I've used several of these extenders with good results. I've used them to extend wireless and to add an Ethernet device to a wireless network.

Once I figured out the instructions after the second install try (had to reset to factory settings) it worked perfectly. I think they assume if you purchase something like this that you are a computer geek. It now works without a hitch.
Since the router is in my basement office we always had an issue while trying to stream movies from Direct TV to the TV's upstairs. The repeater is on the first floor in the living room. I have full bars even on the deck and partway into the backyard on my iPad now.
I would have given this product 5 stars if I only thought about how well it works after installed. I just couldn't because of the installation instructions.

This wifi extender really worked very well. Setting it up was a breeze and worked right of the bat after setup. It made accessing the wifi in a house with a very complicated floor plan with so many walls and mutiple levels workable. Really worked well.

Needed to boost my WiFi on a second floor and it's working great. I can now stream from my Roku on that level with no issues. Before it was buffering and stalling constantly.
Mine worked so well I bought another as a Christmas present for sister and her's is working perfectly.

I purchased this so I can have internet in my backyard. It definitely gives me wifi throughout the entire backyard but not quite as fast as inside my home.

Had done some relatively thorough research on Wi-Fi extenders, and found this one to be the best of both worlds where it provided the best coverage for the price! It worked immediately, and I have yet to have any issues with the device. We have on this for over a month.

We needed to extend a wifi range in our warehouse. This did the trick. Easy to use and install. no issues. Just keep in mind the rather large footprint it will take on an outlet.

I like how easy this product links to a network. It can get over tasked though, but that is understandable since I have six devices linking to it. Good quality for the price.

Was more than easy to set up with a modem that has the sync button. Great signal now in one room we couldn't get a signal..which also happens to be the tv and game room, so my son is more than thrilled to be online now and play with his friends online. Been using for a month now without a single hiccup.

Had a very weak WiFi signal upstairs and across the house (which isn’t all that far maybe 40 feet wide entire attic). Plug it in super easy to set up and couldn’t be happier with my signal strength now. I can stream movies while in bed now

This little gem is incredibly easy to set up. Just plug it in, hit a button and voila! I now get to stream netflix in the back of my house where the reception wasn't so great.

it will work for most people that need to extend their wifi coverage. I ended up returning it and get one that can do higher speed.

Had decent wifi coverage boverage in the house but it wouldn't reach everywhere. Bought this because of the price and because I never needed an extender before and it did what it was supposed too. It got the signal where the signal lacked. Works great and it's easy to set up.

Our old wifi router has trouble getting through some walls. This device allows the signal to be relayed and gives boosted service at far corners of the house.
