000 was very straight forward and was completed in about 5 minutes. Follow the easy-to-read instructions in the startup guide and visit the website provided and you'll be on your way in no time. I did use the Spot Finder app and it seemed to provide good information as to where to place the unit for optimal performance. Once up and running, I noticed a significant increase in my network's range and speed. My neighbors actually asked me what I had done since my network shows up in their WiFi list with a stronger signal then their own!! It's been up and running for a little over a week now and have had no issues. We did have a power outage due to a storm and the unit remembers settings so there was no need to do anything once the power came back on...it simply reset itself. There is no noticeable lag in switching from my router to the extender, I couldn't be happier with this product.

Works well. Extended my wifi to my hone office even tho it is far

The Linksys RE7000 is an effective addition to any wireless network where reliable and extended coverage is required. This is often the case in larger homes or offices owing to the building materials utilized for construction as well as the number of interior walls or floors present. The Linksys RE7000 definitely shines at extending the Wi-Fi network but can also add a new wired port. The RE7000 is very easy to set up offering several methods to achieve connection with your existing Wi-Fi router. In my particular case, I currently had Linksys EA9500 Max-Stream router in place which allowed for an easy set up utilizing the WPS buttons located on the router as well as the RE7000 unit. Connection between the units took only a few minutes (honestly less than 5 and that included me reading the instructions). A distinct advantage of utilizing the RE7000 is its ability to reproduce/operate at the two different Wi-Fi frequencies that my EA9500 is putting out, 2.4 GHz and 5 Ghz. As others have mentioned, the extended network speeds may not be up the same as those supplied directly from the router which I did notice but nothing that was detrimental to streaming movies or playing video games online. My specific intended use was to utilize the LAN port of the RE7000 to provide a wired connection for an older tv without Wi-Fi connectivity, i.e operate the RE7000 as a bridge. This ability became exceptionally valuable recently when I needed to download a large file for a game on my XboxOne system. Running of the Wi-Fi I was getting variable speeds, spiking but averaging ~25 Mbps. My ISP is currently rated at 50 Mbps so I was a bit disappointed and not looking to the hour or so it was going to take to download the 5 Gb update. Luckily I remembered the wired connection and plugged my XboxOne to the LAN port of the RE7000 and suddenly I was downloading at 50-60 Mbps! In summry, the Linksys RE7000 provides an easy and effective way to extend the Wi-Fi network in a home or office but can suffer from a reduction in connection speeds. In most cases, the reduction in speeds would likely not be noticed under average use (streaming, web viewing, etc).

Range is eh, perhaps, I need to re start. Seems to disconnect itself now and then.

Didn’t see a lot of difference in single strength so not convinced.

Returned it. The ratings were good but I decided not to use it.

Works just ok. Loses connection a lot. Not my first choice.

Was exactly what I was looking for within a reasonable price. Good quality as well.

Has a excellent reach i live living in a 2 family house with 3 floors the router is on 1 st floor and i get great internet connection now at the 3rd floor wherre the extender is currently located.

Purchased for my mom about a week ago. Set up was pretty easy and now she has a very strong wifi signal throughout her home. Before setup, I could barely get one bar of wifi, if any, and now there are three bars in the dead zones.
