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.

    The Netgear extender creates a new access point that is joined to your existing wireless router. You have to manually switch to the network ID that has the best reception. In my situation I didn't need the bandwidth provided by AC. Wireless N had plenty of speed. This extender allows me to browse the web or stream video to devices I was unable to reach with my wireless router alone.

    This worked better than we thought it would. It helps my son get internet in his trailer right behind our house. Was easy to set up.

    Good product for the cost. I wanted to have a more consistent connection in back yard and around pool. For a very reasonable cost I added about 50 feet to our range.

    The extender is working fine so far. I just needed to extend the wifi to the farthest room, and it accomplished that.

    I use this to help extend the range of my WiFi out to my shop. It took a few tries to find the best location for it.

    Works as advertised. Our router is at one end of a long narrow condo and wifi was sometimes difficult to get at the other end of the condo. This device helps alot. I do have to remember to check settings on my ipad and select our _EXT device when I want to use it.

    This works great and allows a better WiFi connection with speed for our devices. Our current router is in the basement so by having this upstairs we get a better connection for multiple devises at one time

    easy to install if your router is netgear, but must be located equally between the router and your computer.

    It bridged the gap between my router and a wireless camera and seems to be working fine. Range is just something you will have to try.

    The setup was not as straightforward as stated, It took me a while. At parents house with Xfinity. Each person (guests to the home) had to sign in and it was very confusing. Finally got it working and all was good.

    Works as expected. Needed to extend range due to the inability to move the location of the main router in my house. This extends for increased range in the other half of the house.
