Set up was easy once i sync using the internet wizard. Did spend some time trying to get the one button sync to work before using the Internet wizard.

Easy to set up and works as expected. The occasional resets are mostly due to kids playing games that require network access for long periods of time.

I use this primarily to stream to and from my TiVo Premier. Never a single issue with bandwidth. Have had 3 iPads going at the same time. My base is also a Netgear dual band N router. It's also wired into a PS3 and the online games work perfectly.

I purchased the item as I was in need to extending my wifi network. I read the reviews and for sure they were pretty dead on. The setup for the item was very easy plus it had the option to use an app to do it easier.

Great for extending network in home

Great device to allow extension of a home network. The network names are easily identifiable using the original network name as the base followed by "2G" or "5G" depending on your network, ending with "ext" showing it is an extension of the network. The only issue is that one of the addresses, in my case the "xxx_5GEXT" did not attach to my network. While this not a real issue, it would be nice if that address did not appear in the available networks. Also, when first connecting and upon startup, the connection takes additional time to complete.

I had the geek squad guys come out to my house and they told me that this particular range extender wasn't going to do the job. Instead, They put in a Netgear X4S router. Now I have excellent signal strength. 3500 sq ft home and peak strength in every room. With my old equipment I was only getting about 35% effective strength in many locatiions in my house. I took the range extender back to Best Buy.

I needed this range extender for my new Sharp TV that I also bought from Best Buy. The wireless card in the Sharp Smart TV was very weak so it could not connect to my home WiFi. With this range extender, the TV works fine or as intended.

Got it on sale and was shocked by the quality of the product and the ease of set up. It's a Sony, so I shouldn't have been surprised. I was conditioned by poor experiences with Samsung, LG and Sharp in the past.

This thing really does what it says it should. It seems to really simple to setup, but don't try it from a phone. That might be advanced, but if the setup page is via website, then it should work. Once I fired up a laptop to resume the setup, it was still acting wonky. I don't know if the firmware was updated and the included instructions were rendered out of date, but there's a disconnect in the process.
