    Frankly speaking, it's exactly what you need to extend your WiFi coverage and mesh in with your existing Linksys System. It's easy to install and sync up with your system and provides excellent extended coverage with a strong connection. Reconnects after power outage! Great value for the price!

    Great way to extend existing WiFi mesh. Easy setup. The status indicator is nice and bright. I had it set up in the back yard. It’s still going. No trouble at all.

    I have a Velop mesh router with 3 units for my ranch house and the coverage is great but one room is too far from the nearest Velop unit so I purchased this extender. It works great. I like the colored light that tells you the signal strength.

    Already had 3 Velops covering office, family room, basement, etc ... but master bedroom had poor signal. This extender plugged right into a wall outside bedroom, extremely easy to add to the network, and now bedroom coverage is great.

    Excellent mesh node. Extremely simple set up and connection to main router (primary node). 10 fold improvement to connection with smart devices and exterior cameras. Videos no longer have any lag in streaming to devices. Purchased on sale so excellent price for an excellent product. Monitored and managed through same app as router, so entire net and connected devices can be managed from one app. Definitely recommend.

    It was very easy to setup. As usual, Linksys products are very reliable. I needed to strengthen my WiFi signal in the garage to cover my Ring Flood Lights. It is a great signal booster.

    It works just like we wanted it to! Extended our wifi to a place that had a weak signal. Plugged it in and added it to the network in just a couple of minutes!

    I purchased a Linksys - Max Stream AX6000 Dual-Band Mesh Wi-Fi Router a few months ago because I was having connectivity issues. I paired it with my existing RX7000 extenders. I was told that they were compatible with AX6000 and they did work. However, there was no improvement in my Internet. With the purchase of the AC1300 Mesh Extender. My Internet improved dramatically. The unit was easy to install. I now have a seamless network. I no longer see my networkname_ext only my networkname because this is a Mesh Extender. The network speed is tremendous with great connectivity. This Mesh Extender is a game changer.

    Extender works well but does not stay connected

    A bit complicated to install involving securing an app for a mobile phone so you can properly set up the extender. Instructions were a bit incomplete requiring a call to a help line at Linksys. After a predictably long wait I got an advisor who was very helpful and guided me through the set up. The extender does not stay connected and often requires unplugging the unit and replugging it into the wall which does seem to restore the connection. When it is connected it works very well.

    It works as expected, although it was difficult to install because at the end it says there was no connection with the router even being in the same room. I tried several times (~10) and it worked at the very last one when I decided it was the last attempt before returning. In terms of the performance, I would say it was improved, but not amazingly although I'm satisfied with it.

    I originally purchased another brand (with poor instructions), which I could not get to work. This Linksys had better instructions. It does take some patience to set up. The cable port is a nice feature, in addition to the wireless. Sometimes, though, my computers say the internet is not available, even though this Linksys shows green light. It may be my Spectrum internet service.
