  1. Scott

    Had to get something that worked well with my T-Mobile Home internet. This works perfectly.

  2. ThomasK

    A little time to set up with an older router due to an accumulation of usual baggage, but once it recognized the system, has been working flawlessly. Completely reinvigorated my home network. Very pleased with the purchase and a very fair price.

  3. Matty

    Seems to work nicely. Wifi definitely seems more stable across the house. App was simple enough to set up too.

  4. Linksys

    The Netgear extender was rather easy to set up; technical help was readily available. When the extender was connected it worked very well all over our large home.

  5. MusicProfessor

    Returned this item as it would not pick up wireless signal from router. Worked only when it was next to router.

  6. Jerrythemeat

    My son and law recommend to my its work very good y move it any where

  7. VerErn

    This was so easy to install and it has helped with our WIFI in our TV room

  8. ChristopherL

    Doesn’t work. I followed all instructions and got the app but nothing happened other than just make my wifi stop working

  9. Mesh

    I tried to install the old school way with issues. Reset unit and install app, it was very easy.

  10. Alobis

    The device is awesome and working properly like i needed.

  11. lambertmjr

    Currently working as advertised. I think it’s a bit pricey in my opinion but I needed something dependable.

  12. DennisH

    Easy to set up and has made a huge difference in connecting to the internet.

  13. Oruiz93

    Extends reach of WiFi significantly set up is easy follow steps on phone. Only reason not giving 5 stars is because app is buggy sometimes not able to connect to extender.

  14. BiancaZ

    Great return easy to do I liked the product but it stopped working intermittently had to grab another.

  15. ourcomputerguy

    Great add-on mesh extender for when you don’t want to purchase a whole new WiFi systemand just need a little extra range.

  16. AnitaS

    Works well. Now have WiFi service through out my home

  17. EricTrinque

    This has been indispensible as a part of my home network setup. I can’t believe how i made it without this for so long. The setup was 7.5/10 in ease and the usefulness of the app is even a bit better than my ISP with some more minutae controls. All around very satisfied and will be adding another on the far corner to extend out more of my property.

  18. Happycustomer

    With this I can use Wifi anywhere in my home. Even in the rural area where my phone signal is not that strong. With this I can walk around my house and talk in the phone without any problem

  19. RobertN

    This was my fix to slow internet in our upstairs part of the house. The best extender i have bough that i went amd bought another 2 for our vacation home.

  20. AdrianS

    Gets the job done, easy to setup and extends my routers connection throughout my house

  21. Austin

    Its okay didn’t give me the coverage i was looking foor but ot worked easy to set up

  22. sportsfntc

    It does what it’s supposed to do and it doesn’t spit.

  23. Alim

    Exactly what was needed to extend the wifi signal in the house. Easy to set-up and makes a difference on the second level of the house.

  24. CBlakiewicz

    The extender worked as expected! Setup was easy. I like the WiFi mesh system it will jump between the router and the extender without any hesitations. The netgear app worked well with set up. Btw I also have this paired with a nighthawk AC1900.

  25. SurajS

    User interface is difficult and was not able to set this up as an ascess point

  26. Techguy

    Not a big tech guy here. I just needed a stronger signal from my router that was located in the basement (long story).This gadget did the trick. It was very easy to get going. The app worked as it should. No hang ups. I’m actually contemplating getting another one so I can hardwire to it. Something I picked up on YouTube.

  27. SimonF

    Extender keeps dropping connection from my WiFi, ranging to a couple of seconds to minutes

  28. DavidH

    Works well but can get easily pulled out of the wall by walking close to it if you don’t watch your step. My dogs seem to bump it at least twice a day causing it to get lose easily.

  29. JoseP

    Works great. It uses same name as router so your network is only one.

  30. DaleG

    Works well. 1800 sq ft 1 stry house. Plugged in front center

  31. Bluesmrt1

    His wife likes them. They’re really works and was easy to set up for my

  32. JohnC

    I recently switched from cable internet to fiber-optic. I needed to boost the WiFi signal from the modem/router to the upstairs portion of my home. I researched a variety of Mesh Extenders and found the NETGEAR AX1600 WiFi 6 Mesh Extender to be rated the best of the best. So, I bought it. It has exceeded my expectations from the ease of setting it up and marrying it to my new internet modem/router to the exceptional signal strength it creates to the upstairs portion of my home wheee before hand I had little to no signal at all. I highly recommend to anyone who needs a WiFi extender to purchase this NETGEAR AX1600. It will pay for itself in just a few months and pay dividends afterwards by not having to pay a monthly rental fee to your Internet provider in perpetuity.

  33. DWestJr

    Easy configuration with decent signal strength. Could be stronger

  34. IreneD

    Directions to set up were not easy but once set up it works great

  35. riddickrock

    It does the job. It boosts my signal downstairs and I have had no issues streaming.

  36. FeliciaD

    Not reliable, frequently lost WiFi signal. Only used for 8 months and had to replace

  37. StevevH

    It works great, I am very happy with this product. I have fast internet speed even on the top floor. My house three floors and I hooked it up to my play station.

  38. gerardo65033

    great product, i use this alongside a ethernet cable for my ps5. i would lag hella before to the point where i just stopped playing online video games completely . now im able to play fort for hours with no hiccups or skips at all

  39. BrittanyB

    I’ve never bought a WiFi extender before, and I wasn’t sure what to expect. Once I downloaded the app, it was fairly simple to hook up. It just took a few minutes, and now WiFi is available in parts of my studio where it didn’t reach! I’d buy another one if I ever needed it.

  40. CesarF

    Works if you have a 5g wifi you want to turn into 2.4 for you incompatiable device this is the extender to use

  41. JohannaH

    When we purchased this our internet was spotty. After installing this we can now get on the internet all over the house and the front porch. Great buy

  42. ChrisG

    Could not get it to set up. Instructions extremely poor. App was useless.

  44. bhvo

    Fantastic! 200 feet away from my router in the house, this is in my barn’s tack room. Great signal for my cameras out there. Setup was effortless. Highly recommend this.

  45. Mark210

    Shipped fast and the instructions for installation were very easy to follow.

  46. Allen

    This WiFi Extender was fairly easy to setup and increased my coverage area to my expectations.

  47. PeterS

    Works great! This helped our 5ghz ssid get from 1 bar to max bars in corner bedroom of the house. Been working great since installed and setup, which was pretty easy.

  48. RussellF

    It provides great service for the whole house including the basement.
