WiFi Mesh Range Extender (EX5000) - Covers up to 1,000 sq.ft. and 15 Devices with AC1200 Dual Band Wireless Signal Booster & Repeater (up to 1200 Mbps Speed) – Compact Wall Plug Design

For something that doesn’t cost very much this works great. I put it in my detached garage (which is about 35 feet from my gateway/modem) so that I could stream on my tv that’s in there. No problems whatsoever. Setup took less than 2 minutes. I’m not sure what the speed is but the 4 WiFi bars on my phone and tv are always at the max when I’m out there.

I have bought 4 of these so far, and 2 I gave away. I've been using IPERF3 for testing with my pair and decided I wanted to know exactly how much speed I was getting from these. When using just 1 as an AP, I got upwards for 180Mbps. The band steering features seem to be working well, and other 802.11ax features, as I disabled the 2.4Ghz interface and noticed a drop in speed by about 20Mbps. In a test with two extenders forming a wireless bridge, one in AP mode, the other in mesh mode, I noticed slightly higher speeds, as much as 210Mbps (with both laptops wired in to the ethernet ports). These devices work really well in this configuration, which is surprising as both of my laptops have Intel AX201 wifi cards. I was expecting the 1 AP configuration to provide more throughput. The worst configuration was using both in the mesh mode with the main router being a Ubiquiti AP that I have no management access to. In this configuration I was receiving about 40 to 60 Mbps. I believe the Ubiquiti might only support 802.11ac in my test. The downsides are that the web configuration is slow, there's no access for SNMP (as this would be excellent for more network insight), and without proper mesh intelligence the performance could (emphasis on could) be bad for an uninformed consumer. However, the web configuration is really well thought out and guides most general use cases to an optimal solution. I'd recommend the Netgear EAX12 for most home and business installations as I'm rather happy with buying my set. If you lose network access when trying to connect to these devices, try accessing the webpage through IPv6 with the device's built in MAC address. Try opening [ipv6address]/list_extender_device.htm in your web browser (with the square brackets) to see the device. There are websites that convert MAC addresses to IPv6 addresses which should help you get access to the device.

I have a TLC Roku TV and it looses Wi-Fi at least once a night, usually in the middle of a movie. The TV doesn't allow cabled Ethernet so Wi-Fi it is. My next step was to improve the W-Fi signal in that room. This has decent reviews and I gave it a shot. This didn't help my TV any but the Wi-Fi signal is stronger. In fact with it only 2' from the TV one could say great signal. I do see it dropping from excellent to just good. There doesn't appear to be any changes (doors shut...) in my environment. I told you this story not to complain about the TV but to say the extender improved the signal but I ended up using a Fire Stick and it never lost Wi-Fi while using the extender. However, I did not try it without the extender. I would buy it again but my wish would be that it have a 2nd Ethernet port, both being bi-directional.

No customer service. When trying to set this up, first problem was it has you go to a website that doesn't exist. It just kept circling around for you to open your browser and enter the same website. Then when I went to netgear, it had listings of models to set up and it did not list this model. Then it wants you to download a install program which once again didn't work. Decided to call and the first thing, the automated voice asks if you are over 50 because you could get a discount. I thought, what the heck, lets see what that is. BIG MISTAKE! It was a pitch for a life alert type device and, you can't get out of it. I kept saying no an all that did was send me to another automated voice saying the will set me up with this thing. Hung up and called back, said no to the over 50 question, still got the same pitch. Called from ou land line and, still got the pitch. Decided to use the chat option. At least they didn't pitch me. They wanted a picture of what lights were on, on the extender. I was working on my desktop and didn't want to drag out and plug in my camera so, I told them I could just tell them what lights were on. One green , not a big deal. At that point nothing else was said and my conversation was rejected. Promptly boxed up the extender, processed my return to Amazon and, ordered a different brand, which I had setup in maybe 5 minutes.

Fairly easy to set up for the technologically inept. I wasn’t able to use the app or the quick set up, but it gave additional instructions and was pretty quick.Works great. I’ve got a 2200 square-foot house and this extends Wi-Fi to my outdoor cameras seamlessly.

This is not working the way it should. It will not hold a steady stream, it just stops. I should not have gotten a fixed one.

Works wonderfully and easy to set up. I have weak awful internet in my apartment that could only handle 1 maybe 2 devices and this helps me so much. Now I can have more devices connected.

The Extender works great but it was left in front of my gate where any one could have taken it.

Fácil de instalar y ayuda a ampliar el alcance de la red

so quick and easy to set up via the app - simple to install, my Foxtel box did not pick it up, so rebooted Foxtel and it picked it up instantly :-) the household was good to go in about 10 minutes.

Funciona excelente, buen alcance en señal.

So easy to set up this product. We use it for our security cameras that are a bit too far away from the main router. The cameras work great now with better live stream picture.

Improves range!
