Not worth it
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I never recommend extenders unless absolutely necessary. Most extenders force you to create a new network and I don't believe devices are smart enough to auto-switch yet. I purchased this one because it claimed to join the same network with same password and ID. That part was not as simple and straight forward, the app, still has language indicating that it wants to create a new/different network. I looked passed it and still attempted to use, but while the signal claimed to be a strong one, it was incredibly slow. I returned it to store, not worth it. And this is an expensive one, not worth it. My stance is still "never use extenders" unless it's for a specific project/necessity. I would recommend a mesh wifi system.

Frustrating and Ineffective
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a waste of money. Setup was OK using the app, but the app’s instructions are inconsistent with Netgear’s online guidance and this is sloppy and confusing. The device stays very hot, there’s no improvement despite all efforts, and the device simply does not stay findable via its app. It is incapable of working with more than a single device when it does connect after much effort.

Dog Tier Customer Support
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Within 3 months of purchasing this product, it failed. Which happens. The problem I have is with their support. I operate a business, and I paid the $40 to have this overnighted - which their customer service agent told me was an option. The next day, they contacted me acting like this was some high-tier, gift-from-god product and it could NOT be overnighted because its 'too valuable'. The ONLY option was to do standard, which is 2 weeks. I refuse to ever support a business that does a bait and switch, especially with their support services. Beware ever purchasing or supporting an awful business like Netgear.
