    Software could be a little improved when accessing via a web browser. Other then that, the device works as designed and delivers extended coverage on both 2.4 and 5 Ghz bands.

    NETGEAR WiFi extender works as advertised. I needed to boost my signal through several walls and down one level. I tried several other brands but they did not work as well as this one.

    Before you plunge yourself into the realm of extenders, do note that extenders cut your speed and bandwidth in half. Yes Half compared to wired option. I have a 1gig fios from verizon and using hardwire option, I can attain closer to 900mbps. But can only reach around 450-500mbps if using the wireless option whether you are connected to the main router or through the extender wirelessly under the same Ssid. It also has 4 ethernet ports incase you want a wired device like music server that is nowhere near the main router.

    The wireless signal was very low in other parts of my house. The extender boosts the signal well. No hindrances. Instructions were simple. Quite pleased with the purchase.

    Set up was easy enough. The signal it puts out is very powerful and connects with full bars much farther than i expected. It has run fine for several weeks with no attention needed.

    Our cable guy recommended we get this as we were getting 200mbps when wired, but only 40-70mbps when wireless. Now no matter where we are in the house our wireless is 175-200mbps.

    If you have a decent size home or your signal might go through multiple walls. This works to keep consistent coverage. Creates a mesh network so no need to create more names.

    I'm giving this two stars because I don't know if the product is 100% at fault or if it's possible I have bad intermittent internet service. I bought this extender to provide a stronger signal to my outdoor garage cameras which were just beyond the reach of my current router. When it was working I had a solid signal. But at least several times per day the extender would become disconnected from the internet. And my cameras would also be disconnected from the internet. What good are security cameras that aren't connected? The only way to fix it would be to reboot the extender. If there are problems with my router having an intermittent internet signal, shouldn't this extender be able to reconnect automatically? It didn't. Ever. I had to return it.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I needed a better WiFi signal for the back of my house, pool area and pool house. I decided to try an extender instead of a mesh system and partnered this with my Comcast router/WiFi, which was located in the front of my house. It did really well to extend the WiFi strength where I needed it, which was for the rear of a 3000 sq ft house, through the pool area and out to the pool house behind it. Worked great, but next time I’ll go with a full mesh system when more systems have WiFi 6.
