My basement used to be a dead zone. Now we are enjoying movies and games in what has become the family room.

This Mesh Extender works wonders for our 2-level home. It really helps us to receive internet all throughout the house very well.

From the short time we have had this extender it has worked easily and effectively. It cost about half of another one we purchased that only tried to connect for minutes to each site we visited. We like this one.

So easy to install and set up. Range appears to be good inside the house. Not sure if it improved coverage in the detached garage.

My sprinkler controller in the garage kept dropping off-line due to a very weak Wi-Fi signal there. The AX1600 solved the problem. Installation was very simple. Plug it in, and make a few entries in the app. Now a strong signal in the garage. Problem solved.

Works very well. Ethernet plug that comes with it more than doubled the speed when plugged directly in to playstation.

The device was set up in a total of five minutes. The app worked as advertised and I am very pleased with the results.

I wasn't sure how well the AX1600 would work, but I'm able to game without any noticeable lag and configuration wasn't too bad with the Netgear app. I would have preferred to be hard wired to my Nighthawk router, but this is working out really well.

I had tried another vendors product and because of interference it didn't work. This one did.

I bought the Nighthawk WiFi 7 Router, customer service was very helpful as everything I own doesn't work on 5 g., You can change the router settings for whatever you're hooking up to it. Due to the configuration in our house, I had to buy an extender so my sleep number app would work in our bedroom, Works excellent, great security and smart controls, it was very easy to set up in the app.

This device was easy to set up with the app, although there's a mismatch with the app wizard and Netgear's guide. I just followed app directions. The device gets very hot, there's no WiFi improvement, and the extender frequently cannot be found in the app, requiring time-consuming processes more involved than initial set up to get it findable again. The app can sometimes find the extender from one device but not another. This plug-in extender gets hot, lights up, has an app, but seems clunky and has not proven useful.

Extender seems to be working great now but I was unable to install it without a 20 minute technical support call from Netgear.

Was having signal issues from my xfinity router, smart lights wouldn't program, constantly dropping out when listening to music, etc. Installed AX1600 and the signal strength skyrocketed, no further problems!

Can't believe such a little box can make so much difference. Signal increased no buffering. Hope it is as good in bad weather. Time will tell

Works great, easy install

I'm an older "non.techie" guy and needed to replace my Wi-Fi extender that failed. I bought this NetGear unit, installed the associated phone app and followed the instructions. It was pretty easy and all my Wi-Fi devices were reconnected.
