    Used this access point to replace a range extender. Easy to set up. The signal flows through two circuit breaker panels without issue. It improves my wifi reliability and speed at the far end of my house. The LAN option also improves the streaming speed to my smart TV.

    Overall a pretty good product, but I should have done a bit more research. Signal strength is not quite what I had hoped but still gets to multiple devices without a problem.

    This NETGEAR WiFi Powerline Access booster is not performing as expected. Its indicator lights show it synchronized with the transmitter plugged into the network modem, but my TV internet access is not improved at all!

    Occasionally the wifi does not perform well but mostly it works great in a room that barely received wifi signal prior to installing this product

    I purchased this to get a more stable network further away from my router. And for that part it works. I've expanded the internet access to the furthest corners of the house.. My only issue is the red light that means the connection is less than 80MB comes on frequently. I've even moved the AP to different places trying to get a more consistent speed. So not sure if this is the best option. But for the most part it seems to work and extra devices stay connected, was just hoping for more consistent network speed.

    Using house wiring the kit picks up signal in rooms blocked by walls and appliances. Improves reception farther away from router.

    I had an area where I like to sit for meetings. The WiFi signal was low leading to interruptions I video conferencing. The power line adapter really helped create access so that I can hold meetings without connection issues.

    Initially, I was looking for a product that would eliminate buffering on a blu-ray player over an existing wireless network, and the power-line ethernet adapter solves that issue. It seems to work well with hard-wired components that need a better signal. The wireless access point is good, however, I wish it would just increase the range of the existing network, instead of creating an entire, separate network. You might just be better off upgrading your existing router and/or ideally, hardwiring all your components.

    This works way better than a wifi extender. Not as fast as when you are connected to the main router. But this device does its job and creates a reliable extension to your home network. It provides hardwire and wifi options helping cover that one wifi dead spot a lot of us deal with.

    I was skeptical that this would work for me, but it does increase the strength of our WiFi. It boost it enough to stop all the buffering that was previously happening while watching shows using our Amazon Fire Stick .

    This wifi extender works great....for the most part. Sometimes the signal will drop and pickup again. But works perfect when hooked directly to a TV with an Ethernet cable.

    Great way to hard wire your electronics without being near the router. Plug it into the outlet nearest and it puts out wifi or you can hardwire.

    Worked great for wired connection to PS4 in gameroom to reduce load on wireless. But it requires you to plug directly into router and wall outlet so can't use power strip

    I was so happy with it, that I bought it again for a family member. It helped me enormously extending the wi-fi connection. At the begining i had some issues with the first installation but customer support is great, knowledgable and very very patient.
