    Able to connect two AX1800 WiFi 6 Mesh Extenders

    After some initial issues with connecting two AX1800 WiFi 6 Mesh Extenders (EAX15), I was able to research a work around. Once I took one extender, that was already set up, offline I was able to set up the set up the second extender. Both extenders are now working very well with my AX1800 WI-FI Mesh Extender (EAX20.)

    My husband wanted to eliminate lag during online gaming. This small, simple plug-in device gave him the boost he needed to fix the issue.

    This made a HUGE difference in our house! We plugged it in halfway between our modem and my son's game room and he has had zero internet issues with his game lagging or stopping.

    Does the job well!

    My son required a stronger internet connection to stream his video gaming. We had a smaller netgear Wi-Fi extender but it wasn’t good enough for him to stream without being choppy. It’s plugged in under his desk and directly connected to his computer. This one works perfectly.

    So far- great

    So far, great. this replaced a 14-year-old extender. Set-up instructions were sub-par - typical of most technology - seemingly written for tech savvy folks. On-line chat and phone tech help was great.

    I have a 2 story home with the router on the bottom floor. I was having issues getting good reliable signal to portions of the top floor. This product has resolved those issues so far.

    Did not improve my signal strength and BestBuy refuses to accept a return. Even tried setting up as a separate network and it was no improvement . Buyer beware!!!
