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 have a duplex, so my cable modem is on bottom floor but I (and guests) use upstairs often since it has living room and kitchen. Time Warner Cable told me getting this booster was best option to get better coverage in different floor, and so far I've found that to be very true.

    When the house was wired the builder did not put a drop in the family room. Running a new drop was not practical or cost efficient. We use this device as a bridge and connect the laptop to the port on the side.

    Have 150Mbps @5G down on my main router and it is useless as this device isn't 5G compatible. Even at 2.4G, I have 75Mbps down from main router and around 15M at best with this extender - even when in same room and next to it. Easy setup and would be a good value if it worked, but come on with poor bandwidth through this thing. Not good...

    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.

    Router is on second floor on west end of large house. I had a poor signal strength and many dropouts on east end of first floor where I like to sit by the fireplace and surf. Installed Net Gear WIFI extender in middle and now have strong signal and excellent performance. Very happy.

    Great buy for the money. We have a fairly large house with many dead spots so I plugged this in as far away as I could from the router downstairs and lo and behold it delivers wifi to our former dead spots upstairs. One con, had to spend a couple of hours on the phone with India for set up.

    I needed wi-fi to my detached garage and the wi-fi signal was weak. The setup was fairly simple and really boosted the signal. I haven't had any issues with dropped connection. There is also a ethernet port but I haven't used it.

    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 have a media room mancave that hasn't gotten a wireless signal ever. I bought this so i could bring my cell phone into my workspace. Not only did it help my wireless router extend it boosted my cell phone coverage too.
