Hard to set up, seems to do what it says it would.

My review of this may change over time.

First a bit about me. I grew up surrounded by the newest tech (when that newest tech was the first portable computers and big clunky cell phones). I have never had the patience for going beyond plug and play. I deal with technology every day at my job in the library; I am often the go to guy when others have a question...but I often say I hate technology (usually when it isn't doing what I want it to). SO now you know a little about me...

Our WiFi lives on the second floor. It's a little weaker on the first and in the basement...not to mention in the yard and our extra room in the garage (detached).

So far this seems to boost the signal on the first floor (four bars instead of three or sometimes two). I have connected the tablet, laptop & PS3 to it with little problem.

The problem was in the setup. The sheet of instructions appeared simple, but was not. I had to bang through guessing. AND I had to reset the device twice. I finally finished the set up. This has boosted the signal in the basement, but not in the dining room. The original connection is stronger there. We may move this device to the kitchen and see if it extends to the extra room in the garage...

Speeds don't seem any different. We'll update if that changes.

Works well but had a little trouble getting it set up. The directions were not real easy for the 'techno' challenged, such as myself, to follow. Once we got it set up it works well.

Super wonky to set it up myself...but once I got the adjustments close and started tightening it down everything went smoothly.

It's a little confusing to set up and operate, otherwise it works fine.

I gave it 3 stars because of the very complicated set up procedures. Hardware was fairly easy to set up and that would earn 5 stars. However, figuring out how this thing works is a challenge. Unless you are computer smart, leave it along. It has screen after screen of set ups. It will take me days to figure out how to run this thing.

The instructions were difficult to understand  I never was able to get it set up to work, not sure why it didn't work

Certainly not easy for one person, the instructions were not easy either.  Haven't used it yet, just practicing setting it up.

Why is this so difficult to set up? I feel like there's gotta be an easier way.

I'm currently using this device to provide a direct ethernet connection to my Roku video player, as it seemed to be having difficulty with a wifi connection.

I'll make this review short and sweet.  It's supposed to be plug and play, but I couldn't get the 2 remote units to communicate with each other.  I probably spent well over an hour on the phone with tech support and while they were nice, they didn't help me much.

Finally, I rebooted and reset everything under the sun including the cable modem, router and each respective device and after multiple attempts I *finally* got the thing to work.  Total setup time for me was over 2 hours.

Not saying that you'll have the troubles that I had, as I'm sure many people plug them in and they work perfectly.  But that wasn't my experience.

The good news is that once I got the devices properly linked, they seemed to work together seamlessly and flawlessly.  So I'm giving this product a 4 star rating because it does exactly what it says that it will.  Be aware though that your setup experience might be pleasant and easy, or not so easy.

Very hard to set-up...so much that I have not used it since its purchase!

Once you get it set up it works GREAT and I plan to buy a few more. BUT the setup instructions could have been much better.

Works good. Hard to get setup. Once i got put up and connected it has made a huge difference. It does work.

I tried more times than I can tell you to set it up. I am getting frustrated about it! I would really like to get some help so I could rate this item. Thanks!

I'd really like to give this a four star review because set-up was a pain in the butt but now that it's set up, it's great. So I can't really penalize the performance. I have a dual band Linksys router with WPS so set-up should have been as simple as plugging it in and pushing both buttons. But it didn't work that way (and I had the router and extender within inches of each other). I tried three times. Then I went to the manual set-up instructions. I got nowhere. So I called tech support. Forty minutes later (argghh) and I finally had it working. I'm pretty technically savvy so it was frustrating to go through all the minutia that they kept asking me. We ended up running an Ethernet cable directly from the extender to my laptop and finding it that way. Once it was established and linked to my router, I could unplug it and move it wherever I wanted (within good range of my router). So it is on the other end of the house. It provides a 5 bar signal in areas that had a very weak signal before. Overall, I'm happy but I just wish it was easier to set-up.

Finally got it to work after several days.  Either I'm slow on the uptake, or the instructions are a bit convoluted.
