    At first it wasn't working correctly.

    The signal would drop every hour and be down for a few minutes. Really got aggravating considering I bought it about 5 weeks ago. Called Linksys support and they helped me through installing new firmware. Their support is meant for people with really no computer knowledge which made me mad since they are very slow with explaining things. They said if the problem returned they would ship out a new one. They tried to say it is my router, which I know for a fact is not the problem... I really hate when customer support doesn't believe you.

    Good Range Extender for Large House

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I have a Linksys AC router which was not able to reach the far end of my house so I bought this extender to add range, which it has. However, the connection is considerably slower than it should be, this is due in part to my internet connection but not entirely. I like the range extender as it helps cut down my data usage while I am in my house but not at this price for what I have gotten out of the device.

    Never buy the newest Linksys product. The firmware usually isn't usually ready until it is being replaced by the next gen of router.

    Had to purchase a second unit to have consistent internet access at the furthest point from the router. & this in an average size villa. Set up was easy.

      Hi Manic01,

      We appreciate the time you spent in sharing this review. Here are the possible solutions that you may do:

      * Place it in an area where there is still a 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.

      For further assistance, feel free to email us at [email protected] with your contact details, location, and the link to this review for reference.

      Regards,

      Linksys Support

    We had several dead spots in our home, due to the construction materials used (old home with solid wood walls). We are now able to get connected and stay connected anywhere in the house.

    I really do like it. It covers the downstairs just perfect. My only concern is if it loses communication with the main modem there is no internet. It has only happened twice but a little worried about that for the future.

    I tried other 2 wireless range extenders and they were all creating another wireless network in a different name from that point. But this extender extends the current wireless network rather that creating a new wireless network.

    First purchased device broke and had to return. Since then the replacement has worked perfectly. Helps boost the wireless coverage for the first level of house as the 2nd floor is where the main device is located.

    Set up easy enough. When you move it out to extend the range it can't be found if it's more than 10-15 feet away. I expected it to be out a lot further than that before it started to disconnect. But it does work.
