    It has stopped working for no apparent reason. The power won't even turn on. Also when I first purchased this item I had to call support to get them to help me connect my Xbox One. After an hour and a half amd three calls there were never able to do so.

    Decent 2.4GHz with slower speeds but completely unusable running faster speeds on 5GHz. The connection drops constantly and reconnects on the 2.4 band.

    it keeps losing signal and i have to place it 5-8 feet from my router , it is not as practical as it seems . i bought it for my patio and to boost my wireless signal to my tv but it is still a weak signal and did not find this out until after 2 weeks which is the return policy for best buy - $215 down the drain

    Router gave issues connecting as extended wireless network to netgear x8 and ATT uverse router. Could not stay connect even after changing channels. And when connected, connection was slow and unstable. Recommend going with other netgear extended wireless networks.

    Too much work

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I thought this was going to be the bees knees, however, way too many problems with set up. I was on hold for almost 40 minutes to get technical support. Even after we had it working, most of my many Wi-Fi devices wouldn't connect to it. I would encourage anyone looking for a repeater to choose a different manufacturer and a much better product and much better support! Avoid
