    Had a lot of problems with my ex7300 so decided for something better. Also critical as my office has spotty connection. After installing this, connections in my whole 3000 square foot house was perfect.

    It does pick up my 5Gwifi signal from our router, and extends it to the opposite side of our house (approx 1000sq ft away). I've never been able to login to Netgear (through the box when wifi is out OR the actual website) so it's useless on it's own, and not any different than the extenders Frontier installed free. Not sure how much I paid for it - $200 - $300? Not a fan.

    This has not only helped us gain speed like we wanted but it also gave us more distance. I can now be outside in my shop and get access and my cameras at my road are hooked on it working as well.

    I bought this product because I didn't have enough wifi signal in my garage to setup Roku on my TV in garage. With the wifi extender I am getting excellent coverage in the garage and outside the garage for my wife's cell phone.

    I needed a wifi extender to cover driveway and front door cameras. I positioned it in the middle of the house closest to outdoor devices. EX8000 Gave us a wide range to cover all devices.

    I’ve had this for about a month - I use it commercially. Strengthens my 2 and 5ghz bands very strong. I highly recommend. However, don’t set up through WPS, signal remains weak - set up through your network.

    Replaced an Asus extender with the nighthawk. Huge improvement in performance and a backhaul link at 975 mb. Multiple connections back to the router provide multiple active client connections. Easy to setup and reliable.

    As long as you follow the installation instructions it is simple. Some bad reviews, I believe, were due to trying to take shortcuts to install. It is key to have the unit near the Router for a quick start-up.

    We struggled to get a stable internet connection in some rooms of our home. We added the extender midway between the router and the problem areas of our home, and no longer have internet connectivity issues!

    Had a little issue during set up but was able to circumvent the problems and this device extended a strong WiFi signal to a far back bedroom in an apartment complex. Worked GREAT with the mesh set up.
