    Works well as wifi extender but it did very well at what i ultimately wanted... a wired end point wifi. The increase area without interference issues is sweet.

    I got this a bit ago and it's become unreliable after maybe 2 yrs(?). It has trouble keeping connectivity with the modern. Still not that bad per se as a short term solution if you're having issues though

    Works well...even for devices outdoors. I use mine to expand the signal from inside my house to a detected garage 15 feet away. I have several devices that get a boost from it, including several Blink cameras

    I have the Nighthawk and added this to for an additional boost to other rooms in the house. It works beautifully. Find the right place to put it and set it up. So easy!

    Not as powerful as I thought. Does not reach well outside as advertised. I may have to run a line and move the extender.

    The hook up to the existing router (Netgear Nighthawk RAX-80) was a little tricky, because the firmware had to be updated first. After that, it has operated seamlessly. I have a GigE connection, so I'm able to utilize that speed all over the house.

    I’m staying in a RV park at the moment and it does pick up the WiFi signal but I think it would work much better in your home with your own router.

    Big disappointment!

    So disappointed, from the time I opened it until I was ready to return it. There are no instructions, just a note to download an app and follow set up. The app wasn't always clear as to what I needed to do, I could never tell if it was truly extending my wifi or if my cameras were still trying to connect to my router. I also had many issues with connectivity for all of my other devices once the extender was set up. I had my son come over to check set up (he works in IT) and he said it looked correct, but wasn't thriled with the performance, or lack thereof. We decided it'd be best to return it, however I discovered that I was outside of the 15 day return period. What happened to 30 days?? I will think twice before purchasing here again.

    This works great now. There were a few hiccups at the beginning because my devices were either trying to connect directly to the WiFi or through the mesh, but now it’s consistent and I love that I can open the app and see what devices are connected through the mesh.
