    Works Perfect, Easy Install

    Super easy to setup, doubled signal and speed on the system that is farthest away from router and behind a bearing wall. Went from 1 bar to 4 bars. Be sure to run setup...Read complete review

    Super easy to setup, doubled signal and speed on the system that is farthest away from router and behind a bearing wall. Went from 1 bar to 4 bars. Be sure to run setup on a computer that is farthest away from your wireless router, like the one that has the bad connection and is the reason you are buying this.

    hard to install

    very surprised that it would not install. I have always like linksys, but this one is horrible.

          The Linksys/Cisco wireless extender was more versatile and easier to set up then the previous Netgear extender I tried. The difference it made is quite noticeable and has made our wireless connection at the end of building more reliable.

              Easy to use and set up. Simply plug-in and if you are using another Linksys wireless product, just one push of the button on both devices and you're done. Using as both a range extender and bridge for my home network.

              • Q:

                I have a wireless router and I need to plug in a device via wired ether net cable in a location where there is no access point. Is it correct that this device will pick up the wi-fi signal and then I can run a cable from it to my device and get internet access?

                • A:

                  Because this unit allows flexible placement, it should easily be able to extend your WiFi to the upstairs of your home.

              • Q:

                I have a Cisco Linksys E1200 in my office at one end of my average-sized city apartment. I get good WiFi coverage in my office, bedroom, hallway, kitchen and bathroom. BUT, in the dining area, the WiFi coverage comes and goes and in the opposite end of my apartment, in the living room, there is no coverage. Will this extender solve my problem? Thank you.

                • A:

                  Absolutely. Place it roughly halfway between the original router and the point you are having issues with, and it will amplify your signal significantly. You may also do well to just buy an access point, which just sends your router signal farther, instead of also having the increased functionality of being a bridge (which is mostly like a router as well).

                  A:

                  A range extender will provide you with stronger and more reliable network coverage in more places in your home by picking up and reflect the existing WiFi signals from your router or access point. Many users use a range extender to enhance, increase the distance, or to expand areas with weak or missing signals.

                  Judging by the description of your issue, a range extender should help you greatly. However, you may wish to speak with Linksys to ensure that your router is not simply experiencing an error.
