    With my modem upstairs, I was having some trouble connecting my Smart TV to the Wi-Fi. The customer service rep at the store recommended this extender. It was easy to initialize and set up, and once placed downstairs, my TV connected immediately without any buffering issues. Since then, I've been able to connect to various streaming services without any problems, and improved the performance of my other Wi-Fi devices.

    I live in a house with 3 floors and I happened to be the last person to move in and into the 3rd floor. At the time my 4 roomates “settled” for mediocre internet speed over notnhaving any at all. One day I worked from home and could barely get web pages to load let alone download or stream anything. Buything this range extender made all the difference in the world. The internet speed is about as fast as I could ask for it, anywhere in the house. AMAZING!

    My wi-fi reception in our garage area was very intermittent. With this NETGEAR Nighthawk AC1900 is has increased the range and I am now able to use my laptop in the garage without the slowing and dead spots I was experiencing before. Had some difficulties connecting with my I-Phone at first, but finished up fine!

    We purchased this because when we watched a movie on Prime or Netflix, the movie oftentimes would not complete because it could not completely download. When we told the salesperson at Best Buy what was happening and that we got a “low bandwidth “ message, he said that we needed this extender. He was completely correct. We installed this and have not had a problem since then. Awesome product!

    Needed to extend WiFi coverage of our Netgear router to upstairs of 2800 sq ft home. No issues and works as expected. We also plug a PC into the Ethernet jack on bottom of extender and works well also. Sometimes gets a little finicky when router needs to be rebooted but is able to recover and re-establish connection rather quickly. Would recommend.

    The modem is in a room 20’ from my bedroom. However, due to weird construction, my house blocks the wireless signal to the bedroom. This booster has finally solved my woes. I can finally receive a signal in my room. Wish I had bought this years ago. Well worth the money!!

    I had a dead spot in my home Wi-Fi coverage and this product did the trick. I had considered a mesh product but was concerned that might be overkill. I already had a fast router and really only needed help in one particular area of the house. This product work perfect. The install/set-up went with out a hitch and now i have full coverage through out the house. I used the same SSID so the coverage is seamless. I would highly recommend this Netgear Extender.
