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.

    This is a good product with decent range extension, but it does not work for me. If you already have one range extender on your network, this cannot be added as a new extender.

    It is okay. We have had to move it a couple times in order to allow it to reach a room with 20 feet of device. Not worth the extra money to supposedly get get extra capacity.

    Repackaged used & faulty wi-fi equipment

    I bought this as sealed new unit and went to configure it and it had someone else’s network name on it, not the new default SSID network name. Unit had a hard time picking up the base main network unless it was nearly next to the transmitter. I am an IT pro that installs commercial equipment and this failed miserably. BB only has a 15 day return policy so we ate the unit. This unit was re-packaged faulty used wi-if equipment. This is just another reason I use commercial wi-if equipment in my home. Very Deceptive on Netgears part. I cannot in good faith recommend this nor will I buy retail junk again. I originally bought this to bring an ethernet connection to a industrial piece of equipment for a tech who flew in from the UK to configure the industrial equipment what a disaster this was. All other devices around the equipment had a strong wi-fi signal from the main wi-fi network except the Netgear extender. Was red with no connection. Very costly mistake, never again will trust retail junk or manufacturers like this.
