If you live for frustration, this is the tool for you. The signal constantly drops, up down up down. The 8 yr old extender I was replacing works better than this junk.

Followed enclosed instructions, watched videos, read tips online, nothing allowed this unit to improve my weak wifi signal to desired side of the house. Did not work for me.
