Hi JamesM,
This is totally unexpected since our products are engineered for extended usage. Placing the range extender within the Wi-Fi range of your wireless router may potentially address the problem. We'd like to have our Escalation Engineers assist you further. Just send us an email at [email protected], along with your contact information and a link to this post for our reference.

Piece of c___. Does not work. Followed directions for "simple" set-up to the letter. Did not work. Then went to website "Help" address provided in the written instructions. This model is not on the "Help" site. Then tried browser connection directions. Did not work. Then asked for help via "chat" line. Would only help if I gave credit card information. Are you kidding? I wasted 6 hours of my life on this piece of c___.

Bought this one to replace an older model. Had nothing but trouble trying to set it up. My router does not have a WPS button so had to set it up manually. Tried multiple times, accessed the Linksys website for assistance with no success. Had an IT person try to set it up but he had the same difficulty that I had. Now it's beyond return period, so I'm stuck with it.

This WiFi extender would not sync with my router/modem combo. I watched several how to videos online and every member of my family did the same and then tried to sync it as well but we eventually had to return it to the store.

Hi,
Make sure to place the range extender closer to the router to avoid signal intermittence during setup and so as ensuring that we are getting a stable connection coming from the main network. You may find this link helpful on how to properly setup the RE7350: https://www.linksys.com/support-article?articleNum=318159.
Should you need further assistance with the configuration, email your contact details and the link to this post at [email protected]. Our Escalation Engineers will assist you from there.

Hi, TomV,
The Linksys RE7350 can provide better coverage and a stronger WiFi signal. Make sure that the router's connection is stable and try to use the spot finder to ensure your Linksys range extender is in the right spot. But, allow us to assist you further. You can reach out to us at [email protected] with the link to this review for our reference.
