Rated 5 out of 5 by from Does extend range. Received this on an offer to test it for no cost to me. It has worked well and extended range of my router into a difficult to cover area of my house (other range extenders had not been able to cover it) but does not give strong coverage to the whole 5000 sq ft house. I had to use the Browser setup as the WiFi protected setup did not work. There are no instructions on use of the two antennae on the extender and I have not found any way to adjust them that affects the signal. It boosts the signals and does not interfere with other electronics. The 'green' strong signal has reverted to 'orange' but that does not seem to affect how it works.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from A quick and easy way to extend your Wi-Fi range! I have a fairly large and sprawling six-bedroom house, so Wi-Fi dead zones are a chronic concern. So, I am constantly keeping my eyes open for range extenders. The RE6400 AC1200 BOOST EX Wi-Fi Range Extender certainly alleviated my concern. I opted for the Browser-based setup versus the Wi-Fi Protected Setup based on personal preference more than anything. Once I was in Basic Settings, I set the Extender IP address to a Static IP, checked both boxes to “Make same as router settings", set my Time Zone in Time Settings as appropriate, and clicked Save. Once the Range Extender rebooted I was good to go.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Wi-Fi Range I live in a very old historic house with many signal barriers created by both size and design configuration. By installing the LINKSYS AC1200 Boost EX to extend my Wi-Fi range, all family members have excellent coverage whether downstairs, upstairs, or on the front and rear porches. LINKSYS provides outstanding products, and this one is saving my family from being "disconnected". You know teenagers cannot handle their data usage but demand excellent, uninterrupted, Wi-Fi coverage, and we finally have accomplished this feat in our home. Since I am a participant in the Product Sampling Program, I received this range extender at no cost to me.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works great! I was given a sample of this product to review in my home. I placed it on an outlet as close to the center of the second floor of my home as possible. The download speeds obtained with the device ranged between 10 and 35 Mbps. As an example, the product allowed me to reach download speeds 16 Mbps when sitting about 20 feet from the device. it allows us to reach download speeds of 35 Mbps in my daughters room, which previously had the slowest connection in the entire house. Overall, great product. Very easy to set up. Supplies us with excellent wifi coverage throughout the entire second floor of our home.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from 2nd Internet Connection My house is 4 stories... I had a repeating wireless router on the lower level but the computers confused that connection with the main router. The 1200 range extender is now on the lower level and I use that connection down there, the entry connection on the upper two floors. Signal is strong and direct.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Works as advertised The AC1200 Wireless Extender has significantly improved wifi signal coverage in the far reaches of our house after many years of struggling to improve the signal with other extenders. It is not a panacea but now the remote corners of our house get decent, high-speed-capable signal speeds. The setup was easy with Mac products and an Apple Time Capsule as our router. The extender placement tool was helpful as well, so you don't plug the extender too far away from the router. Overall, this is a good product and I'd recommend it.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Not as good as expected! Using Spot Finder it determined that I need to have the extender closer to the Router than I expected. The extender is only about 12 feet away from the Router and it's in the middle of the optimum range. I had placed somewhere closer to the place that I want to extend to and the Spot Finder had me as furthest recommend location. And that was only about 16 feet away. Inside of house is wood and drywall and I have my Router in the second Floor and wanted to put it in the first floor towards the middle of the house. But had to settle in the second floor about 12 feet from the Router. I don't believe it will extend to the advertised range. It helps some so I am keeping it, but not as good as advertised or what I expected.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Rush To The Store!!!! BUY THIS UNIT! I bought this unit less than 30 minutes ago. I can't believe how this has helped solve the "connectivity" issues in our two story home. We've been running at 2.5 Gig and I didn't realize it, until I installed the AC 1200 Boost EX. It was super easy to set up and worked exactly as the instructions indicated it would. I'm not an electronic or IT guru; and I found the directions very clear. If I can do it; anyone can. I'm Extremely Pleased with product. I would HIGHLY recommend this product as a WiFi Extender!

*Maximum performance derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 specification. Actual performance can vary, including lower wireless network capacity, data throughput rate, range, and coverage. Performance depends on many factors, conditions, and variables, including distance from the access point, volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, operating system used, mix of wireless products used, interference, and other adverse conditions.
**Range specifications are based on performance test results under normal use case conditions. Actual ranges will increase or decrease depending on wireless obstructions, operating environments, and building material.
