    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 does exactly what I need it to do. It allows me to connect my non-wifi enabled camera system to the internet without having to run a cable through the entire house to plug it into the router. This device has not dropped the connection at all since setting it up. Great product! The only critique I have is that my phone's VPN was preventing the app from working to connect the device to my wifi. The instructions didn’t suggest turning off my VPN. I had to search the internet for that solution. I would recommend Netgear add this as a recommendation when the app fails to detect the device.

    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.

    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!

    Being a little dubious about an extender I was cautiously optimistic, as I have heard varying reports about extenders ranging from a waste of money to outstanding performance. Mine is the latter, and so very easy to set up as well! The signal strength had full bars with no drop outs at all. I had the unit set up in the garage as family members were staying in our camper and were in need of internet connection; this particular unit worked so very well.

    A good range 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.

    Better than expected. Set up was easy and have the option to mesh the unit or make it an extender. Directions should indicate you can still use weblink to set up the device. Over all very happy with the set up and very stable and works seemlessly.

    I was really looking forward to upgrading our previous extender with this one, but all it did was slow down our network to a snail's pace....to the point where it was impossible to use beyond our normal network range, which kind of negates the point of having this, right? Plus, since you have to plug it into a wall outlet, you are somewhat limited as to where you can place it. On the plus side, it was super easy to set up and easy to tell whether or not we were connected and how strong the signal was. Unfortunately, this makes no difference if the product doesn't extend said signal so that it can actually be used. We ended up returning this.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
