  • WORST NETGEAR Wi-Fi EXTENDER EVER!

    NEVER PURCHASE this product. Keeps dropping signal. Horrible service on phone. Talked to at least 3 people and transferred from one to another and finally person on last call could not hear me. She would call me back and not hear me. Spent $ 150.00 for this worthless piece of trash. WARNING: not worth your time and money! Ended up purchasing another Wi-Fi extender with another company and it worked within 5 minutes.

    After buying the Netgear AX1800 and installing it, I saw no increase in speed. I worked for over two hours with a Netgear tech, who was also stumped. I returned the Netgear AX1800 the next day. I got a full refund with no problems at all, from Best Buy. That's good customer service to me.

    Tried the NETGER - EAX15 AX1800 Wi-Fi Extender. Didn’t see an appreciable improvement. Returned it to Best Buy and bought a new NETGEAR modem and eero router instead. Seems to be working fine in our 2,800 sf house.

    I never got it to work. I spent several hours trying to connect and mesh with no luck. I thought it might have been user error, but after having several others try, we all came to the conclusion that this is not a user friendly item and is utter crap that will leave you frustrated a d ready to pull out your hair. There are also some serious security implications that make it difficult to support such a product.

    You need to be very knowledgeable of computers to install this product. I'm not, so I call the help line and got someone on the phone I could not understand. Product maybe great but instructions are really bad for someone like me.

    To set this up, it seems simple - you plug in, then when light is green, you connect to the extender wifi Netgear_Ext and then do app set up. Well Netgear_Ext does not show up at a network on any of my devics so I can't set this up. there is no solution I saw online - this issue is NOT my wifi network strength. I can try getting an ethernet cable (like it's 2010 not 2022) but why do I need old tech to set up a new device ??
