Customers are saying

Customers frequently mention the Nighthawk AC1900 Dual-Band Wi-Fi Range Extender's impressive range, ease of use, and strong signal strength as significant advantages. Many also highlight the straightforward setup process and generally positive performance, leading to improved streaming and WiFi coverage throughout their homes. However, some users experienced connection issues, and a few reported compatibility problems with certain routers. The price point was also noted by some as a potential drawback.

    The AC1900 range extender was purchased to extend the wi-fi coverage of my R7000 router. I now have coverage throughout the house.

    Can't really tell if extender worked or not. Did not increase wifi speed, and some of my wifi devices had trouble connecting. Won't be using any other extender at this time, cause don't think any would work.

    Unit works well...did not reach far enough to suit my purpose. Industry needs to standardize the distance parameters so that consumers know how far units will reach.

    I bought an AC 1900 Nighthawk Router to add to my cable modem, but with three floors, still didn't have enough signal. The BB salesperson suggested that I add the Nighthawk 1900 Extender to help increase signal strength. I still haven't figured out how to get it to work correctly, but will be contacting the Geek Squad for help.

    Ran set-up with WPS, which was pretty effortless and seemed to go well. The problem is once the extender was plugged into new location several of the devices that had been on the network could not connect. It appears password is not recognized. So, as it is,the extender is much worse than worthless. Netgear provides free support for a limited time. The problem is that it took 45 minutes to connect to telephone support. He could not help, but that was my fault because I have mobility trouble. We'll keep trying.

    Since I changed muh router/modem it has been a bit finicky and will not let muh ring system connect. Muh wife said it would probably work if I ate more salads and exercised? That's her answer to everything...
