    Extends strong wifi signal to a corner of my 4000 sq ft home that otherwise receives a weak or no signal at all from cable provider router. Very easy to install

    This item was a must for us we have tried many diffrent wifi range extenders but they don't like our crappy frontier routers. With this I can connect ethernet then plug in on the other side of the house some times it does drop signal but it doesn't happen all the time. If you have tried range extenders and they have been an issue try this.

    I was looking for a way to get internet upstairs. Our signal strength was very low! After plugging this unit in and about 5 min of setup my internet signal dramatically improved ! I can now stream movies on my bedroom whereas before I could not. Great product and works like a charm. Solved my problem without adding any problems!

    With this network extender I have a signal even outside the house, more than 300 feet away from the router. I've had zero issues and it was easy to setup!

    I purchased this to use in a house where the modem and router are upstairs, speed at router is 5mbps with Cat5e, and there are usually 6-10 devices on the WiFi at one time which means beyond slow dial up internet. This allows me to have my own personal WiFi network and one wired connection directly into the router through the electrical wiring in the house. I always have 5mbps in the basement. Not sure what max speed this is actually capable of through house wiring due to incredibly slow internet from provider. But for my situation it is great.

    Looked to expand my "Whole Home Coverage" Panorama system with Cox Cable Communications. Their system had a few "Holes". Not wanting to pay their $75 hook up fee and $5 a month rental fee, I checked around and found this to work. I tried another Next Gear that didn't hard wire, and I couldn't ever get it to communicate. This worked flawlessly. Right out of the box, no lengthy phone call with someone on another planet and time zone. Put it in my grage so I could get my Geni Garage door opener to communicate with the web. Works like it said it would.

    We needed to expand our internet range and already had a super router, outgrown house is long. So we tried this and it works great. One end plugs into router and a wall plug, other end plugs into an outlet where you want to expand to. The added WiFi availability is a great bonus!
