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.

    I bought this WiFi Extender to make sure that it covers all corners of my house. I was so wrong. It is easy to setup but has very low coverage. I had to return this product and bought a TPLINK Extender for almost the same price and it worked perfectly fine.

    This product works well at my house. My router is in the basement of a larger ranch house. Having this device in my living area gives me great reception all the time which I previously didn't have.

    I purchased the extender so I could get internet out in our screenhouse where it was sketchy and it does the job. It also fixed a problem I had in the far corner of the family room in the lower level.

    I bought this to get better WiFi in my office upstairs. It works great. My phone and laptop perform much better when I use the extension instead of the main network downstairs.

    Best invention ever! Where we lived the WiFi was too far from the room and would reach. After we connected it the WiFi started working like we had it connected to the box itself. Super fast

    Here's the only review you need to read. Does It extend the network? Yes. Will it prevent buffering on video streaming on an iPhone? No. Will a laptop work well with? No. So in short, if your looking to surf the web it's great. Video, it works but don't expect perfect. As for my brand new Lenovo , it kept kicking the ext and wanting to connect with the Motorola Surfboard I bought from best buy.

    My FIOS router was not reaching my back yard. Plugged this into my kitchen outlet and now I get my internet all the way to my neighbor's fence. No problems so far (took some effort to set it up though).
