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 read online reviews because my Ring camera was too far from the house to pick up the WiFi. I bought this in hopes it would work and it works great. It connected immediately to my Ring on both sides of the house. My router is far from one of the rings and it reaches it very well.

    I néded another wireless access point quickly after installing a wireless thermostat at the office. This unit worked flawlessly for the remote access I required.

    Very happy with the product. It was very easy to setup, and was as simple as plugging in and pushing a button to sync up to our wireless router. We have had it now for over two months and it works great. We had another competitor product prior, and the competitor brand was difficult to setup and required constant re-setting of the device. This unit had none of that and works great in homes with multiple levels.

    This extender has done what I needed it to do: get a stronger wifi signal to the second floor of the house. Setup is easy 1,2,3 all listed out in the instructions. Its stability all depends on the router though, so if something goes wrong there, you have to reset the wireless on the extender again which takes less than 2 minutes. I have noticed that when using video calls like Skype, the internet goes in and out and might drop the call-this only happens occasionally though and it may be the faulty router's fault. For the price and the functionality of this, I'm satisfied with the results.

    Our primary Fiber Optic Wireless Modem wasn't putting out enough strength in our 4000+ sq. ft. house. My wife and I both work from home and need a strong signal wherever we are. Without this device, we would disconnect when carrying our laptop around the house. Now we both connect to this unit on a daily basis as we NEVER lose a signal. Superb product !!

    I really thought it was going to be no good for my application, garage in the back of the house facing the alley. I needed wifi to reach that distance for my wireless CCTV. None of the high end modems or routers reached that i could afford until i bought this item. Doesn't require ground power to be the same as the router and the range is very long! at least 100ft. it reaches!

    I planned on buying a cheaper alternative online but waited until the last minute and had no choice but to buy one in the store. I am really glad that I did because I am really happy with the device and it does what it claims. If I needed to I can get my wi-fi connection about a 75 yards away. It sets up a completely separate connection and uses your original password. Love It!!!

    I bought this to extend my wifi range inside my home. Once I figured out the proper distance range between this device and my wifi router it worked perfectly. It made both floors of my house have perfect wifi connectivity, and the LAN line outlet allowed me to hardwire directly to my TV for movie streaming. I highly recommend this product.

    We were doing renovations at the house so we had to move the router to the living room. The wifi reaches most of the house but my room was the only one getting a weak signal so i was looking for a wifi extender and this one was the cheapest. Now i can finally get wifi in my room.

    We bought this for my boss so he could have better wifi in his home office, which is not near his router. Pretty easy to set up and provides a stronger signal than what he had before, so well worth the money.

    Running a gaming rig at the edge of the router's range, so I was getting ridiculous lag. Installed this and it was immediately better. Taped it to the wall 2 feet above my desk, and all lag disappeared. Quick to set up as well.
