This product wasn’t hard to set up. Once it was set up alll your devices were just as easy to connect to. Great product for large houses.

I purchased these to deal with a dead spot in my office. Around most of my office, I can get > 100 mbps wirelessly; however, in this one corner where my laptop was docked, speed went down to < 10 mbps. This worked out very well for me.
Initial setup wasn't the easiest of experiences with my network: 2 5G broadcasts, one 2G broadcast all with different SSIDs. However, once I was patient the sync process went through. This device also provides an ethernet connection in case you don't want to rely on the wifi extention this provides. This ethernet connection is what I ultimately used.
Since setting things up, my connection has been flawless and my laptop is back to 100 mbps.
When I changed my SSIDs, that made things a little tricky. I had to reset the device and deal with the setup process again.
Overall it performs great once it's installed. Setup can be a little tricky.

Has been working with no problems for weeks! Super strong signal where there was none and I researched a lot before buying. Setup took a minute but doing it on my laptop sped things up!

We were very frustrated in paying so much for internet service and not being able to get a signal in four-fifths of the house, somewhat due to the layout. I was really tired of walking around with my laptop trying to get the signal. With the help of Best Buy's staff, we chose the NETGEAR EX6150 Extender to try. Honestly, I did not have a lot of hope that it would work. It has worked perfectly throughout the 4500 sq. ft., 99% of the time. And, I was able to set it up myself, even though I was not familiar at all. LOVE IT! Thanks to Best Buy for their expertise and dedicated crew.

I was getting a lot of buffering downstairs in the farthest 2 bedrooms. My router is upstairs. So I put this downstairs in the hallway, and problem seems to be resolved. It still buffers from time to but very little. I have used it for over a month with no problems.

This had worked great to boost the wi-fi signal in my home from the second floor down to the basement.
No lag time with internet speed.

PErfect for My Workshop

I use the Internet heavily for my work-from-home job. I work from my workshop, which also serves as my office. It is a metal building that is about 125 feet from my wireless router. I purchased this to ensure my VoIP functionality would work without dropping the signal, and that videos could be watched without issue. IT has served me well, and I am very happy with the purchase.
The setup took approximately 15 minutes, counting opening the box, and I think even the most non-tech savvy user would have minimal issues setting it up.
I highly recommend this extender!

This range extender works as advertised. I was getting a very weak signal in the back of the house and could not get any signal at all in our attached garage. After installing the AC-1200 i was getting full signal in both places. Installing was not as easy as I hoped but if you have any computer experience you will not have a problem.
