    Handy Range Extender

    This range extender is an excellent little device! The setup was easy—I simply plugged it in and was able to configure everything right from my phone's web browser. No need for an extra app, which is always a bonus. It is fast enough to handle Netflix streaming or keeping a Ring camera running smoothly. If you're looking to extend your WiFi to cover areas like your backyard or garage but don't want to invest in a full mesh system, this extender is a great option. It’s compact, doesn't require any extra wires, and does the job well.

    I've used several range extenders in the past and this one is best by far in ease of setup and effectiveness. My router is at the rear of my house and I set this up for a computer bench in my garage and three cameras in the front of my house. Everything is at full signal strength with this extender.

    Easy to set up. I plugged it in at one end of a 40' building, closest to our house. I had not been able to access internet at the other end of the 40' building. Now, I have my computer on the opposite end of the building (farthest from my house) and the internet connection works great!

    I bought this Wifi Range Extender to put in my converted garage because I struggled to get connection for my workstation computer for various artistic projects and for playing games on Xbox Live. The computer needed an ethernet connection which this device allows and it has not disappointed as I have been able to use both with ease as if the router was right next to them as well as get great phone connections. I most definitely would recommend this product to extend your WiFi network at home, in-office, workshop, studio, etc.

    How to solve a networking problem with an affordable and easy-to-configure device? With the NETGEAR Dual-band WiFi Range Extender, which I purchased at Best Buy, I was able to connect all computers and printers to a location in the house where network cabling didn't reach.
