Universal WiFi Range Extender (WN3000RP)
(NGWN3000RP)
Pros: I am not computer savvy and I only had to spend a little while online with tech support to get it working. There are no wires to look ugly or require crawling around under the desk. A more computer literate person could probably have gotten this set up in just a few minutes. It works. That's all i ask of it.
Cons: Wish I hadn't had to buy it, but it should make life easier.
Other Comments: This item was MUCH cheaper from this website/company than from others.
Yes, I recommend this product

the Netgear Universal WiFi Range Extender(WN3000RP) turned out to be exactly what I was looking for. All I had to do was plug it into the wall receptacle and it solved my problems-no
wires or connections needed. I received it in about four days and had no delivery charge.

Universal WiFi Range Extender (WN3000RP)
(NGWN3000RP)
Pros: Does the job well, Compact
Cons: Unclear instructions
Other Comments: It expands well my home network, covering former dead spots. The instructions are not that clear, allowing for some frustrations, until you understand what was really meant. The manual could use some copyrighting.

Universal WiFi Range Extender (WN3000RP)
(NGWN3000RP)
Pros: Easy To Set Up
Cons:
Other Comments: Works very well for what I needed. Although my desktop was not all that far from where I was trying to use my tablet, iPhone, and blue ray player with built-in wifi, my Comcast modem and Net Gear wireless router would not suffice. I continued to get dropped service. This range extender was my last hope. It works great. Setup was simple and only took a few minutes. I couldn't be happier! Thanks for offering a great product and at a price that couldn't be beat!
Yes, I recommend this product

Universal WiFi Range Extender (WN3000RP)
(NGWN3000RP)
Pros: Easy To Set Up, Secure, Highly Compatible
Cons: 2 External Antennas, Better If Even Smaller
Other Comments: () Overall Device Performance: 7.5 of 10.0.
() Overall Device Value (Performance for its Price): 7.0 of 10.0.
() Ease of Device Set-Up: 8.5 of 10.0.
() How Cumbersome this Device is physically to place, and to adjust its 2 external antennas in a way that's likely to fit easily into an open space that you have for it: 6.5 of 10.0.
_________________________
I would rate this Device a 7.5 of 10.0 in its ability to pick up the WiFi signal that I bought it for. This rating is based on this Device having been placed about 30 feet away (and separated by a sheet rock wall) from the transmitting WiFi device from which this Device picks up its WiFi signal.
So if you already can watch a streaming movie through your existing WiFi Network. And this basically works. But you find that there are occasional pauses in the movie, during which the movie may stop for a minute or two to load more of the movie (because the WiFi signal is not entirely strong enough when 30 feet from the WiFi transmitter to transmit without occasional glitches):
Then I think that this Device could completely solve this WiFi limitation about 80%-to-85% of the time while its added actively to your existing WiFi configuration, (if that WiFi configuration involves the distances and WiFi signal separation of one sheet rock wall, that I describe above).
So the above is regarding, I think, the issue of Signal Strength.
In terms of Signal Speed enhancement (with the same configuration that I describe above), I would say that this Device could boost your WiFi Signal Speed (say, in downloading a large file to your WiFi-enabled computer through your existing WiFi configuration) by about one-third.
So I find this WiFi Speed Increase from this Device's inclusion with my WiFi configuration to be: More than minimally faster, but not tremendously faster.
Possible Additional Variables:
I utilize this Device placed much closer to my WiFi receiving equipment than to the original WiFi transmitter from which this Device draws its WiFi signal.
I think that the optimal placement of this Device to enhance WiFi Signal Strength/Range and to enhance WiFi Signal Speed, is placement exactly halfway between your WiFi receiving equipment and your original WiFi transmitting device. (This optimal Device placement was not workable with my set-up.)
On the other hand, the original WiFi transmitter from which this Device picks up its WiFi signal is a top quality, individually purchased, expensive WiFi transmitter, that presumably transmits more or less the strongest WiFi signal that you can buy today to attach with an Ethernet cable directly to your Ethernet-wired connection.
Yes, I recommend this product
