Appears to have improved wi-fi range in our home. My wife & I are pleased with the results the Netgear Wi-Fi range extender has delivered.

Product was easy to set up and provides a little extra boost to extend your wifi signal. Adding the extender gave me about 20 extra feet of wifi range that was needed for outdoor use.

Purchased one of these from another company and the setup was a headache. Purchased this one from Netgear and had zero problems. The product is very easy to setup, and if you have WPS you can use that and link it to your internet with a press of a button. I would definitely recommend this product.

Able to get a better wifi signal in the back room, and also indicates what the strength is with the lights.

This product added coverage to another room behind a main barrier wall. The extender allowed my son to play with less lag without purchasing a new router.

We purchased this because we did not need 3 pods which was the only choice from Xfinity. This works amazing! Easy to set up, especially if you have a router with a WPS button. Connect it to your wifi then just plug it jn where you need it!

purchased to extend wifi in house and it does a good job at that. There is a bit of a lag when connecting at first but is smooth sailing after it is established.

This extender was working well but not doing the job I needed, my house is 2,000 sq. ft. And I guess for that type of space you need one that says 10,000 sq. Ft. Specially if 2 flr. I would always recommend the one with a bigger frequency.

I should have acquired one long ago. Bought a new model rather than refurbished because of reviews online about no support. Glad I did. Easy to follow instructions made unit plug and play. I do have a NetGear router. Mounted the extender in centrally located bathroom above countertop. Heighth may be what makes for such good connection.

I use this primarily in my man cave that's on the second story. Works for gaming, streaming Netflix and hooking up smart devices. Network can be renamed to your preexisting network name to ensure all devices communicate with my SmartThings hub. Ethernet port available to run a direct connection

I bought this for my mom, set it up within 10 minutes and she was connected. The only drawback is that only 2 or 3 devices could connect to it a time

Used the Range Extender to get an ethernet cable plugged into a DVR that does not support wireless. The extender paired easily with the modem and the DVR now has internet access.

Absolutely marvelous solution to a BIG problem. Just plug it in & bingo, my computer works like the router/modem are right next to it.
I could not be more pleased...especially after reading the instructions & not taking the offer my cable company made...$60 for instructions on installation! You just push a button & relax!

I needed to extend the range of my Wi-Fi router at my office. I saw this range extender on sale and figure I'd try it out. It works perfectly. You plug it in, and it pretty much sets itself without any input.. Of course you do have to link to the extender on your computer, but that's a snap.

I was experiencing problems with frequent dropped connectivity. I bought this product with hopes of eliminating that problem. It cost a little more than I was wanting to spend, but the bottom line is that it delivers and I am a satisfied customer. I have not experienced any connectivity problems since the purchase and installation.
