THIS product does NOT boost your existing WiFi signal. Nor does it extend it. It creates a SECOND signal to access your WiFi. A second WiFi. One that will reach farther but will be much much slower.
Example: I have fiber speed but my current router doesn’t extend a fast enough internet speed to the farthest upstairs room. I tried this product and it did create a second WiFi signal that did reach to that farthest room, the signal it projected was weaker than the spotty connection my router gave. It didn’t even give me 1/4th if the speed my router was giving to that room. (My router was doing 100mbps to that room, and the booster only did .... roughly 10mbps. With an even worse upload speed.)
Unfortunately it didn’t work for me. But if all you need is a weak signal or a slight signal, this might be great for you!
My main complaint is that it creates a second WiFi and did not boost the EXISTING WiFi signal. I don’t need two WiFi logins. I just want the one WiFi access point I currently have to be extended. This product did not meet those needs.
It does not have a cord, it plugs directly into an outlet like a nightlight
It automatically creates a new network named yournetwork + "_EXT"
It's smaller than I thought, about the size of 3 stacked packs of post-it notes
If you use your internet everyday for school or work, slow speeds speeds can be detrimental. This completely fixed the issue for me. The most $20 has every improved my life. Other more expensive models probably have some features this doesn't, but if you just want to fix dead zones for not much money, this is the answer.

It took maybe 2 minutes to set up, the hardest part was getting it out of the box! It amplifies the signal perfectly, and I find that it actually makes my wifi faster, as less people are using it!
HouseWifi is my normal wifi signal in my room and the HouseWifi_EXT is the extenders wifi signal in my room. Look at the difference!
I will be convincing my family to buy these for the farther parts of the house. In love!!

Top reviews from other countries
I've had a D-link extender before this one, which was a nightmare to set up. It was complicated and I had to do a bunch of manual settings in order to get the desired result. It was even having an IP address conflict with the base router. What kind of poor design is that? I have a master's degree in computer science. I can't imagine what non-computer-sciency people would do.
I'm pretty happy with this device. Giving it four stars, because I don't know how the range compares to others in the market.
Por el excelente precio, realice una segunda compra, no obstante el repetidor que me llegó no es el mismo que se muestra en las fotos (el de la primer compra si lo es, en la segunda compra no), sin embargo tiene las mismas características y es la misma marca, probablemente sea el mismo modelo pero actualizado, aunque no me termino de convencer el diseño, es algo más redondeado y las antenas solo permiten bajarse o subirse, no movimiento lateral, a diferencia del de la foto que si lo permite, es un detalle mínimo y el dispositivo está funcionando a la perfección y son detalles que no me afectan, una compra que sigue siendo muy recomendada.
I purchased this product to increase my WiFi range outside of the house.
Plugged into a extension connected to an outside wall outlet.
The signal increased from RSSI - 76 dBm av to RSSI - 57.5 dBm at a distance of 30 metres (Yanks think yards).
At 65 metres the signal is - 65 dBm dBm.
There still is an acceptable signal at 100 metres.
Very impressed.
Now at the end of the day with a glass of beer or red wine or both I can waste my time on the internet with a strong signal.

Pros:-
1. Easy to install.
Cons:-
1. Wifi speed drops significantly. I use my main router on a second floor and i have 50Mbps plan. Even the weakest signal from my main router gives a speed of around 15-18mbps on first floor of my home. When I connect to this device, I only get a speed of 1.5 - 2 mbps at same spot.(extender was also installed at the same spot).
2. It also drops your wifi connection frequently. Even if only 1-2 devices are connected. I have experienced even in 1meter range of this device.
Overall: product is not worth it.
