WiFi Extender AC1200 WiFi Booster and Signal Amplifier, 1200Mbps Dual Band WiFi Extender Signal Booster for Home Coverage Up to 1600 sq.ft. Internet Booster, WPS Easy Setup, Wall Plug Design

Works like it should I only got this since my room got little WiFi connection I install games fast with the Ethernet not connected but have lower ping with Ethernet. I get around 13ms or lower in games. Setup was easy and definitely worth the money!

The unit was just what I was hoping for, compact, ethernet port and easy pairing with my router. I have a Comcast/Xfinity router, for some reason, even though the extended network signal looked strong, the speed was only about 30-60mbs while the existing network speed is usually 200-300mbs. I emailed tech support and received an answer very quickly about things to try but nothing helped to get the speed up higher wirelessly. The Ethernet signal seemed to help me a bit more than wireless but not enough to keep the unit. Tech support apologized for the inconvenience and my patience. They asked me to return it for a full refund, which I did. For the above reasons I gave the 5 star ratings but the booster did not work for me.

Overall I'm happy with the performance but I was a little frustrated at first. The installation seems fairly simple but can be problematic. First off there are no instructions on or in the box. You need to watch the YouTube video online or on Amazon. When I first plugged it in and the light came on I searched my phone settings and did not find the generic unsecured WiFi BrosTrend. It had listed 4089Isabella_EXT. which was a secured network. I couldn't figure out what was wrong. I tried several times and couldn't get it to work. I watched the video again and then tried to connect via WPS. That didn't work but I found out that there is a reset button on the bottom to stop the search for WPS and go back to the factory settings. Once I reset it I saw the BrosTrend_EXT come up and the rest of the installation was easy. I think that this might have been a used or refurbished model that someone forgot to reset before they sent it to me. Now that I got it working I moved it around the house to different locations. Most of the time I would get the red light indicating it was too far away. It only seems to work when it is fairly close to the source WiFi, only one or two rooms away. I finally got a good connection signal and was somewhat skeptical about the location. I went downstairs where I have most of my signal loss and my phone connected to the Extended WiFi and the signal was at maximum level. I've only had it for a day but it seems to be working well. It would have been less frustrating if I had know in advance the types of issues I would run into during the initial installation. There is a note in the box to extend the warranty by 6 months by sending an email to the address and include your Amazon order number. I sent the message and got a reply that they extended the warranty from 24 to 30 months.

Just work's ok made in China.

I purchased this, because it looked like it was just what I needed, and they made it appear easy to install, but I couldn't get it to do a thing. I plugged it in a socket about 3 ft. from the router, and pressed the WPS button within the 2 minutes after the router started, and it wouldn't connect, so I moved it closer to the router, and I did everything the instructions said to do, and it wouldn't connect. I didn't call tech support, because I had just spent what seemed like forever on the phone with Spectrum to see what the reason was for the slow internet speed, and was told it was the router, and that if the TV in the room closest to the router was working fine, then the Netgear router wasn't strong enough, so because this was supposed to be so simple to install & so great, I decided to buy it, even though I didn't have any problems with the slow internet or router until the pandemic hit. Strange, I know. I spent half the day messing with this thing, and then had to take it to town to return it. A big waste of time!!!

This is an honest review of this product. It did not increase my internet megabits. My numbers stayed the same. My opinion about this device: If you have devices that are FAR from your router, have this product plugged in close to proximity to where those devices are located. This product extends your Wi-Fi. I have Wi-Fi cams outdoors. My router is far from those cams. I have this product plugged in rather close to my cams. I noticed a big difference when I wanted go make my cams talk to my phone. So yes, this product works. Also to let you know, you have the option to sign into this products own Wi-Fi. You will have two different Wi-Fi networks as soon as you plug this product in. Just imagine you being able to stretch your Wi-Fi signal farther on your property or in your house. It's that simple. I would recommend buying this if you have a situation like mine. I hope this review helps you. ***UPDATE*** It has been a few weeks since the first review. I regret buying it. It does not stay connected. If you buy this, be ready to start seeing a red flashing light on the unit. That means the extender is too far away from your router. So move it closer to see if the red light goes away. It will stay blue for a few days making you think the problem is fixed but when you least expect it, it goes red. Gets pretty annoying when I am at work and cannot check my Wi-Fi cams at home to see what is going on. You get what you pay for I guess. Maybe if we spend more money and buy a stronger extender but this one is a wimp and needs to be close to your router so what's the point?

Setup was very easy. The WPS didn't work for me (probably my router not this device's fault), but the instructions provided a very simple setup without it. The WiFi extender adds "ext" to my regular SSID and uses the same password making connecting to it a breeze, while also being able to distinguish it from my regular router. The connection was solid and fast, though admittedly slower than my router signal. My regular wifi gives 300mbs whereas the extender was giving 150mbs on the same laptop for each. Latency wasn't an issue either. The best part is no signal dropouts! I didn't test out the ethernet connection, so can't say how effective it is.

I bought a BrosTrend Wifi AC Adapter a while back. It was easy to install and has worked flawlessly since I got it. For that reason, I thought I'd give their wifi extender a chance. The product arrived on time. Unfortunately for me, my router doesn't have a WPS button so I had to set up the extender the old-fashioned way. (Otherwise it probably would have taken only a few seconds using the WPS button.) The most difficult part of the set up was trying to find/locate my network password. Otherwise, it was straightforward. No issues connecting to the extender, scanning networks, or getting access. Feb. 7th, 2021: Hi, everybody, I thought I'd provide an update in the midst of a pandemic. The extender has been constantly plugged in since my original review and is still working flawlessly. I haven't checked on it at all, it just works. Since there's a pandemic, my mother has participated in a lot of video conferences since all of her kids, grandkids, and other family want to keep a safe distance away from her. She uses the Facebook Portal for the video conferences and the extender has kept the wifi signal going strong. Every time I'm on a call with her, I think it's pretty amazing that she doesn't experience any issues. My daughter is complaining that she's experiencing wifi connectivity issues in our own home (she's upstairs and the router is in the basement). I may have to buy another one of these routers to address the issue. The price of the extender has gone up considerably but I guess you get what you pay for. This device works. I live in a duplex. My mother lives on the other side. I've always wanted to extend my wifi signal over to her side. I plugged the extender into at least 4 or 5 different outlets and always got the red light indicating the extender is too far away from the router. I moved the extender back to the closest outlet and tried connecting to my network. The signal was, at best, medium strength. I had no problems connecting to the network. I also had no problems accessing a variety of web sites. Response was amazingly fast, as if I was at home in my side of the duplex. I tried different rooms in my mother's side and only had one brief disconnect. No big deal considering the extender is supposedly too far away from the router. One caveat - I've only had the extender for about 24 hours so there's always the possibility my review may change. But if the extender is anything like the adapter I bought, I think it will be fine.

BrosTrend AC1200 WiFi Booster Range Extender There have always been areas in my house where the Wi-Fi coverage is poor, it’s not a big house but for some reason, the Virgin Media hub doesn’t have enough signal strength for those areas. I have tried a couple of signal boosters before but they didn’t give a complete solution to the problem. I noticed that the BrosTrend WiFi Booster supported both 2.4 and 5GHz signals as well as 1200Mbps at a very reasonable price so I thought I would see if it could provide a solution to my problems. To begin with, the BrosTrend WiFi Booster has a very easy to follow video setup guide online as well as good printed instructions, I followed the video purely because it was easier. The video explains exactly what to do and the reasons for doing it, which make a pleasant change these days. I had the unit up and running within minutes of unboxing it and I found an ideal location to install it. I must admit that I wasn’t expecting miracles, I was just hoping for some improvement. However, I was very pleasantly surprised, after re-connecting some of the devices to the BrosTrend WiFi Booster everything now works and works very well. I have surveillance cameras in various places, previously the reception was patchy, at best and sometimes non-existent. Now I can get a solid, strong signal immediately from anywhere in the house. I am not just happy, I am over the moon with the BrosTrend WiFi Booster. Would I recommend it? Most definitely!

Fácil de configurar y bastante útil el uso del cable ethernet en mi caso a Sido bastante útil lo hace más versátil y práctico dando una buena calidad en la señal

Wifi Booster works well, but ensure the doors are open where you experience wifi blackspots.

My house is big, and there is only one WiFi router. I needed this as repeater, and it is working well. It is so easy to install, that I just plugged in, and it started working. Setting the password was equally easy. Main point is that, this is maintenance free. Just plug once and forget. A couple of times I have seen the strength of the signal going down, but I am happy with it. I do not lose my calls from the office.
