We have a long ranch-style house with plaster walls in both the basement and first floor, so even with the largest range wireless router the signal did not reach all the first floor rooms. Plug the range extender into an outlet as close to the area you want wifi in that still has a signal (even a really weak one) and it boosts the signal to full strength and extends it.
The only thing to know is that it is actually using the signal to create a different network. So in some parts of my house the extender network has a strong signal, but in the area nearest to the original router the extender signal is weaker. So I will join one or the other depending on which part of the house I am using my iPad or iPhone in.

Our Internet would cut out on one side of our house quite often. We especially had problems with our Apple TV losing connection for our TV on that side of the house. Since putting this in our house, it has extended the range quite well and has rarely lost connection. Still has lost connection a couple times, so giving it four stars instead of five. But definitely a great improvement for the price of the product.

I was having trouble getting my laptop to work in the TV room until I bought the Netgear extender. Now I have two, one in the master bedroom and one in the TV room, in addition to my wireless router. This gives me access all through the house (3500 sq feet) as well as outside in the pool area from all my wireless equipment. Chromecast loads my movies and videos extremely fast now.

Works great extending wifi range into our garage and throughout our 2200 square ft.home. It was easy to hook up to our router and laptop. Ipod immediately picks up the wifi signal. It does exactly what we were wanting to accomplish. when we bought the extender.

Pairing to router was super easy and quick. Was having connection issues with smart tv in bedroom dropping signal. No issues since we’ve put this in. Well worth the price to eliminate that frustration.

Ingave this 4 stars because I had to call the manufacturer. When i installed this my network was saying partially secure. I had to get them on the phone for 20 minutes while they helped me correct it. Seems to be working fine.

I used it during a recent trip to France and it worked perfectly across two thick walls/doors and a 3-meter hallway in-between.
Setup was a bit of a challenge as I had to use my laptop due to the lack of WPS button on the French wifi router. But the online instruction was very clear and helpful. I definitely recommend this product to everyone. .

This wi-fi extender is quick to set up and easy to use. I have it in a back bedroom for the rear of the house, where our wi-fi signal isn't as strong. The connection on our devices will choose the signal that's strongest.

This thing does the job it's meant to. I've had some issues with the connection at times, but a simple restart seems to fix it.
