Fairly straightforward set up; very strong maxed out four bar signal. Has a soft glow, so with lights out, it announces its presence.

I bought 2 of these to help with signal strength for apple tv and work computer. I am getting full strength at locations of my house. The price is a little high, but you get what you paid for.

Living in an apartment - constructed as Fire Proof - a signal from the living room to bedrooms was not working! Bought this NetGear Booster and Extender - I now enjoy apartment wide WiFi! Awesome! This works!

Does what it is supposed to! Needed a WiFi extender to reach the cameras in the garage - this did the trick. Easy setup via the Nighthawk iOS App.

It was easy to set up and could be moved anywhere once setup was completed. Goes network more range and allows you to have 4 nearby wired components for older items like tvs or older blue ray players

Needed to expand my wifi to hook up a Ring camera, The Netgear-Eax20 ax 1800 helped me accomplish this. Hookup was a little difficult, but now not only does my ring camera hook into my wifi, but also all the other devices in that dead area of my house work great, A real bargain

When I first set up the Mesh Extender it worked great but by day 2 it was barely working. After some troubleshooting, I realized I had plugged it into a power strip which I believe was messing with the system after moving it to a wall outlet it has been functioning perfectly and had a blazing fast single throughout my whole house.

I had used several other extenders, they functioned, but were difficult to setup. This EAX20 was so smooth, quick and easy. Less than 15 minutes and it was in place permanently and doing the job. It is still functioning without further re-connection issues and greatly improved the streaming services, like Zoom and Webex meetings, It provides great connection speed and the installation was upstairs from where the router is installed. Good fair price for the extender, too.

This wifi extender works great. Had a shop built but it was only 30ft from the house but got no signal inside. With the wifi extender it picks up a signal and i have full bars within the entire 30x50 shop. Love it so far.

I don’t really have anything negative to say about it. My apartment is pretty big and this thing was about to pick up signal from my other router on the other side and kept a decent speed. One pro to it is the 4 Ethernet ports on the extender. So far I haven’t had any dropouts in connectivity, but sometimes moving from one side of the apartment to the other can present issues with my WiFi connected devices. I think this is due to the fact that my devices stay connected to it when I walk to the other end of my apartment. Overall, I would suggest this to a person that’s looking for a great WiFi extender.

NETGEAR Signal Booster - BIG WINNER!!

After falsely suspecting issues with our new Vizio TV, it was a failed network connection from the beginning. A hidden modem/router in our closet (new construction) was guilty of obstructing the network signal. Following a Geek Squad tech visit, a single wall between our new TV and Wi-Fi box was responsible for the weak signal. We then turned to the Best Buy sales associate who identified the problem, saying we probably need a signal booster. Yep, that was the issue all along. We purchased the NETGEAR Range Extender to boost the weak Wi-Fi signal and lived happily ever after. So, 5 FILLED STARS for this product. I'd recommend two things: reach out to Best Buy staff or a Geek Squad specialist then go with a trusted brand like NETGEAR for your Wi-Fi network connecting solutions! Thank you (again) Best Buy Beaverton Team!!

This replaced an old wireless-N range extender... installation was quick and it worked properly... my download speed went from 44.5 MBPS on the old unit to over 500 MBPS with this new Netgear unit... I am very pleased with the performance.
