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.

Even when devices are close to the extender, I was still experiencing very slow speeds even with no other active devices on the network. Shockingly enough, hard wiring into this didn't help much either.
