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 wifi extender works way better than I thought it would. Plus you have the option to turn it into an access point.which I think works wonderfully. Definitely recommend.

    Exactly what I was thinking would work and it did. I'm actually using this past the recommended area and I have no problems other than some latency because it is doing more than it is supposed to be capable of. Great product, setup wasn't too difficult, but could be more simply explained. In four months I have only had to reset connection on the extender once.

    If you have any areas within your home that you don’t have wifi, this extender will end that. No more issues with not having wifi when needed. I highly recommend this product

    Good wifi extender, easy to set up, but every few days I have to unplug it and reset it. Can't figure out why. I have tried plenty of hours trying to fix it. Talked to netgear , no help at all. Finally I just gave up. Reset it and it works. Probably should have bought the better model. Oh well

    I have placed this in my garage to extend our WiFi signal for a smart garage door opener. It does the job. Only downside is the WiFi network is separate from the main network. This means if I’m in my garage with a weak signal to my main router, it won’t kick me over to the extender signal automatically and I need to manually connect to the extender on my device.

    Excellent wi-fi extender. The Ethernet female connector makes it versatile and adaptable for multiple situations. I had one before I bought this one for my daughter and it worked as expected and solved her connectivity issue. A wi-fi ready media box needed connection away from the router in a different room where a cable was not convenient and this plug in gadget with a cable solved the problem.
