    I do like Netgear, which is why I was ok with a 2 star rating. The reason it got a low rating is totally my preference in what I was looking for. I wanted whole home coverage. An extender just amplifies the signal, and you need to sign into this as a different network. That is a bit inconvenient. The set up was kind of a pain as well, took a while if you've never done it before.

    Improved wifi reception some but not as much as expected. It did allow me to pick up in a few area of the house that previously had slow or no reception.

    Hard to tell if this truly works. Seems to help sometimes but not others. It was also challenging to set up.

    The setup was a little clunky. The Wi-Fi SSID for the extender causes some confusion for novice users. Works ok but signal could be stronger.

    I read both the good and bad reviews prior to purchasing this product. There is ALWAYS going to be the unsatisfied "1-star" raters. This time, they are correct, I am VERY disappointed in this Netgear product. At three weeks sitting in the same room as the extender we couldn't connect to the Internet on our IPhone 6's. I don't know if it's a software capatibility issue or not, but we have to use the main router to access internet with reduced connectivity in the farthest part of the house.
