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.

    Set-up was not easy...

    The WPS did not work on it own kind. Meaning, I have the same brand name 'Netgear' for the router and the extender, and yet this feature WPS did not work at all. To set this thing up requires some technical skills and luckily I know some. I used the web browser to set this thing up. The bottom line, it did work after the successful set-up in a hard way, but it wasn't that easy.

    Uverse wants extra money to give me a better wireless system in my house through an upgrade to my 2wire system. This one time expense has much improved my wireless situation and gives us freedom to use the computer throughout the house.

    Does what it claims, and is a very good value. Having to create a management account for setup is pretty annoying.

    Decent WiFi Extender w/ Mixed Results

    I have had mixed results with this WiFi extender. The reason we purchased it was because we were not getting the strongest connection to WiFi in our back room. This device is supposed to basically bounce that signal into our back room, and it seems to work alright, but for the most part it seems that the signal is not quite as strong as I would hope for.

    Although it's not the best item on the market and by no means performs as well as an actual wifi hotspot it gets the job done.
