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.

    This extender works well and is exactly what I needed in the area where I installed it. I've had other extenders that don't get near the performance of this one

    Needed for 2 story house for downstairs coverage. Plugged into the wall socket at the landing of my stairs and works like a charm. No need to overspend either!

    Our house is long, and the router is at one end. Using this extender in the middle of the house has helped a lot.

    For the most part it works fine. It could totally be my house or other things in the air that is interrupting the signal but it doesn't seem to be able to stay connected with a strong signal all the time. For the most part has a green light for strong signal, but then sometimes it's yellow for weak or red for extremely weak. It stays in the same spot too. I'll probably have to get another one to cover the other parts of my house

    We had a dead spot in one room in our home. This Netgear Wi-Fi range extender was the perfect solution. It's positioned about 25 feet from the room and as a bonus we also now get great coverage on our deck.

    This product really works great. I use to hardly get a signal on my phone when I was on the far end of house away from router. Now I get a strong signal no matter where I am at in the house

    Hard To Install

    After reading the directions, the unit failed to sync with my modem. I have a very techie neighbor who had a lot of difficulty getting it to work. I believe my modem was partially at fault, but after going online he was able to get it up and running. Definitely not "plug-in and go"! I would hesitate to recommend this because of the difficulty I had. But once it's operational, it does work great.

    My computer location is at the extreme end of our home. I placed the gadget somewhere in the middle of the house. Once placed and the extended coverage provided the signal I needed. Great gadget to have.
