Works okay
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Using the hardwire connection is a little quirky to get setup and the Wi-Fi range barely reaches through one wall and glass doors to the back patio about 100 ft. away. Overall it works well enough, but I wasn’t impressed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Linksys Staff
Posted .Hi, ProInstaller,
Factors such as physical obstructions especially glass and thick walls will greatly affect the coverage and connection from the extender. However, we’d like to have our Escalation Engineers check if there’s anything that can be done to improve its overall performance. Just email us at LinksysCares@linksys.com with your contact information and a link to this review as a reference.

I would recommend this to a friendWorks with limited Mesh intergration
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I hoped to create a mesh network with this, However it is limited in its capabilities based on the router your using, My fault I should have done better research on it. Packaging got me. As an extender it worked well I used Ethernet as the back haul.

I would recommend this to a friendWouldn’t recommend. Has to be a better one
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Increases wifi with certain objects (a computer). But has made my wifi worse on my tv so I had to disconnect and go back to the original.( In the room that needed extending….) I was attempting to use Microsoft teams for school in the original area of my wifi that didn’t need extending and found myself with 50x worse wifi because my computer didn’t know which wifi to link to. AND one wifi kicked the other out.. it’s just a constant battle between the 2 where the original strength of the wifi was…

Posted .Hi, Enano,
There are different factors that can cause slow and intermittent internet connection - could be that the range extender is too far from the router, obstructions, etc. Please try the following workarounds to isolate the setback:
- Check if the range extender is properly set up ensures greater WiFi speed, coverage and signal strength: https://www.linksys.com/support-article?articleNum=207554.
- Set the wireless settings same as your router's settings: https://www.linksys.com/support-article?articleNum=187982.
- Place the range extender as high off the ground as possible.
You may also email us at LinksysCares@linksys.com so we can have our 2nd level support assist you further. Please include the link of this review for easy reference.
