Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender's ease of use, Wi-Fi range, and signal strength. Many appreciate its quick setup, compact size, and good performance for the price. However, some experienced connection instability, and compatibility issues were also reported by a few users. The Ethernet port was a welcome feature for some.

    I was sceptical about this device. However it works as advertised keeping the signal strong at the farther end of the signals reach.

    This wifi extender was just what I needed. My wifi needed a boost upstairs. Was constantly slow or buffering. This extender eliminated all my issues and my streaming is no longer interrupted. Already recommending it to my friends.

    Liked how easy it was to set up with existing Wifi in the home. Kids like being able to use their electronic devices on Wifi wherever they may be in the house, especially the basement.

    I had to dig up an Ethernet cord and go online with my laptop in order to get it working. However, once I did get it working, it has worked very well with no problems.

    After I got it setup it was working like a charm. But the initial configuration took longer than expected. The setup page wasn't loading correctly, so instead of connecting through it wirelessly I had to connect an Ethernet cable. Which I didn't know could be done until I went to the Netgear support site. They should include this as an alternate in the setup guide that comes in the box. Otherwise, seems to be a great product.
