    I purchased this for my Ring security camera spotlight. I mounted the ring on my shed that is 100 feet from the house. I barely had 1 bar for Wi-Fi. I plugged the extender inside my shed. I now have full service and it works great! Very easy to setup. I did take a couple of tries to connect to my router.

    Does a good job for what it is intended to do. It doesn't do everything, but it does exactly what it was supposed to. I reserve 5 stars for items that exceed my expectations.

    I brought this extender to extend the wifi in my 3 level townhome. I recently had Fios installed on the lower level of the home and i brought the extender forbthe bedrooms located on the top level. My son is a gamer and I work from home, so we had to ensure we had a strong connection throughout. Installing the extender was a breeze and we have had no interruptions since its been used for over a month now. I highly recommend and will purchase another one for my fathers home.

    This Netgear WiFi extender was ideal for us to use in our three level townhome that previously had spotty coverage in several rooms. But now there are no issues whatsoever and it was very easy to setup/install. If I can do it, anyone can! Check it out, you’ll be pleased!

    Had dead zone for wifi in house. First tried different router and no change. Some people said a wifi extender wouldn't work but it worked awesome. Would highly recommend. Set up took a bit but with a little patience was able to set up without any assistance and I am not a tech guru myself.

    Excellent product! Since I already have a Nighthawk Router the setup was simple through the app. Signal strength was improved throughout the house and connectivity remained solid with all devices we connected to.

    I wanted to be able to access my wifi from my patio, but the signal was not strong enough. This was an easy solution -- I just plugged this into an internal electrical outlet close to the patio, after synching it with my router, and the problem was solved.

    Good but having trouble with Apple devices

    Overall set up as a "mesh network" with our Netgear router was pretty easy. Overall this has worked great. The only problem is with a few Apple devices reporting duplicate IPs whenever this is plugged in. Seems like a known problem with Apple devices. We've tried a few things (locking in static IPs on the DHCP, etc.) but no luck. Unplugging this extender solves the issue. Hopefully we can resolve that soon. Otherwise a great device.

    This is very easy to set up and begin using less than 10 minutes after opening the box. Simple step-by-step instructions are included. And I think it's visually appealing with it's sleek low profile look.

    The speed (downstairs, router is upstairs) is a bit slower, as expected, but it is definitely better than what it was before. Netflix on TV and wireless for an ancient XBox are good to go now. Plugged it in at an outlet in a formal dining room, so very much out of sight/out of mind.
