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.

    Pretty easy to set up but as far as range extension is concerned it hardly does the job. Without it, the router range is about 600 sq ft. With it operating, there is about a 20 more sq ft coverage. Hardly worth the expense. It also does not work with the Spectrum router. I actually had to buy a Netgear Nighthawk router to make it work

    Easy to set up but that’s the only good thing about this product. Doesn’t increase the range all that much and keeps randomly knocking every device that is connected to my network off causing me to have to re-connect them.
