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.

    Overall an okay product. It shuts off every now and then and disconnects with the main router, but other than that it is a solid product.

    Not super simple to set up but does a good job extending wifi. Seems to drop signal more often than my router does.

    I had to exchange the first one I bought since it stopped working after 5 minutes. The second one worked with no problems.

    We use it for our security cameras. Works great. We didn't have to hardwire our security all the way in another room it made it so it communicated with the router in another room. Made things alot easier

    This was the ultimate solution to the problem we were having with our wifi signal. We even thought of switching our internet provider, but decided to give this a shot and problem solved! Easy to set up, highly recommended!!

    Seems to do a good job in my home. The only thing I do not like about it is the secondary wifi name that is generated with this product.

    Great product at a good price if you only use WiFi with 2.4 GHz frequency. If you need 5.0 GHz support, get a dual frequency extender.

    Great extender. Had little issue to connect to router using wps button it was timing out before I had a chance to get to main router. Other than that it works great.

    Works fine - I kinda wish it was wired so I could put the device up high and have it plugged in down below but other than that it's great

    It works like mesh router systems to extend the WiFi signal coverage. NETGEAR is a trusted brand in the networking world. There is no doubt about their reputations.

    After setting up the router I unplugged it and moved it where it would extend my network. None of my Wifi devices would pick up the new extender. I was able to move my router and set it up at the outlet it was going to stay at so I did not have to unplug it. Worked for a while until my power went out. Now I can't even reset it to try the same thing again. Very poor product!!
