The instructions were easy to follow and I was up and running in less than 15 minutes. This has been running about a month and I had one instance where the access pt lost internet connection, but unplugging and plugging back in solved the problem.

I have tried several different routers and extenders trying to get a signal to the location. This product works perfectly and I have checked download speeds and it has not been compromised.

I've been purchasing Netgear Powerlines for my clients for years, and they just keep getting better. Adding integrated wireless has made them all the better - no need to add an additional router. Set up is as easy as plugging them in.

Died after 7 days

Worked well - really well - for 7 days, then it stopes functioning. Despite numerous calls to texh support, they were unable to revive the unit. Couldn't even get it to do a factory reset. Bought a second unit - it works intermittently. Again, tech support is at a loss.
This product is just too much trouble. Great concept, but poor execution.

I lived in an older home with plaster walls, and receiving signals from wireless gateway proved difficult as the desktop/main computer was some distance from laptops and Ipads.
Plugged it in, connected and VIOLA! No more struggles!

After purchasing a different wifi extender (which didn't work ), I looked at the best buy reviews and selected netgear. It works and is very easy to install and use, even on the latest io7 cell platform .

This extender required a computer to download set up. My use was for an iPad in a location that did not have a computer therefore I was unable to install and use. I'm sure this product would have worked well for another application.

Geek Squad installed this & it appears to do what it is suppose to do just fine. We purchased this because they told us we needed this to get full use of our 4K TV & so far. so good.
