Customers are saying

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.

    I bought this to extend the range of my wifi in a large (3500 ft2), two story house. I placed this in the upstairs hallway. It greatly improved the signal to each upstairs bedroom. It was easy to install even though my wireless router was a different brand. I simply followed the instructions. My family now has excellent wireless connection on their various devices (iPhone, iPad, Kindle, and laptops). I am happy with this product.

    I bought this because our smart tv was dropping the network signal all the time. Some days it wouldn't load the apps. We added this in the wall adjacent to the TV it was easy to set up. The instructions were not helpful . It was having me do tasks that were not necessary .

    I had respectable Wi-Fi in the house but then added an outdoor generator behind the house and a water leak sensor in the crawlspace. They just would not stay connected to the existing Wi-Fi. Added the Netgear Wi-Fi Extender to an outlet in the rear of the house and badda-bing, everything works fine now. If only all of life’s problems could be so easily remedied.

    I bought the item for a family member in college. They have an apartment above landlords business where router is. The wifi in the apartment wasn't very good. I thought the extender would help. I understand there was some problems with setup. But it was figured out and they are very happy with the wifi signal now.

    I initially tried installing the extender using the primary WPS connection option, which didn't work even as close as 10 feet from the base station. Following the secondary connection option of entering the SSID and password for the base station connected immediately. The device provides a strong wifi signal throughout the entire house and has eliminated dropped connections on my laptop almost entirely.

    this product is awesome. love it's simplicity and up time. I didn't get the range of use that I was hoping for...but that might be my internet signal rather than the wireless router. You know how that works. Internet company blames the router - router blames the internet signal.
