Seems to do what it should given the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does a good enough job given the price paid. The signal is not as strong as I think it should be but it's not bad. Install was pretty easy.

Works perfectly
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Item works perfectly. Only problem was the setup. Neither of the two methods given with the device worked. Customer service told me to connect the device to my computer with a cord and then log onto a site using the URL number they provided. This was successful. It would have been good to have this alternative provided with the device.

Works Really Well
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to extend the WiFi’s signal to my finished room I’ve the garage. I typically have 3 devices utilizing this upstairs. It’s been a complete game changer - without this I would have been forced to move my home office downstairs due to the poor signal.
