I WENT FROM 12 MBPS TO 30 MBPS. MY SISTER-IN-LAW CAN GET NETFLIX UPSTAIRS AND HER NET SPEED IS ALSO FASTER.

I was having trouble getting wireless in our back room. I plugged this unit into the wall, followed the step by step instructions, and in five minutes I was cruising.

Extremely simple setup. The WPS configuration was a breeze. Now the far end of my house has excellent wireless coverage.

Exactly what I needed

This has been just what my network needed. Just about doubled my range. Although it took a bit of moving around to find just the right spot, has worked great since.

I purchased two of these units in the last year and both of them stopped working for no reason. Just won't power up either of them! These are poor quality units which I am surprised because NetGear is usually good stuff. when they did work, coverage was spotty and they went in and out.

Had to move the unit around several times to find the best location. It works great. I can communicate with my printer that resides in a different area of my home.

Product did exactly what I intended it to do. Had trouble streaming NetFlix in my basement and now I have a strong wifi signal. Works great and easy to install.

I bought it for my server since my wife doesn't want to hear it, and it keeps the compute far away from her and still gets online.

Works out of the box, but not an extender

I bought this to extend my wifi network to provide greater range for Airplay devices. Unfortunately this does not work to extend the range of a given wifi network for Airplay purposes.
But if you just need to provide greater coverage, at the other end of your house, great product.

Works as advertized. No major issues. Took a little effort to hook up to my existing wireless system but not a fault of the device itself.

Not Reliable

It is constantly making me go through the setup process. the initial setup took five back to back tries, and it is not complicated, it just made me run through it over and over. once it was "successfully" setup, it only worked for a few minutes before disconnecting the devices from the internet and prompting for admin password and forcing me back into the setup process. I'm returning it tomorrow.

just plugged in the AC outlet and it discovered my wi-fi, registered, and created a new strong connection for the rest of the house.
