Review Netgear AX1600 wifi mesh extender (EAX12)

I purchased this to assist with addition of gaming device- Xbox one. It seems to have helped with the slowness and the lag experienced. The downloads on devices, including phone and tvs was better as well.

Did it's intended job by extending signal to the rest of my house. However, my overall speed of internet has gone down with a lot of buffering on devices

Netgear extender

I installed a new EV charger on the outside of my garage, which is 75 feet away from my house and network router. The charger was too far away to join my home wifi network, and I couldn't connect the charger to my phone for management purposes. Verizon offered me a new router and wireless extender, but only after they were delivered did Verizon confirmt that the extender was not powerful enough to reach across the 75 ft difference. I called a local computer company who recommended the Netgear AX1600 wire mesh extender. My first attempt to connect after installing the Netgear extend failed, and ChargePoint's tech support recommended that I disable the Mesh and just enable 2.4 gHz. Netgear's tech support team was fantastic, walking me through all the steps I needed to reconfigure the extender only for 2.4 gHz. Once that was done the EV charger connected to my wifi network without a hitch. The only complaint I had was that getting connected to a live tech support person was difficult, as the app kept wanting me to use the chat function, which was unreliable. Once I was able to connect to live tech support, everything was perfect.

Hard to connect

This WiFi Extender was hard to set up and we are now having problems keeping devices hooked to it. It seems to serve no purpose at all in helping extend the Wifi connection in the bedroom where we need it.

Doesn't work; terrible customer service

I completed all the steps to register; however, I learned one of the extenders was registered to a different person, as such, this appeared to prevent both extenders to pair with modem. I spent countless hours with Chat and telephone to no avail. I returned them today

Easy set up!

AX1600 4-stream extender was easy to set up and provides good WiFi to my office in back of the house, about 80 feet from the modem. Much better than the router that was installed by Viasat. Now we can view internet at the barn about 80 feet from the house. Purchased online after looking up reviews on Mac.
