This extended our wifi very well. We put it in an upstairs bedroom while our router was downstairs. We now have great reception throughout the house.

I purchased once before and this is my second purchase. I use it for the VOIP phone at work, therefore I do not have to run ethernet cable over the ceiling. Very nice product and reliable connection.

I purchased this for my father. The WFI was set up at the other end of the house and by plugging in this extender we could finally get reception at the other end of the house. Very happy with this product.

This is a good alternative to purchasing a wireless access point or relocating your existing WIFI router. Its easy enough to configure. Once configured place it in a location between your existing WIFI and the location where you have a weak WIFI signal. It works great for me.

The product works great; however, it is difficult to set up. In the past many apple products are not met to be easy to set up like in the past. I had to pay for tech support to set it up correctly. Maybe it was windows 10 that added to the difficulty. So I am given this a lower rating because I had to buy for addition support to get it up and running correctly.

I needed to get internet into a separate building for one computer and didn't want to run new wires for it. I could pick up the wireless signal just on one wall of the building and this little device took that and spread it through the whole place. Super easy to set up and you would never know you are on a booster signal.

We have an office upstairs and use a Mac laptop. The wifi was not working very well (located in the audio/video cabinet on the first floor) so we talked to a very knowledgeable sales consultant at Best Buy who told us about adding a range extender. We checked out the available choices and decided on the Netgear product. The 4 star rating instead of 5 is because there are times that we still have spotty reception upstairs, but overall the wifi reception has improved quite a bit. So, not perfect, but much better than before.

Great product for the price. Instructions that are included are great and specific to get you to start using your purchase. It increased the range of my router to my room where I was getting a low signal.

The extender was used to extend our wireless signal to the opposite side of the house from the main router. It was easy to set up. I just followed the instructions, and the lights on the device showed me the progress; the device essentially set itself up. Works flawlessly.
