Great little range extender for the price
Very easy setup and worked right out of the box. Just plugged it into an outlet, waited for the light to turn orange then logged into the Linksys setup wireless network on my laptop. The extender led me through the rest of the process including finding the best location to give maximum range extension. We needed the 2.4 GHz signal for a particular device and this extender allows us to turn off the 5 GHz. (The opposite can be done, too, or leave both bands on.) The device is 20 feet away from the extender but it still connected right away. It solved our problem.

Adequate, especially for the price.
This is my second cheap all-in-one extender unit. Neither has given a 5 star performance, but this one does better than the cheap Belken it replaces, and the price was right. Setup was easy, using WPS. Performance isn’t perfect, even though I’m tasking it lightly, over short distances with almost no obstruction. Loses signal periodically when I’m on the porch trying to stream music, through a sliding glass door, a scant 15 ft. away. Not a deal-buster, but it’s frustrating sometimes. Next time I’ll try a regular wireless router set up as an access point.

Works well for price point $13
Well made. Not the really sophisticated ones seen today but extends well and has app to help place it.

Avoid the Linksys RE6250
The Linksys RE6250 is easy to install and connects to the router easily using WPS. It shows up with it’s SSID and easily connects any device that requests a login. Unfortunately, that’s where it all stops. Data passthrough is almost non-existent. 90% of the time it’s at zero. No data. The other 10% of the time it passes data very slow and intermittently.This happens regardless of where it is located. Many reboots and re-installs always ended up with the same results – unuseable. Replaced it with a TP-Link Range extender for $24.99 (half the price of the Linksys RE6250), placed in the exact same spot and the TP-Link works perfectly. The Linksys was a waste of $50.

Definitely Helps
I have a linksys router and after months of troubleshooting why something claiming 2700 sq ft of coverage wouldn’t cover a 700 sq ft apartment I decided to get this extender.Setup was OK. For some reason the Mac address on the back of the unit isn’t the actual Mac address, so setting up on my Mac filtered network became impossible using the phone method. Ended up having to drop my Mac filter and use the WPS method to connect. Once I did I was able to connect fairly easily, although the second WPS press for the 5g network didn’t take the first time.I have my unit about halfway between my router and the room affected and I was able to get it up to 98 Mbs in the room after connecting to the extended (that’s up from 4 Mbs). I pay for gig internet so I’m surprised I’m not getting more but at this point 98 is better than 4.All in all it does what it claims and I would have given 4 stars if I would have had a much higher download speed than I did (upload was 30 Mbs so obviously it’s getting that high from the gig speed).

Great
This was exactly what we were looking for to solve our problem and it did exactly that. Let me give you a short quick back story.We had got a projector to watch movies outside in our backyard during the summer. We quickly realized that we did not want to buy a portable dvd player to hookup to this projector and start renting DVDs to watch movies outside.We also did not want to put movies on a USB thumb drive, and we knew we did not want to hookup a hard drive to it either to watch movies.The only choice and the best choice for us was to stream movies via WiFi to the projector via some streaming services we already had.The only issue was when we would walk outside maybe ten feet from the door the signal would be gone, it would drop out.I actually tested this signal with my phone and thought because I had a connection that it would work.Long story short of it is, the signal outside the house was weak and poor. So unable to stream anything.We actually have the router on second floor.So I eventually found this Linksys model after searching and researching other models, honestly I was skeptical at first, but surprised when I saw it work.All you have to do is plug it in the wall, then try to access it via available networks, once it finds it you will run setup. Then you will connect to the new access point with your same original password.This thing does work. The signal is also very strong.So if you are like us and you just need something wireless to bring the same strong WiFi signal to an area of your house.

No solid connection, very intermittent.
I’ve had extenders in this same location.This one tests that it too close to modem but when I move it Connection goes in and out. Going back to a hardwired.

En general el producto funciona bien. Sin embargo de repente hace cosas raras; se desconecta, o está conectado pero no tiene acceso a internet. No estoy seguro de que lo comprarÃÂa otra vez
