    Very simple to set up and this works great. Before i would not get wifi service in the area of my house where the bedrooms are. Now i have full wifi and it also actually increased my internet speed!

    This device is easy to setup, but the enhancement of the wireless signal seems rather limited. I honestly am not noticing much a difference in the far away portions of my home before versus after the range-extender was installed.

    Setup was very easy. Directions provided were very clear. Once setup was completed, it has worked flawlessly. I can now connect to the internet in my upstair bedrooms which was not always possible.

    I installed this extender because the far corner of my home, and one story higher than where the wireless router was housed, received a week signal from my wireless router. I opened the box, plugged it into the wall outlet, connected it to my laptop via ethernet cable and it was up and running in less than three minutes time. It has increased the signal to the far end of the home so that movie streaming never enters buffering. I have a strong signal in all corners of my home, on the first and second story, and have no issues.

    The extender initially worked great. After about three weeks it quite working altogether and has become a waste of my money. It initially connected to wifi with ease but soon failed. I would not recommend it to anyone!

    This device works great but there are some steps that they don't list in the directions. When first setting it up the extender had the generic password and someone hacked into it and got the wifi password from it. I went in and changed it but somebody that didn't know what to look for could be left exposed. The configuration also takes a few times to get right but once it is up and good to go it is a great device. Extended my signal to parts of the house and outside of it that I was not able to reach before

    The Linksys wireless extended has provided a much needed signal boost to access our wireless signal throughout our home. It was easy to install and functions without interruption.

    This little device is amazing! If you aren't getting a good signal, because you're to far form your WIFI box, then this is the answer. We couldn't keep signal in our son's room. Ever since we installed this halfway between the box and his room, he hasn't lost signal once.

    Purchased b/c of the "Linksys" name I thought this would be awesome and easy....turned out to be the worst product purchased. It showed a strong signal but would not allow any device to stay connected and then it would not allow any device to connect to the main wireless signal and stay connected. When connecting using cable, was unable to remotely connected to network.....could not even get it to reset back to factory (even after printing all instructions).

      Hi Swtmrndw,

      Your feedback means a lot to us and we hope you'll allow us to help you. Here are the possible solutions that you may do:

      * Place it in an area where there is still good connection from the router.
      * Use a handheld device (phone or tablet) to check for your router's signal strength. Once you can find a place where there is still 2-3 signal bars, then that's the perfect location for your extender.
      * Set your router to use a permanent wireless channel such as 1, 6, or 11.
      * Update or re-flash the firmware.

      If the connection will not improve, you can send us an email at [email protected] with your contact details, location, and the link to this review so that we can assist you further.

      Regards,

      Linksys Support
