    We moved in to a 2story home and coverage was awful upstairs. This was an easy edition to my wireless systems and works perfectly.

    The extender works as expected however the wifi signal is periodically dropped. It will reconnect in a matter of seconds. I installed this to boost the signal to support my security cameras and it is working as intended. The extender has been fully operational for 1 month so far.

    Works wonderful in my split lvl home, everything has amazing signal. A little difficult to set up at first. Requires patience. Advance features and getting lines split and set up and running 5g requires advance efforts.

    Our screen porch & garage are detached from our house and I've tried other cheaper extenders and the powerline extenders and they didn't work good enough to get us a strong WiFi signal, I was getting zero 0.83 mpbs with those. This Netgear Nighthawk Mesh Extender (EX8000) is able to get us the same speed as we have in the house (approx 80 mbps download) so we can easily stream hulu live TV etc using our apple TV device. You get what you pay for!

    I absolutely love this thing. I love the tri-band wife mesh ability. If you are familiar with other extenders, you have a different display/wifi network name that you have to connect to and create (e.g. NETWORK.EXT). This extender gives the option to just boost the overall wifi strength without having to create a separate network. Plus the fact that it has ethernet ports is a plus. It's fast and sleek as well, totally recommend

    Love that this allows everything on Wi-Fi to use one name so you don't have to change between Router and Extender!! I found this one a little slower than my previous extender, but it could be my older computer!! Everything else seems to be great and a lot less buffering now!!

    Had this Extender for approx. one month now and have found it fit for purpose. It has improved Wi-Fi range for the whole house and has the ability to enable one Wi-Fi Name making the connection to each device seamless. Connecting the device to the router was a breeze to boot...

    I have a Netgear AC1900 cable/modem that gives poor wifi strength signal to mu upstairs office. Not really that far away but I guess floors, walls and furnace closet don’t help. Bought this extender and it does help, not full strength signal but enough to help. Easy setup.

    So with everyone at home during the pandemic, I noticed that everyone's internet was at full bore and overlapping our home (using some wifi tracking). It was suffocating our signal, so I did some research and found this baby. I usually HATE extenders - they are usually not worth it. This is definitely a "get what you pay for" device. Smooth as silk, never needs to be rebooted. Ring cameras run like silk on it. Perfect buy.
