    Love the performance. Setup takes focus, but once p and running it has performed flawlessly. I had purchased a Linksys unit that did not perform well and ended up exchanging it for the AC1000. Great performance and great value! It has cured all the dead spots in our condo.

    A nice job extending my network

    It detected my network easily and was easy to set up. My devices had no trouble detecting it. The signal is pretty strong but it is a little slower. Pay attention to detecting where your signal drops off and place the extender closer to your router as the directions state. This is important. Otherwise, the extender just tries to extend a poor signal. I like it a lot.

    We needed both a wifi range extender and the ability to connect one home theater component to wifi directly. This product fills the bill. It took almost no time to install and set up. The instructions are clear and accurate. It has worked trouble-free for more than a month. It gives us a stronger wifi signal throughout the house plus a reliable connection to make our home theater reach its potential.

    I purchased this extender a month ago, after using the Netgear WN3000 (smaller version) for 9 months. I thought i would get a stronger and more consistent signal, which I am. I moved the smaller one to another room for the kids games and use this one in another part of the house. FYI if you ever want to reset it, use a paperclip and hold it in for 60 seconds (had to call customer support to find that part out). Works great!!! Highly recommend !!

    This is the best range extender so far. I wasn't sure about it, but it was recommended by the xFinity technician and I just decided to give it a try. It works great! I bought it primarily for my smart TV. There was no way for me to connect TV directly to my router because it is more necessary to have direct connection to my computer, so I obviously was in need to range extender for my TV. Netgear range extender is THE answer! I had another one before (securify almond) and it didn't work good - slow connectivity, sometimes it would not connect at all or it would drop the connection in the middle. It was frustrating to say the least. I don't watch TV often, but when I watch it I want it to work (obviously!) Now it works with this small thing Perfectly, so I am very very pleased with this purchase.

    After trying multiple different set ups, with multiple units including google home 3 unit repeater, I found that this Wi-Fi extender works better than all the others. Faster downloading, no drop signal, simply works great at about a third the price that I paid for the other units. Definitely worth the money$$$

    I was needing a WiFi extender for my home. It's not a large house, but the router is in the corner of the living room and I needed better connectivity in the kids' bedrooms on the opposite side of the house. I plugged this into a hallway outlet and so far (about a month) it works great! Easy to set up, as well.

    Works great We have a Ranch Style home and needed to extend WiFi to the other side of the house. Setup was easy using the App. I had to try a few different places in the house to get optimum coverage.

    I have always had good luck with Netgear products. This one is no exception. Is is well built and works well. Does a nice job of extending the signal. I would really like to use it as an access point so it’s not it’s own WI FI network but I am not able to get a cable to it. It gets a solid connection and the speed shows it.

    The product adds signal strength for those devices that are farther away from your router but still within range. I evaluated this unit on my laptop on the other side of my house opposite the router. In other words, my router is on one side of the house and my laptop was on the other side of my house during this test. I did not detect any signal degradation and would recommend this product to others looking to extend their router's signal strength at a reasonable price.

    This wireless extender is a no brainer set up! It does exactly what it needs to do, works like a charm. We had done a lot of research and were going to buy another product, but this product works the way it should and was so easy to set up which was great. Now our wireless works through the house with no problems.

    We live in a triple wide Mobil Home that’s also long and our router is in or living room which is at one end. The bedrooms at the other end had a very weak signal to none so I was having problems with streaming tv. I added this in the middle so now we have a strong WIFI signal though out our house. It’s was easy to set up.

    This was very easy to setup and is working great! I have my router in the basement and so my second floor and backyard had limited connectivity. This solved the problem in less than 10min and provides good speed and access.

    easy walk through steps and works great. it has extended the radius of my wifi signal tremendously. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to extend their coverage. We have three stories to our home so our wifi signal was weak in different areas.

    Works very well. Though setup was a challenge. I rec'd using your the app for the first install. If you are installing a second Extender such as I did, use your laptop instead. The app will only recognize the first extender. Also name your extender wifi a different SSID each for the 2.4 and 5 Ghz bands. This will allow your devices to connect exclusively to the proper extender you want to use.

    This unit is great, it is extending both the 2.4 and 5.0 GB wireless networks, works great, it is strong and fast enough that steaming from Netflix or Hulu with NO BUFFERING, yes. The main router in my house is in the basement in the family room, this unit is plugged into the Living Room on the ground floor and also supplies a fantastic signal to the bedrooms upstairs.

    We were not sure about this but it had good reviews. We needed something to "boost" our WiFi for the opposite end of the house. It works great!! Get great signal strentgh from that side of the house now and our Netflix does not "Buffer" anymore. It is a great extender and works well. Very easy set up.
