Customers are saying
Customers love the Velop Plug-In AC1300 Dual-Band Wi-Fi Mesh Extender's ease of use and the improved Wi-Fi range and signal strength it provides. Many appreciate its performance in extending coverage, particularly in previously difficult areas. While some found the price high and instructions slightly lacking, the positive experiences with setup and compatibility outweigh these concerns for most users.

Weak signals
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Setup with the Linksys app was easy enough, but both the 2.4 and 5 GHz signals are very weak.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Linksys Staff
Posted .Hi, bob77,
This is totally unexpected as we designed the Velop Mesh Extender to provide a Wi-Fi range up to 1,500 sq. ft., assuring coverage in traditionally underused areas for better Wi-Fi to all devices. Make sure that it is placed on a spot where it gets optimal coverage from the main node, and away from physical obstructions as they play a great deal to the overall performance of the extender. Make sure that it runs the latest firmware as well.
Our Escalation Engineers would love to assist and aid in experiencing the best out of the unit. Please drop us an email with your contact details and the link to this review for reference at LinksysCares@linksys.com.

Works well
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worked great extending the wifi in a larger house. It did randomly disconnect sometimes but i think its something to do with the wifi.

||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use the Velop wifi mesh system in my house and found we had a dead spot. This little unit was the perfect solution. Just plugged it in to an outlet just outside of the dead spot, configured it with the app and problem solved.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had some doubts with Linksys but it actually works well. I have 3 level home and it’s helping the WiFi connection. Called Linksys multiple times to set them up.
I would recommend this to a friendHelps extend overall range
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Software still could use some work but overall I am very happy with my Velop system. Have been using for 3 + years this was a nice edition to cover some dead spots.
I would recommend this to a friendPretty good
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to extend the WiFi in my house and it was the best thing I could of done, got the same down and upload speeds and I’m in the opposite side of the house
I would recommend this to a friendMost cost effective way to improve WiFi
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have an older house with very solidly. Obstructed walls that WiFi signals struggle to penetrate. This device helps compensate for that. It’s priced fairly and allows you to enhance your WiFi coverage at a reasonable dollar figure.
I would recommend this to a friendQuality Extender
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed to extend our signal for a wifi camera we bought. We placed the extender in the garage and now we can use the wifi camera outside the garage. Does the job. Very easy setup with the app.
I would recommend this to a friendGood extender with mesh system
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Setup can be a bit finicky. Overall the system itself is great when it works, the app is useful and it works well.
I would recommend this to a friendNice additional to a Velop and easy to conceal
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this rather than an additional velop node because I wanted something I could simply plug into an outlet. Less noticeable than the node cube. Works well as long as the outlet is not covered by furniture.
I would recommend this to a friendVelop Mesh Extender worked great.
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Although my existing Velop WiFi6 mesh setup covers my entire house, I had a dead spot in my garage . The addition of this mesh extender covered the additional 3 WiFi lights and my irrigation system.

I would recommend this to a friendNeeded an Internet Boost
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Our booster seems to be helping our Internet range. The young man who helped us finally decide on which one to buy was very helpful.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat extender!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this little extender to extend my home's Velop wifi network since there's a corner of my house has dead signal. After plug this in, now it has excellent network signal and speed! Highly recommended on larger house.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We now have a strong WIFI signal in a room that was previously difficult to get a consistent signal in. Very satisfied with this product.
I would recommend this to a friendBest WIFI Extender on the market.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Another quality product made by Linksys. Has completely allowed complete wifi service through my home using the existing Linksys Velop Mesh Towers I had earlier purchased. Well worth the money.
I would recommend this to a friendImproved coverage
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This option for improving our "mesh" coverage around our fairly large home has worked great. People should spend the time learning how to use the associated Linksys app to really manage their installations.
I would recommend this to a friendOffice
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Linksys App would not display "connected with Wi-Fi Router". I had to call Linksys technician who was capable of confirming connection. Extender works as advertised
I would recommend this to a friendGreat addition!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this to go along with Velop nods and it works great. Give me a bit extra coverage where the other nods wouldn’t. Use the app and it will be a breeze to install and navigate.
I would recommend this to a friendWorks ok
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Helps, but not everything that you would expect. Is better than the wifi extenders I have owned, but still does not work as well as advertised.
