One that has a higher speed might work a little better, but it's good enough to get a 4 star rating. Note: Use your mobile device when you activate it.

Bought this to connect an ethernet to a device that is far from the internet router, since the device did not have wifi function. Works like a charm

This is the 3rd range extender I tried after being told others would not need a PC to setup (and they did). This unit is small, functional, and did not need a PC to setup.

I was having problems with the operation of my tablet & computer in a room at the other end of my home. I would be typing away or watching a movie, then the internet would drop out. This range extender worked and I now have a solid network connection.

Got this to extend my network. Router is in basement. This helped extend my network to the upstairs. Also nice being able to have additional network names.

The product and feature is great. But it’s just not for me and I’m not computer or gadget savvy on this to figure out by going steps and directions on a booklet of instructions unfortunately.

I purchased 3 of these Range Extenders for a charity event where WIFI was necessary to accept donations. The product worked very well without dropping a single connection the entire event! This was in a large building in multiple rooms.

I first bought a cheaper extender that didn't seem to keep a connection very well, so I swapped it out for this. I live in a 2800 sq foot home with plaster walls. The router is upstairs and extender downstairs, and now I have a solid full connection anywhere in the home.

Before the extender we'd my husband and son would report lags when playing the video game. Also, if we'd stream certain content such as church to our TV, we'd have to give up b/c of all of the stops and issues. Now everyone can be using the wi-fi without issue.

Increased speed and signal. Wish I'd gotten one a little stronger because we stream so much but overall, I'm very happy with the product.

I needed a new WiFi range extender so I went to Best Buy. I did not want to spend too much. I found this one at a great price, and it works great. I put it upstairs, and I have a great signal on that end of my house.

I purchased this extender because my wifi was very weak in the rear part of the house. This does the job, as I don't have the problem any more :)

Purchased this to eliminate a dead spot in the back room. So far connection has been much improved. Would recommend.
