I installed the repeater in my bedroom to increase the signal strength, but it made no difference.
68% appreciated the connectivity range, whereas 32% didn't
Setting up the repeater was very easy.
When I connected the extender 3 feet from the router, I only got 2 bars of signal strength despite the router having a full signal.
70% appreciated the easy setup, yet 30% struggled
The setup process should be easy, but I had a bad experience with it and returned the item. I advise others not to waste their time if they spend more than 30 minutes installing it.
