Great product. It has definitely helped with speed! I no longer have to reboot my gateway to watch Netflix and Hulu. I would definitely recommend this product to give you that extra “kick” with speed for your home. Easy to install as well.

I didn’t have internet in my bedroom until this, so it gets the job done even though I feel there are probably better faster ones this was most price efficient

This seems to be working well with my XFinity Router. I haven't had it drop a signal, and my internet works just as fast as my desktops do. So Far So Good! "Thumbs Up"

Our Wi-Fi signal was very weak at the back of our house so we decided to get a range extender. Read reviews of many products and this unit seemed to have the best ratings for its price. Very easy to set up--just follow the directions and it will be a breeze. Works great- have a strong signal throughout our house.

Works really well and easy to set up. I placed extender between the router and upstairs gaming system and it picked up the signal with no problem. No complaints so far.

This devise does work once you have it properly set up. I ended up calling tech support and was walked through it with no problem. I seem to have a home with dead zones and this has helped extend my range.

Bought this unit because I couldn't get good enough signal for Netflix etc. on my 3rd floor because router was in basement. I put this on 2nd floor and it solved my problem instantly. It took less than 5 min to have going out of the box! Now I have full signal on 3rd floor and even further outside! Definitely would recommend and buy again.

Works great; extends my Wi-Fi very effectively. The plug-and-play installation (easiest way) is not compatible with my U-verse router, so I couldn't use that. But the unit has a very good installation guide; so set-up was still fairly simple from my desktop computer.

The unit was very easy to setup. The instructions are simple to follow and really are quite easy. I set up two units and now I have extended range from my front yard to my back yard.

I got the netgear WiFi extender to get coverage over the whole house as we have too many walls around. The extender works great very easy to setup as compared to others and gives the due coverage over whole house.

Worked great for the first few weeks, but now it sporadically goes out and makes me sign into the net gear web page. A minor inconvenience since it comes back, but I can’t justify a higher rating due to this minor problem.

I've tried other wifi extenders that costs more and supposed to provide a stronger signal and wider coverage but they didn't work. This one does. Very easy to set up as well.

Just short of perfect, so 4.5 would be better.

For the money, you can't beat it. I have to reset it about once a month, as in unplug and then plug back in, but by and large it performs far better than I expected for the money.
