I have one in my shop about 150' from the wifi router, it regenerates a great signal.  One in the back room of the house is only 35' away generates an ok signal but goes through a brick wall and a frame wall at an acute angle.  At least that's the only reason I can see for it not being as good as the one in the shop.

I received this extender today, and set it up with the router using WPS.
I took it out to the back porch where I had a poor signal, connected by phone to the (wifiname)-EXT, and got full wiif reception.  Not only did I get it on the porch, the back yard is covered, and beyond.  The side, and front area is covered for an equial distance.
Needless to say,  I am thrilled with this product.

My router is above me in my compuyter desks' bridge of bookshelves at the west end of our home. My wife has a refurbished commercial desktop on her desk in the girl cave at the east end of the house. THIS bridges the gap like a champ, both sending and snagging the signal with 5 bars- the prior dongle had 3 bar, the one before that had one bar, with some dropped packets. The little unobtrusive ones a fine for being in the same room as the router or wifi hotspot, but for a good rech you want this joytoy.

BUT

Not compatible with a rspberry pi without some deep sorcery first. Windows however it's cherry.

I am very happy with the results that I got with this amplifier. I am using it to boost reception for QAM channels. The cable comes into my house in the basement and is then split 4 ways (1 to an internet modem and then 3 TVs). The longest run is to my 2nd floor where a few channels have such a weak signal that they were unwatchable. After replacing my original 4 way splitter with this splitter/amp all my channels are much stronger. One of the unwatchable channels went from a signal strength of 10 to 97 (range of 0-100). I now have great reception on all of my channels.
I also did an internet speed test and my results were higher than what I pay for, which is usually the case, but there was no negative impact to internet with this amp.

This is simply a great product.  I bought it to extend a weak WiFi signal at a camping resort.  I wanted it before spring to make sure it was what we wanted and that it worked fairly well.  It exceeded my expectations.  Plug it in, hit the reset, wait for the lights and go!  Have a tablet or smartphone nearby and follow the instructions.  It creates a new SSID based on your home or other WiFI with "_EXT" to differentiate between the two.  You can keep the same security settings and password as your main WiFi router or create something unique to this device.  We took it to a corner of our basement with a weak signal and it rebroadcast that signal with very little loss of speed.

This has provided a really great signal to the multiple TVs I connected to it - but the power feed is the key. I originally connected 6 cables to it and did not connect the power feed. The signal seemed to actually decrease when I did that and I lost the majority of my channels. So then I went ahead and wired the connection to the power feed and now I have over a dozen more channels than I originally had. I am really happy with the signal and the resulting image.

We have a two-story house and have internet connection through our cable company.  In one room, the signal was very low and terribly slow for us and for guests on their own tablets and phones. With this extender, we now get quick and very efficient reception. It plugs into a wall outlet and it needed to use the software procedure  to get it to recognize the wireless network, but after a few minutes it was up and running and very efficient.

I was skeptical whether a passive antenna may work, but gave it a try because my office is inside a cinder brick block building that blocks both cellular tower signal and wifi signal from the access point hub that is only 50 ft away.  I was getting zero bar or sometimes barely 1 bar drifting from cell tower once in awhile, and no wifi signal at all.  After I put the passive antenna next to the window close to the ceiling, and my iPhone is 5 ft away from the antenna, it actually got 2-3 bars in cell signal, and 1-2 bars for wifi.  I did not expect it could give such improvements, pleasantly surprised.  I tried it out at home, where I do get a pretty good cell signal, 4 bars, without the antenna.  I thought it would give me 5 bars with this passive antenna, but it didn't change any signal strength.  So I think it works well for very weak cell signal in dead zones, and bring it up to a level where you can actually get some signal, which is better than nothing before.  But don't expect to give you better signal improvement if you are already in a strong signal area.  So it is a good alternative, without having to use powered antenna amplifier, which is very expensive and require wiring and power source, which is not as portable as this.

My primary reason for buying this was to only improve the cell signal in my basement where I have an office. I do get a pretty good signal around the house. It took me awhile before buying this becasue I wanted review everyone's reviews on this product WHICH HELP A LOT! I took everyone's advise especially about the coax cable (get your own, don't use theirs) I also purchased the dual anntena (YX039) just to make sure. Well after I finally installed everything it I went from 1 bar to 5 bars. I'am very happy with this, you defintly can tell that you loose the bars walking around the house only the rooms above my office got 5 bars. so I'm giving this a 5 stars just becasue it satisfy my expectations on what I needed.

I just received the Wilson DB PRO - cell phone signal booster to day and spent the last couple of hours installing it. I put the Antenna on the roof where I received 1 to 2 bars, I then ran the cable through the attic. I have electric up there so I put the booster up there and ran the cable to the center of the house and then installed the inside panel antenna. I connected all cables and powered up the signal booster and the lights flashed green until the system came up and then I turned on my cell phone and I have 2 to 3 bars now in my whole house. I only use to beable to receive text messages in the kitchen window and now I get cell phone through the house. this is great, I realy like this.

This device gives me 50-100 feet of solid signal through my soundproof apartment wall and around the corner!
I received this as a gift, and it's pretty much plug it and go. Very basic set-up, and easy to use.
I'd recommend it for anyone looking for an inexpensive alternative to renting a modem.

Note: If the power goes out, or surges, you may need to power-cycle it. It will be fine again, as long as you use a simple surge protector. It just glitches and looks broken at first, but is fine. (I lived in an old building when I got this.)

Tip: Don't let your cable installer tell you this won't work. It works perfectly with Comcast, as long as their service is up.

It works great. I was having problems getting several stations from my cable and determined that it was an issue of the splitter degrading the signal.  Tried several other splitters but, no improvement.  However this splitter/booster not only resolved the problem but, the TV image was also improved. I am very pleased with the result.

I purchased this to boost the wifi signal to my camera/doorbell, one story down from my router. It works great and was super easy to set up.

I was hoping it would also help the wifi reception in my home's basement--an additional floor below. It doesn't really help there--I think there are too many ducts and pipes in the floor. I probably would purchase another for that floor if it was a significant need. Otherwise, this is a great product!

I got this to extend my wireless network from my den (converted bedroom) in the corner of our house.  Our great room is on the opposite side of the house and has always had weak reception.  Not anymore...

I've put three of these in so far and they are amazing. The signal is great and they produce a strong wireless signal.

Works very good. The signal is excellent too. I live in one BR apartment and it works everywhere I go. My speakers are in the kitchen and it reads the signal from my BR. I am happy with that thing. May use it for my car as well)). Not sure about longevity of this device, otherwise - it's all good.

This works great at boosting the weak signal from my modem.  I used to get two bars in rooms that were far away from the modem, know I get 5 bars everywhere, even in my back yard!
