Our router is in the far corner of our house and was having trouble reaching our Nest Hello in the front of the house. It was disconnecting over and over, once we got this extender it has worked perfectly.

I was able to connect my tv to the internet with the wi fi extender. The signal from my modem upstairs was too weak to provide internet to my tv downstairs. Once, I plugged in the extender the signal was strong on all my electronics downstairs. It was easy to set up. Once set up, plug it in an outlet in the center of your home.

I have been having problem with the connection. I connected to the extender more than 5 devices. Work great! is a good booster for the router. If you have a old router installing this net gear extender you do not need buy a new router or pay more money to the provider for a new plan. I love it my new extender, easy to install.

Works great. Got this to extend wi fi range from 2nd floor to basement. Only real problem I have had was the initial set up was kind of confusing; kind of hard to tell if it was connected, but after that it worked perfectly.

Best investment ever. Absolutely enhanced area in my home where the signal was very poor/low and strengthened it to its full capacity. Definitely a must have especially if you have a dead zone area in your home where the internet connection is very weak and causes a lot of buffering.

Had trouble connecting a new laptop to my home Wi-Fi. Kept getting a message of low signal, check router. Bought the signal booster and still no improvement. Turned out to be an adjustment on the new laptop. Once made all works well. Returned the signal booster to the store for credit.

I bought this to extend wi-fi into our new outdoor area & it works great! I had trouble getting my devices to automatically connect to it, hence the 4 instead of 5 stars, but it's an easy fix to manually force the connection.

Easy to setup, it works well, but the signal fluctuates on it and it isn't steady. Thought it was my router, but that signal is steady. Still happy with the product.

It works great! Got a smart tv and put it in our basement and the internet signal wasn't good enough so we got this booster and now have great signal.

Bought this wifi extender for upstairs. Barely got one bar with only the one router downstairs. This really works excellent. Have not had any issues. It was easy to set up. No problems connecting devices such as laptops, cell phone, tablets, and wireless printer. Good value for the money!

I purchased this because I could not get any good wifi in my room to stream hulu and Netflix. I plugged this right outside of my bedroom door about a little less than half way from the router. It really improved my wifi and did not have any more streaming issues. I've been using it for over 2 years in my small apartment 1200 square feet.

This product helps but to a certain extent only. It does its job sometimes. I still highly depend on the regular wifi router. Sometimes it says it's on but no internet connection.
