    I was looking to get a WiFi Extender for a while now and decided to take a chance. So, I went and found this for a decent price and glad I did. The Extender does it's job, the signal is stronger. The issue though is sometimes there is a disconnection, but turning it off and on again seems to take care of that issue, so far.

    I had trouble with all my devices when I was on the other side of my house away from the router, so I bought this extender and it made every device work really good once I set up the extender.

    So I bought the NetGear Universal Wi-Fi Range extender and have had great success with it. It was really easy to setup using WPS with my router (Linksys). Once that was done, it was easy to get my server in the basement to connect to it on the main floor to connect to my router/internet on the second floor. Have experienced a great bandwidth improvement over trying to connect directly to the router. My router dropped my connection frequently due to the distance away. With this device, there is no drops and smooth sailing. One problem I did have with it. Last week, I had an issue where it lost its connection to the router. It was detectable by devices but wanted to set itself up as a new thing and lost its visibility to the router. A quick unplug/replug fixed the issue though. This is the only problem I had with it. Hence, my 95 score.

    We have a two level home and with the modem being on the ground level it works very well I don't have many issues with it other than it takes a while to connect or reconnect. But the installation was very easy and the setup was effortless overall a good product.

    Easy Installation, hardest part was finding the best location for strongest WiFi signal. Once installed it has been providing WiFi to what used to be known as the dead zone.

    I am very pleasantly surprised with this product. I didn't know what to expect based on the low price. Well worth it. A little tricky to set up, (I'm not a techie). Works like a charm. Buy it!

    This was so easy to set up. We had a net gear wireless Wi-Fi router already and followed instructions and completed in just a few minutes. Signal about 35 feet away is strong now instead of weak. This 71 year old grandmother would definitely recommend this range extender. We have used for about a month with no problems.

    Bought this extender because we were having trouble getting a wi-fi signal back to our master bedroom...let's just say there's no longer an issue. Our wireless devices are always getting a full signal now and there's zero concerns with internet speeds either, thanks to this small device. Easy to set up, too. Would definitely recommend...in fact, I'm buying one for a brother who has serious wi-fi issues in his home.
