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.

    After installation of a Neatgear wireless router in a very large home it was necessary to install an extender. The installation was effortless. This extender also provides a visual display of what is happening and you do not have to bend over and strain to figure out what it is doing.

    Just what I needed to extend the Wi-Fi in my home. This was really helpful when we all began to work from home. Netgear is my go-to for extenders.

    I cannot believe we have gone through so many routers and had multiple technicians in our home trying to get the wifi to work when all i had to do was purchase this little gem and plug it in. It took about one minute! Now my wifi works perfectly from one end of the house to the other.

    Didn’t connect at all with our Vivint security system and they recommended this exact extender. Had to return it since I couldn’t use it.

    It works as describes. It is not as fast as a mesh system, but nor does it have the mesh system's cost.

    Make sure you read the packaging. The Wi-Fi Range Extender has decreased download speeds. I got it working but due to the reduced download speeds, it not much use to me as I can still reach the Wi-Fi.

    I have my router in my upstairs office. I plugged this in downstairs after I synced it up. It works perfectly. I used it for the Ethernet plug to connect a security camera system. No connection issues and provides a smooth video feed on my iPhone.

    I live in a 3 story town home, and the wireless never fully reached the 3rd floor. This extender boosted the signal so I get full bars no matter where I am in the house. It allows enough data through to stream shows via Netflix without a single buffering.

    My house is fairly large and the wifi signal from my wireless router would not reach the bedrooms at the opposite end of the house. The Netgear range extender was easy to install and provides a full strength signal at the furthest point in the house.
