Neatgear WiFi extender seems to be doing the trick. Combined with my routers range it covers 5400 sq ft and then some into the back yard. It was easy to setup as well. Basically plug and find like Bluetooth.

I didn't have any signal in the upstairs bedrooms before I installed this. I now have full strength signal and it works perfectly. Easy to install, works perfect.

So far, it seems to serve my purpose of having better connectivity in certain areas of my house where the wi-fi signal was previously weak. I don't have any complaints.

I placed this about 10ft away from where connection would start to drop. Wifi analyzing said strength was -75 near the router, in the middle it was -50 where I put this unit. When connecting to it, I was unable to get more than 1Mbps. I can pull 50Mbps easily on ethernet, and 30Mbps Wifi in the next room, but 2 rooms over was dead, this helped, but not nearly enough to be usable.
I have VERY thick walls in a home built in early 1900s.

Good 2.4 and 5 G connection at my house in every single corner since I added this. Installation is pretty basic and within 5 mins it was ready to use.

We installed this in the front of our house to strengthen the wifi signal for our Ring doorbell. Easy setup through the website, had it up and running in 5 minutes. Good deal for the money

I live in a fairly large home, and I am the only member of my family who does not get adequate wifi reception in my bedroom. I tend to watch a lot of Netflix, download large files, and use the Internet for school. I tried a few other products to increase the wifi range, but none of them did what I needed. This, however, works beautifully. It was extremely easy to set up and I now get better service using this in my room than anywhere else in the house unless I sit right next to the router. I have reached download speeds through this of 3 MB/second. The fastest I've gotten overall with my current laptop is 4 MB/second. I haven't had any problems so far with it yet. Also, I haven't tried any intense online gaming through it yet.

This is not a top-end range extender, conversely do not expect it to have the range of one. But if you are in the market for one that just gets you a few rooms over indoors, it works well.

I bought this extender thinking it would help my smart tv stay connected to Netfix but it didn't help. The Wi-Fi extender did however deliver as promised. My signal is stronger and it was easy to set up.

Fairly easy to set up. Gives the signal enough of a boost to make it usable in the upper level of a small (3 story) condo building with only one community router on the first floor.....but does not boost it to full strength. Still has occasional buffering/glitches/freezes. However, it's cheaper than paying for individual internet.

NETGEAR - Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender with Ethernet port - White
I have my router at one end of the house and an extender of another brand in the middle of the house. I could not place the original at the other end of the house as it would not extend a strong enough signal. I placed the NETGEAR at the far end of the house and now I have a strong signal to ALL parts of my house. I am assuming the signal is jumping from the router to the first extender and then to the NETGEAR. The important thing is that it is working.

Really simple and easy extender. I have a pretty small apartment so I didn’t need much. This does the job for me. The extender is only about 80 feet from my router and 2 walls separate the extender from the router. If you aren’t looking for huge coverage, this will work for you.

range extenders continue to improve and become smaller. However the pricing does not. For what is inside this little box and the volume of units I assume gets sold it is a little pricie

Excellent product, I was having problems to get signal in the farest room of my house so I bought this Netgear Extender and problem solved. Very easy to installed, all you need to do is connect it to the wifi just like you do it with your phone, create a new password and that’it.
