Bad product

Synchronizing this product with your modem is really a pain . Securing it with a password so that no one outside your home can use it is a task for a software engineer with 6 PhDs, literally impossible for someone who is just looking to extend the Wi-Fi range in their home easily and quickly.

The installation of this was long and difficult. once I got it working it requested to do a firmware update. Once the update was complete it went dead. I tried to reinstall and it never worked, I had to return it. I went to a hardware store to buy a competitive product and it installed under 5 min and works well.

Bought this for my home that has a lot of walls between the bedroom and router. The extender allows me to connect from my room with OK speeds and connection, but it constantly loses connection with my phone but doesnt throw any error codes.

it said it was connected, mind you i have a older netgear extender it is wonderful connects fast and easy one button push one button push it's on, this one after fooling with it for a hour and half said was connected but every time I tried to get on the internet it said please go to the netgear site so I did, i logged on and connected this way, and still nothing. I am returning, what a waste of time, worst product ever, NOT user friendly and frustrating beyond. I worked with networks my whole life, this is a piece of junk, don't believe the reviews.

It has been a PAIN to TRY and set up. The all glorious ap continually says sign-in is wrong, even if I reset a password immediately.. The device has a wi-fi name and it takes over my home wi-fi. I thought/hoped it would be easier and better than this..

This was difficult to connect, I was able to connect it to my router but, for some reason it would pop up as in my work search
