After many ties and a service call from my internet provider, I cannot make this device reach 75 feet outside my house.
I've tried these approaches for the last 3.5 week, and now I fear that I cannot exchange or return it.

If your wifi router doesn't have a wps button just dont get this thing. Because the other option they give you to pair it to the router is just ridiculous. This thing is now sitting in my car because i haven't had time to return it.

Took an hour on the phone with customer support to get extender to properly operate. And once we had it working, I found zero improvement in signal strength on my 2nd floor. Will be returning same-day.

It’s my fault, I should have read that I needed to download their app and allow them to track my activity. I plan to return it and I’m hopeful to find one that doesn’t require those things.

Not a Successful Upgrade

It did not extend or solidify my ATT wireless TV connection. It was complicated because of the ATT connection and caused interference with the Netgear unit. Further, the problems I had caused me to miss the 15 day return , so now I own this thing even though it doesn't work with ATT.
