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.

    Okay for the price, but you have to be pretty close to the modem or have a really good modem to begin with. I placed it in a basement and it tends to lose connection when I'm using it. It's probably meant for small areas were the modem's signal only needs a small boost, not for spaces that are anywhere near a dead spot.

    Router meets my needs well. Sometimes I have a little problem because of the doors so I had my modem moved to a more central location.

    I wanted to find a way to get a better WiFi connection in our first floor of our home for our phones. My router/modem is upstairs. Our laptop signal strength downstairs was fine but the phone signal strength was weak. This has helped tremendously! However, my wife and I had our phones (2) and laptops (2) connected to this and we seemed to have trouble. Disconnected the laptops and everything was fine. I had a little difficulty connecting it to my network but they may be due to my ignorance.

    I bought this while staying at my nieces home to boost the wireless.. Then discovered it works on any WIFI you can connect to. I spent several extra days traveling and never missed a beat with work. Greatest thing ever.

    Have a nighthawk ac2400 which is plenty for my house. But I added this in my garage to extend the range on my Ring spotlight.

    Seems to do a good job. My internet provider changes out my router and the new one is much weaker.

    Use this so that my router can reach a back bedroom where my son needs internet access for school work. This one performs that task as expected.

    This was a good way to get a little more reach out of my existing router. I had a ring with poor performance. This placed at the door fixed it.

    The router from the internet provider wasn't quite covering the house. This helped. We can watch netflix on our fire stick in the bedroom now.

    We have a longer house and this really help boost the Internet. They were very helpful inside the store and went over the best areas in the house to put it that really helped out. We haven't dropped Internet since we have purchased this, great purchase.

    Prior to purchasing this product, my home wireless signal was horrible. Upon installation and synchronization, I can now watch movies without pauses or degraded video and audio.

    My elderly mother needed help so I moved back in. I couldn't get her wi-fi to work in the back bedroom no matter what I tried. Plugged this in after connecting it per instruction and it immediately fixed things. No more streaming issues.

    We needed to improve our wireles signal in our home. This product was very simple and easy to set up. Basically you plug-in and go. However after the first couple of days, we were back to the initial problem of poor signal strength. We were encouraged to place the booster to different in different spots. Very disappointed and looking for a product that wiil do the job.

    I have a 3,000 square foot home and some areas did not get WiFi. I bought two of these and now the house, and outside of the house, have WiFi. You do have to reset your WiFi on your device to the nearest connection but once you do that they work great.

    Bottom line, for a reasonable price and few minutes of quick and easy set-up, you can greatly improve Wi-Fi reception in areas of a home (or wherever you want to put it) that are distant from the primary router.
