Easy to set up
This was very close to plug and play, very easy to get set up and use.
The wizard and instructions were very easy to use and understand. I was up and running within 10 minutes.
Range was very good, I have a shed containing all my solar equipment approximately 150 ft away from the house and this unit managed to bridge that distance with very good reception, send and receive so I have a great connection now and can read the date and also send any programming changes as needed.
Great price, and great results highly recommend. Using with a netgear R900 router.

EX6120 OK while it works
I replaced a EX3700 I had for 5 years with the EX6120. The device powers up, both sides have green lights for a couple hours then the device side light will go off. Sometimes the EX6120 will power back up and both sides have green lights. Other times I have to manually turn off/on the EX6120. This happens 2 - 3 times a day. I upgraded the firm ware, I have swapped for another EX6120 and still having the same issues. I am 40 ft from the router and 75 ft from the device I want to connect to.

Reaching Out
I purchased this extender for my wife's computer. The computer is in the upstairs bedroom, probably as far from the router that one can get. I had another extender hooked up but she often complained that her computer wouldn't come up or it kept dropping its connection. I purchased Netgear's EX6120 extender and I am a happy camper now. My wife doesn't complain about connections getting dropped and says her computer connects faster than ever now. Happy wife, happy life. I recommend it highly.

Horrible customer service
I had trouble setting up the booster, I called the customer support line. A lady said someone will called me back. It happened in two minutes. The gentleman was not able to solve my problem . Not only that, he asked me to grant access to my computer , which I in a moment of mental lapse, allowed it. He run something but failed to solve my problem and left me with the impression that my computer may be compromised. However, I read the user manual again and is able to set it up. The product works fine, customer support did not help and leave me in with a sense of discomfort.

Wireless extender woes
So the unit works effectively .
However getting it to link up was difficult .
I tried everything in the instructions and a few standard tricks .
In the end I had to call Netgear.
I got an actual person relatively easily and she talked me through it in twenty minutes .
She had to put me on a special program or one not in the directions .
Works well now but wasted three hours getting it up and running

Incredibly Unhelpful Device
Ultimately the WiFi range extender was of no use as we couldn't get it to work properly. The instructions included were not accurate, when I spoke to their tech support they required that Installed a third party remote desktop software tool to access my computer and then tried to convince me that I had a trojan virus attacking my wifi network and preventing the router installation from working. Then friend to upsell me into buying their firewall protection software. I refused and when I disconnected from the remote desktop connection all issues they were claiming to be occuring disappeared. I ran firewall tests, antivirus scans

Unreliable Connections
The EX6120 has been online, at least plugged in, for about 2 weeks. The 5g and 2.4g connects are very unreliable. When they do allow a connection, mostly to the 2.4g side, it will drop without any foreseeable reason. Also, the download speed on the EX6120 is slower than the older Netgear extenders installed. I have update the firmware on the extender and also checked for updates for multiple laptops used.

Does the job
I have been using the Netgear WiFi extender for few days now. I do have WiFi connection now in the “ blind spots” after using the extender. However, couple of things, the unit itself get very hot plus I had to reset it couple of times because the light, on the unit, it turns amber color instead of green which it indicates no reception. I will continue to test it for couple of weeks and see. I was hoping a better reception but again will do the job for now...

Was hoping to buy a good range extender to replace a WD that I didn’t think was working up to par. Sadly I am going to pull the WD out of storage. The range on this one isn’t as good and it doesn’t take the networks name the way the WD did do therefore the networks seem to fight with each other?

Easy setup
This extender works as expected. It gives us the availability to reach all outside cameras on one router. At some point I would like to use as an access point, but at this moment it is just an extender. We can now use the wifi reliably on the back patio and even in Grandma’s yard next door. Set up was a breeze with the WPS feature.

I purchased this product to extend the range of our wifi into our living room. Our router is in the master bedroom at the complete opposite end of the house. It was very easy to install, and it was in use within a few minutes of unboxing. I placed it in our kitchen which happens to be the middle of the house. It has since provided a stable and reliable connection for streaming on our smart tv.

Netgear EX6120 WiFi Range Extender
I purchased the EX6120 to extend the range of my garage door opener monitor. Prior to installation of the extender, the signal from the router to the garage was only 55% max (my garage is about 75 ft from the router. I researched extenders and found the Netgear 6120 had a favorable rating. I decided to try it and after installation, the signal outputs to a consistent 95-100% strength. Connecting the extender was a little tricky at first but read and follow the instructions carefully and it should be a breeze to install. Also, the EX6120 offers an option to extend both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz WiFi ranges which is a plus if needed. I gave it a 5-star rating for ease of use and performance.

location, location, location
We live in an accessory dwelling unit while caring for my elderly parents, The wifi signal did not reach our hacienda but instead of expanding or adding a separate Comcast service, I tried the wifi extender. Initially the result was meh - medium or low signal strength, and slow download speeds - so just *yesterday* I decided to order a mesh system. However, last night I played with the location of the extender (again and found a spot which has improved the signal strength to strong and increased our speed from 4.2 down to slight over 8.0 down. 8.0 down is sufficient for our needs, two adults using four total devices for streaming and browsing. I am going to wait a week to confirm this result is stable before returning the mesh system (which hasn't even been delivered yet!)

Our home is 40 years old. Internet connection is not great so we added this extender to get TV in bonus room over our garage. Extender works great, but the set up was involved. Every device must be reset to the new extended network. Took me 2-3 hours to figure out the setup. Mind you I am a 67 year old grandma. That being said we have used it for a week with multiple devices and love this gadget. It has solved our poor wifi signal.

I use it for a security camera outside using only the 2.4ghz band. It might be defective because it drops quite a bit. However, if it is not defective, then this would get one-star. I compromised with a 3 in case. For a security camera, reliability is very important. When working it is very good!

Deadspot Coverage Fix
I had a deadspot in my house due to duct work blocking the signal. I was able to use this extender to bypass the duct work in the way and get great signal to my one deadspot bedroom. The only issue was I was not able to run dual band with 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz at the same time. Devices could connect to the 5GHz but would not pass data if I had the 2.4Ghz also turned on, But I did not need this function so I am happy with the solution for the price of the device.

Awesome product and customer service
The setup was easy, the extender is high quality, and the built-in Ethernet port is the icing on the cake. I live in a house with 5 people and my WiFi reception was poor because the router was in the basement. Now I get great reception on the second floor and it’s password protected so I don’t have to share! I should’ve bought this years ago.

Just another extender
It handles so of the basics with a WiFi extender but add a single wall and it might as well not exist. Not a very strong signal and will not extend if will just give you the same level of WiFi as you got before from the router if the WiFi from the router is adequate but not great.

Got the job done.
I purchased this to extend WiFi to a detached garage 25 feet from my house. I had a weak signal before and was not able to stream video. After setting up the extender, my signal in the garage was the same as I get in the house. Streaming video in the garage now with no issues. I put the extender in my house about half way between the router and the garage. Works great.

I bought it on the recommendation of the Comcast technician, who thought it would enable me to extend the very limited comcast range. However, I was never able to sync with the comcast modem / router / whatever comes out of the wall. The instructions were inaccurate.

Great Wifi Extender
The AC1200 WiFi Range Extender works better than expected. I bought this for my ps4 which is in my room that is the furthest from my router. Before the extender I was getting about 17 to 24 down on my ps4. I have Comcast and should be getting 100 down. After I installed the extender it shot up drastically to around 60 down. I rarely experience lag or latency problems.

I'm now able to get a strong signal so I don't have to use all my Data while I'm at home. Great product, it's small so it doesn't take up much space and the signal stays strong and doesn't ever cut out. I highly recommend this product to anyone who needs extra reach off their normal Wi-Fi router.

Somewhat Easy Setup
This is my second netgear extender. So far so good. I am a senior and did not have much trouble setting up. The only problem I had was for it to give it an IP address so a friend who checked my install forced one. This might be something I did wrong in the process. My first one lasted 3 years and I set it up without anyone checking my install. The price is right.

We have been having low coverage on top floor for long. Can barely access email, not to mention streaming. But ever since we installed the extender, there's really no speed difference between floors.

Nice Extender
My new Asus Computer would not connect solidly via wireless to my IP Provider's router either close or far away from the router. As a result, I purchased this extender under the assumption that it's electronics would connect without issue to the router and hence transmit that solid connection to my computer. My assumption was correct and now I not only have the convenience of an extender but also a solid connect to my IP. Thank you Netgear.

Netgear AC1200 Extender
I have a Netgear Nighthawk AC1900 Smart WiFi Router. After installing a Ring Doorbell and Ring Spotlight Cam I found that I needed a WiFi boost for both to function properly. After installing the Netgear AC1200 extender both pieces of Ring equipment worked properly. The dBd signal for both went from a marginal signal strength of about 70 down to an excellent signal strength of about 48.

Cut Cable Cord Too
Added the range extender after purchasing the AC1200 modem. I needed to replace the Cox modem we had when I finally decided to cut the cable cord. I had been using their Cisco Docsis 3.0 modem coupled with a Netgear Nighthawk X6 AC3200 router. I have replaced the router with a Nighthawk AX8 also. Happy so far and should be much easier to add additional smart devices to our home.

I ran test speeds prior to set up and after and noticed significant gains. This unit is mated to a Netgear X4S router which had already improved my wifi signal. I do recommend picking up one of these if you have a larger home. I am please with its performance and glad I found this unit.

Greatly Improves WiFi Reception Upstairs and Down
I recently purchased a new TV for my upstairs bedroom, and it needs a WiFi connection for Netflix, etc. The signal was weak, so I ordered a second Netgear EX6120 to place upstairs, and it did the trick. Both the 2G and 5G signals are now very strong throughout our 3200 square foot, two-story house.
BTW, if you're going to sue two of these extenders, I suggest using the on-line installation routine and giving them different names. My downstairs router's networks are named Downstairs2 and Downstairs 5G, the upstairs are Upstairs2 and Upstairs5G. That allows me to dedicate one extender's connections to those areas and to ignore the weaker signals from the other one.

Works, but you'll need help installing it
I got this WIFI extender to make an outside video camera work. My router is towards the back of my house, and the signal would not go to the front, through several inside walls, and the outside concrete block wall. The instructions provided would not get the product to work. I had to call Netgear, and one of their support staff did a number of things with me that was not on the instructions to sync my router with the extender. After that, I just put the extender in an outlet near the front of the house, and there was enough signal to make the outside camera work.

Since my router is on one end if he House I really needed an extension to reach the other side of the house on the second floor. The extender is about in the middle of the house and I have much better WiFi range.

Great WiFi Signal Extender
The NETGEAR EX6120 was a great addition to my three level house. It boosted the signal so I could install HD IP Cameras on the two floors above the router. The Fast Lane technology could not be used because I had to fix the router signal to 2.4 GHz in order for the wireless cameras to work. Set-up instructions could have been a little easier...

This range extender solved my problem. My streaming services would drop out 2 - 3 times an evening so I decided to try a range extender before buying a new router. The EX6120 solved my problem. It was easy to set up via the WPS button. No more wifi drop outs.

Saved the day
I recently moved to a new house that's quite a bit larger. Our router was at one side of the house and my office at the other side. I had some very important meetings that came up quickly, so I rushed this order and prayed it worked. It was super easy to set up and it works perfectly. Neither side feels a degradation in service. It totally saved the day.

Great Extender - easy to setup
I needed to extend my Frontier FIOs Wireless network because the Frontier FIOs Router is terrible at keeping more than 3 devices connected at a time - we have 2 printers, a Rpku and our two cell phones (7 total - the Frontier router drops 45 of them all the time. This Netgear AC1200 keeps all seven online all the time. It was also the easiest wireless device I have ever setup - took fewer than 5 minutes form unboxing to attaching to my network and fewer than 5 minutes more to connect all of our devices. I would highly recommend this extender to anyone.

Works Perfectly
I bought this extender to solve two problems I was having with a child being forced into remote learning at home. The signal in the rom I set up for learning was weak and the camera I set up to monitor the child and room kept losing the wireless connection. This device was easy to set up and the signal in the room is nearly as good as the signal in the room with the wireless router. Plugging the camera directly into the device completely resolved the issue with the camera losing connection because it is now just as good as a direct wired connection I am pleased with it and would buy this device again.

So far so good
I received a workout mirror in January for my birthday that of course requires WiFi. We have it currently upstairs and our WiFi router is down. My mirror never wanted to connect to the net or it would take several tries. I finally just purchased the extender and put it upstairs, and was able to connect immediately. Great purchase and choice for the price!

Worked great as an access point
I tried using it as an extender but it failed miserably. I tried an internet speed test after getting it all set up and connecting my laptop to it and I got like 1 mbps. But I connected it to the LAN ethernet port near my office and set it up as an access point and it worked like a charm, now I'm getting around 90 - 100 mbps! And it's really consistent. Hasn't dropped a connection yet! Great for my second story home office!

Great with good internet service
Our extender is great, but the internet company we use is ok so the extender is only as reliable as the internet...once I direct connected the extender to the router and made it a hot spot, it’s been working amazingly. (This of course means I have a cord running from the basement up to the router. all in all it’s been helpful in aiding with all our virtual needs.

The WiFi extender works great to boost the Wifi signal once it was configured. The only challenge was the initial configuration kept on timing out when it was writing the configuration to the device. The only way to recover was to reset the device and start over.

Setup the Netgear Extender through the WAP. Setup was very quick and easy. I run 2 outdoor security cameras on this unit at 1080P and the Wi-Fi bars are always at the maximum. Great unit. I purchased another no brand name extender and it worked for 2 weeks and failed. Instead of returning it I threw it away. Should have bought a Netgear brand. Very happy with the performance and would buy again.

Complete rubbish
Just purchased via Amazon AC1200 model EX6120 and received today. Does not connect via WPS despite numerous attempts so resorted to connecting with Web Browser setup. Lo and behold the page shown in the Quick Start guide does not cover this model. Even tried factory reset...still no good. What a waste of time and money. So unless you are prepared to pay top dollar (or in my case GBP for top of the line items don't bother!
In addition, when completing a review why do you ask for someone's gender or age? That is tantamount to discrimination as could presume incompetence by being older and as to gender what purpose does that serve?

Drops often, signal strength location sensitive
Three problems on firmware V1.0.0.54_1.0.34:
- Dropped connection between laptop and extender regularly (light on the extender turning from green to red, once per day at least.
- Intermittent traffic - on Windows 10, in Task Manager Performance, could see that a few seconds normal traffic, a few seconds 0.
- Signal strength is very location sensitive. I live in a house with common construction for this part of central North America (wood frame and drwall), so no concrete or steel structure for the signal to go through. Maybe the steel ventilation ductwork interferes in places. There is a huge difference in the signal strength and connection reliability (my previous two comments) depending on where I site this extender. I even resorted to plugging it into an extension cord and moving it around a room a couple of feet at a time, without moving my laptop (or router.) Some spots had better signal strength and fewer drops than others, but none was trouble free. I've never seen another wifi device so sensitive to location. I worked with support, who gave a few ideas, but nothing helped.
I stopped using it and went back to using my wifi router which worked much better, but I got an email recently that there is new firmware. I just loaded firmware V1.0.0.64_1.0.39 (Oct 18, 2021) and will try again. I will comment again if there is any improvement.

Maybe my expectations were too high since I had never used an extender before. I thought the connection speed would be a little closer to the speed of the base router, but it is acceptable.

Good Extender - Website Not
I spent a lot of time trying to get this extender set up because the web page I was directed to did not work as described. It literally took hours before I figured out how to make the site work to set up the device. Once done, the extender works great. However, if for any reason I have to reset it I dread having to go thru the settings up process again.

Good device, could be better
This device works completely as advertised and it has a very stable connection and allows wireless coverage throughout my entire house. My only issue with it is, instead of the device meshing with my existing home network, it creates additional SSIDs. Mesh routing systems have the ability to incorporate different routers on a single SSID whereas this extender creates a new network name. This is fine for devices that have the ability to smart switch between SSID with the strongest connection, but not all devices have that luxury. I would like to see an extender that can mesh with your home network under a single SSID. Overall I am very pleased with the device which is why I gave it a 4 star rating!

I found this very difficult to connect to my Netgear router and couldn’t figure out a way to contact Netgear Support. Finally asked a neighbor who is a programmer to set it up. He tried the two ways the manual describes, then said “Looks like we’re going to have to go old school.” Still don’t know what he did, but it’s working now. Should be that difficult.

I made the mistake of doing a factory reset on changing my modem/router, which. After several frustrating days of internet phasing in and out, I found the extender's address (not at the usual, due to the router using a nonstandard IP where I upgraded the firmware. Since then, it's been fine, but it several days I'm glad to not have to relive.

jokes on the buyer
Says easy 5 minute set up, hassle free. I spent 2.5 hrs with the router plugged in next to a 4 month old Nighthawk wifi6 5g router...it never would link in either 2.4g or the 5g bands. Couldn't get closer as I set it onto the router. LEDs never lit up on the device side. Surprise turning it off and back on did nothing... Nor did unplugging it and plugging it back in. In short even with decades in IT work I couldn't get this to link up. Now maybe I had a bad one...but having all instructions and set up based upon if you can get the extender to link n make its own WiFi network to log into should be a router only thing. On day 3 it melted. Got so hot plugged into a wall outlet the plastic case melted...I had given up and taken the WiFi extender upstairs to see if it was just stubborn and it melted like a toddler throwing a tantrum. Output tested fine by an electrician no other things plugged into that output have melted. All in all a wild item never worked and the spontaneously melts into a puddle of goo. Not gonna recommend unless you like frustration and a clean up.

The whole house is 1600 SF and I bought this to cover a small portion farther from the main modem/router. Setting up went smooth and indicators show that 1- It's set up and connected to my WiFi, and 2- My device is connected to the extender. When I connect my cellphone or laptop to extender, it literally gives me Zero speed. After a month of battling everyday, I decided to just trash it. So disappointed!!

We have really enjoyed our router signal extender. Now my son can sit at his desk in his room to do his college courses in peace and quiet. Thank you so very much and Merry Christmas.

difficult to configure
Setting it up is easy but it defaults to an SSID _Ext. To change the SSID is a real pain and can only be done by first resetting back to factory settings.

Not for long distances :/
Unfortunately, this booster didn’t work for me. I am living in a tiny home on a property with multiple rentals which have their own Wi-Fi’s. I’m parked a 5 second walk distance to the nearest one and I can connect my booster to it and get my phone to connect to the boosted network but it’s slow and doesn’t work! Yes, I did plug it in between my home and the router…

Had to return
Did not get a connection. When I registered it on line, I got an unsolicited call from Netgear support who said it would cost me $119 for a year for some software. I said I would have to get an OK from my wife who would be home until later. He told me if she did not approve he would remove the software. Then he emailed me a bill and denied what he told me when I told him my wife c are home and said no. Since I was still getting a week signal I returned it to Amazon.

Works "slick" after setup; but setup was a bear
Recently, I purchased this Netgear WiFi Range Extender (EX6120 to extend/boost my WiFi signal into areas of our home (like the lanai) that were not getting a strong signal. Once I FINALLY got this unit setup, it's performance has exceeded my expectations. However, IMHO, Netgear's setup app for this unit STINKS! On my Apple Mac computer, this app would start to run and then without warning quit! It almost seemed like there was a timer set to only allow you so much time to enter the setup parameters (if you were doing the web-based interface, non-WPA, method). This happened to me WAY TOO MANY TIMES. NetGear needs to work on their setup app and improve it. If this app worked better, I would have probably given their unit 5 stars.

Died
Bought it for security cameras. Noticed that after several months of working normally it began progressively overheating and disconnecting until it wouldn't stay connected at all. Setting it up was also an issue because you could not connect to it from the main network that it was extending. You can only configure it by connecting to the device itself.

Greatly Improved Signal and Speed
My TV and wireless printer were having trouble with poor wireless signal. Both devices are within 30ft of the main wireless router, and separated by multiple walls or ceiling/floor.
Installing the NetGear Wireless Extender at a mid point has boosted the wireless signal from two bars to now a solid five bars. This has allowed the TV to now stream 4K video and the printer to print faster and without timing out from loss of signal.

Nothing connects
Purchased early this year and was able to access website to link the extender to my wifi. Extender shows up as available network option but devices can never function on that network. Fast forward to getting a new router. Could no longer access the webpage to link the extender to the wifi, so it promptly went into the trash once the recording to reach customer service said I had to pay for assistance. Junk with a side of extra junk. I’ll just move my router around like I’ve been doing.

After 3 months, I had to return it due to its over-heating. When this occurs, it loses contact with my modem. The cost to ship it back via UPS was almost $17 which is about 2/3 the cost of the unit in the first place. Hopefully, the replacement will be of better quality.

Great addition to home tech
I bought this because our Fios TV mini wireless boxes kept turning off on the upstairs while watching. We learnt that this was due to a weak wi-fi signal as our router is based in the basement. It was easy to set up, and in a house with multiple devices, once we connected all the other devices to the connections (2G and 5G) broadcasted from the extender, we stopped having connectivity issues entirely.

Wifi Extender
So far, this extender has been wonderful. It produces no noise like my old extender and it's throwing a signal out into our TV room which is the last room in our house and the room that is farther away from the office where the wifi is coming from. It's a fraction of the size of my old extender and the color is good because it just sort of blends in. Awesome product.

Teenager approved
The second story of my house did not get a great signal from the router so I purchased this network extender to appease the teenager. I tried a network extender years ago with no success but that was not the case here. I'm honestly so surprised at how well it works and how FAST everything is. It was an easy set up process near the router then we just had to find the best location upstairs and all set. More importantly the teenager has happily receded to his cave to stream and game without lag.

I've used several Range Extenders from other vendors in the past and clearly the Netgear AC1200 Dual Band Range Extender (EX6120) is by far the best and most reliable extender. During the setup process I contacted the support center to get a couple of technical questions answered and found the support team agents to be the best I've worked with.

Great for the price.
I now have 2 of these extenders! Great price for a small yet powerful device. Netgear does need to provide better instructions for setup. The website in instructions kind of takes you on a loop. You have to trial and error to figure things out. It help of you have troubleshooting experience and know you way around extenders.

Bad extender
This is a really bad extender, I have a samsung s23 ultra and two ecobee thermostat that have better reception that this extender from my main router and even when I get connected to this extender it slows my internet from almost 500mb/s to around 10 mb/s and if I get connected directly with my phone to the main router I can reach 40mb/s and with my phone I am further away than the extender.

I worked with a technician from NETGEAR for about an hour and a half. She could not get the Extender to work. It would only see my modem at a distance of four feet. At 12 feet down the hall, it could not connect. I returned the Extender to Amazon.

Reliable
This is the first range extender I've bought and after looking up reviews I found this one. I had no idea how easy it was to connect to my router and I haven't had not one problem with it ever since. I love when products connect so easy and never have any issues. I had called customer support for advice on connecting it but by the time the customer service tech got connected to me it was already connected and running properly. The service tech just went over a few things with me and viola. Done. Great product, price and very reliable. It's been a week since I bought it and connected it to my router and not one issue.

A bait slow and balky
Even with connection to a Netgear based wifi network this extender is slow and fitful. It took multiple tries and hub restarts to get it to connect. Now that is is connect it takes multiple tries for every device to establish initial connection (some never do). This seems to be speed of communication between the wifi hub and the extender. Once connected it seems pretty good, but many devices do not have the 'patience' to await communication between the extender and the hub.

Setting up the Wifi range extender
I wasn't able to go to the easy route and set up of the Wi-Fi range extender, as my modem had no button in order to do so. Thus, I had to go through the browser and ended up speaking with someone, as I couldn't figure it out. Language was definitely a barrier, but we pushed on through to the other side!

Boosts WI-FI
As someone who works from home, having a strong and reliable WiFi signal is crucial for my job. I was struggling with a weak signal in my home office and it was affecting my productivity. After doing some research, I decided to purchase the NETGEAR AC1200 WiFi Range Extender (EX6120) and I am so glad I did! The range extender was easy to set up and has significantly boosted my WiFi signal. I can now work without any interruptions or slow loading times. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who works from home.

Ex6120
I bought this in hopes of helping the home internet to improve upstairs. I could not get it set up and had to call support. After a long call of trying everything I already done, he asks about my existing settings on my router. If your internet already is using the wpa3/wifi6 it wont work. I had to change my home internet to the wpa2 settings. It did connect but did not make any improvements. It made everything in my house horrible. All options I had with and without extender did not have have the internet in a working state to keep using that configuration.
I returned this and bought a linksys that has wifi6 and set up in two secs vs tons of time and works like a champ. Verify home internet configurations before buying.

This is the best Wi-Fi extender!
I’ve always had issues in my bedroom with WiFi after countless WiFi extenders and no reason as to why it was like this. I decided to buy the AC1200 WiFi extender and run a cable from the modem to the extender. My room is now as fast as the rest of my house! We have Gigabit speed and this thing was putting out Gigabit speed! I’ve never had a problem with multiple devices while gaming, my ping is 8-10ms and no lag ever! This is honestly the best WiFi extender ever! Thank you Netgear!

works... sometimes
After installing on the other side of the apartment, the extender's 2G and 5G network functioned well. However, within a couple week of installing, it has randomly stopped working with my Android devices on two separate occasions. The devices indicate they see the network with a good strength but every time I ask them to connect, they say they cannot. Restarting the Android devices doesn't work, but rather restarting the Range Extender has... Frustrating!

This Extender Does Not Work!
I have tried to get this extender to work for four weeks. I have had to do many factory resets on the extender in an attempt to get it to work with no success. In some cases, no devices could connect to the internet when the extender was plugged in. Once the extender was unplugged and not active, all devices could connect to the WiFi network. It works about 10% of the time. I have tried the support chat ( which I think is AI based) with no resolution. I am now stuck with this nonfunctioning extender. Do not buy this product!

Constant disconnects ruined it
I use and appreciate many Netgear products over the years, since I am an IT manager. However this Wi-Fi extender repeater is definitely not one of them. It constantly disconnects from the routers, which I tested with two different routers. The couple times I did get it working properly, a reboot or touching any setting at all made it completely unresponsive again. Forced to return unfortunately

Finally working well after replacing firmware
Finally working well... after replacing Netgear firmware with OpenWRT. I would give the hardware a rating of 4 and the firmware a rating of 0. I tried 4 different Netgear firmware versions, and it performed poorly with all of them. (See my previous 1-star ratings as NotAHappyUser and NotAHappyUserStill.) Replacing Netgear firmware with OpenWRT was easy to do (finding the right instructions and version takes a bit of digging, though) and ended up taking me less time to install and learn how to set up & use than the *hours* I wasted trying to get this to work with Netgear firmware. I found the OpenWRT UI straightforward and its default configuration is probably good for most people. You might need to be more experienced than your average user to modify its configuration.

Unreliable/Inoperative
Bad experience. I needed an Ethernet connection to a device less than 20’ from the primary router. The EX6120 sets up OK but the 5g will only intermittently broadcast but does not connect to the primary router. Typical 2.4g Wi-Fi speeds are below 5% of that at the router, considerably less than using a Wi-Fi adapter.
I am frequently unable to connect to the device html page, receiving a protocol error. A power reset seems to clear that problem. There are no known diagnostic tools for the device except the cute picture on the homepage, but only when it works.
Tech support was patient and helpful but repeatedly took me through the same scripted setup as I had previously performed and achieved identical results. The final recommendation was to take it up with the seller (Amazon). Very disappointed the manufacturer would not stand behind their product.
I replaced it with a mesh network, from another manufacturer, that set up easily and has operated flawlessly with speeds of 30-50% of that measured at the router. I could still use the netgear extender in another application, but it needs to function first.
I am a retired network engineer with advanced certifications from many core business equipment providers and hold advanced radio licenses. I may be a frustrated old man, but I am not a newbie to technology.

Connection drops; bad firmware & maybe hardware?
I have loaded the 4th firmware since I bought this - the one that came with the device, and updates to V1.0.0.54, V1.0.0.64 and now V1.0.0.66.
The same problems I had with previous firmware versions are still here, and discovered more.
I've worked with this enough that I suspect buggy firmware, possibly problems with the browser interface, and that I might have defective hardware.
My extender is out:
- out of warranty
- out of support
- out of the house on its way to e-waste recycling
Netgear Consumer Affairs: there is no need to respond to this post suggesting I go through the troubleshooting link and contact support. I've done both, along with trying many other things to resolve the problems. Nothing has helped.

Easy install, quality product
The setup took only a few moments before it was ready to go. The relatively compact design helps with not taking up too much wall space and leaves the other outlet slot open, which is great. There was not a single thing I found to be wrong or broken on my product. Just remember: wifi extenders do not help with increasing your internet speeds. This helps with your computer or device not being able to detect your home wifi or for when it barely connects. The download speeds will remain the same. If you are looking for increased download speed, check your system’s hardware and consider a wifi adapter or mesh system if you have the money.

I still have not gotten the extender to either extend or become an access point for my WiFi. It is connected without internet. It is very frustrating. I had higher hopes.

Works Perfectly
Got this to extend my WiFi signal to an outside security camera. The signal was much stronger after installing this extender. It was very easy to set up and took hardly no time. Push button setup made things go easily and super fast. Highly recommend this extender.

WiFi Range Extender
Bought this to have reliable 5G wifi where wifi was weak and dropped users. It was easy to set up and gives me good signal strength where I need it. Good choice.

Solid for price
This is my second NETGEAR Range Extender as I liked my first one. It doesn’t have a huge range but it gave my network the boost it needed to reach out to the garage. I’ve found updating it through the website to be extremely difficult though, borderline impossible on my phone…I had to transition to my laptop and even then I had to repeatedly clear my browsers cache to access the updates.

I bought this unit so I could have Wifi out at my detached garage. After set-up was completes in my home I went out to the garage and connected my television to the Wifi extender, and it worked great. Now when I am having trouble with one of my vehicles, I can look up solutions on my television. Great product.

Works to extend range. Note that this does not cure all ills. You need to know your equipment. You need to know what your actual issues are.: Range, 2 / 5 GHz compatibility, fluctuating wifi signal, bandwidth, etc.

The Netgear AC 6120 exactly what I needed.
I purchased the Netgear AC 6120 because my Xfinity modem was not allowing my Epson WF 7520 Was not being allowed to mean he was the router do the some security measures. So I purchased in Netgear AC 6120 Extender/repeater Because it will allow me not only to communicate with my printer was 24 other devices! And call me important or the following benefits 1. Once you register your device For the one year TECH support. You login with your original screen name and password then then you log on to the AC 6120 extender/Repeater look for your screen name with the abbreviation EXT Selected login with your original password for the morning and I also do the same with my laptop to ensure the communication with my printer Epson WF 7520 with no problem. 2.) if you need to relocate the AC 6120 extender/repeater you could do that with no problem. Unplug it find it the outlet do you want plug it in there wait 3 to 4 minutes for the morning to Reconnect. Cannot do this with other extenders/Repeaters I have tried.. in the price range with Netgear products such as the AC 6120 extender/repeater is not only reasonable but very well worth it! And I am very much like the size of the AC to 6120 extender/repeater. And I’m very glad that they have a ethernet port that you can use for gaming or other devices that need Internet connection. And you could use the light indicators on the AC 6120 extender/repeater to help you find the best location for the AC 6120 extender/repeater to pick up the Wi-Fi signal from your modem if the light is Red that is not a good place if the light is Amber that’s a good place if the light is green as the best place. And usually best to have the AC 6120 extender/repeater somewhere about halfway between your modem and the Area where you want to enhance your Wi-Fi signal. I am very glad that I was able to find this Netgear AC 6120 extender/repeater. I asked my cable provider to help me with this issue for four months and they could not help me resolve it at all. But I happen to speak to a friend who recommended trying the Netgear AC to 6120 extender/repeater!!

It loses the connection to the wifi router often
This had great ratings and was easily installed. I got it to boost my wifi signal to my upstairs bedrooms as I live in a 1200 square foot two story apartment and it receives a great signal from my wifi router downstairs. Yet 4-5 times a week the cameras go off line and i have to reboot this wifi extender to reconnect them to the network. Also it rarely shows the 5.0 network as available. It is quite frustrating for my husband.

Works well for 1 Year
I purchased this over a year ago along with another wifi extender. Initially the set-up was very quick and easy and so I opted for using this extender. However, after a year and a few months (once the warranty ended I noticed the extender no longer broadcasted the wifi signal. I attempted to unplug and plug back as well as initiating a full reset on the unit. However, nothing worked. What was interesting was that although there was a tactile feedback from the reset button, no reset was initiated despite holding the button up to 10 seconds, beyond the 5 seconds suggested.

After 3 hours with Netgear tech support, could not get extender to go beyond 30 MBS (router is at 300 MBS and without extender we have 60 MBS); we replaced the unit with the same result. So, basically the unit was useless. I returned it for credit to Amazon.

Great little extender!
I need to have an extender for wifi. I am so happy with the performance of this small but powerful unit. The wifi in our house was not great. It is a split level ~160sq Ft with a large back deck. I could never get a signal on the deck or with more than 4 devices on the wifi. Now after purchasing this extender I can sit out on the deck and get great wifi for a computer, iPad and phones without problem. I am very happy with my purchase.

Best Extender Ever
I bought this because my roommate has the router but I needed a direct Ethernet to my Pc and I didn't want to wire around the house. This works amazingly. Granted I don't have the best PC components in the world but I was able to run PubG, Apex, and Rocket League with ZERO lag or packet loss.
The setup was a little tedious, I was having issues getting onto the website but I manually enter the IP for the extender and it worked smoothly after that.
10/10 would recommend!!

Slow and poor connection
Only the 2G did connect to my router with WPS, but I could not get the 5G to connect. When using the internet with the 2G.. sometimes there was no internet connection, and other times it was very slow. Not a good extender for fiber internet connection. I got the upgraded version the 1800 of this and it works fine with 5G and fiber WiFi.. That model is better for what I have.

I have the EXT set in 5ghz. My modem is about 25 feet down a hallway from the EXT and it still only gets about 100 megabits/s. It also loses connection frequently. I'm not sure if it's a defective model but with a product like this, I expect the technology to be true and the reliability to be constant.

Works but not as described
Setup with WPA button worked however. the WPA light only comes on during setup when it flashes. After setup the WPA light goes out. WPA setup is working as verified with technician. Range extender speed is very fast.

Works very well for me - highly recommend
My WiFi is located in my back office. It often disconnected in my living room where I use my cell phone in my La-Z-Boy.
After installing the EX6120 and finding the best location, I get perfect reception.
Well done!

Not that impressed
It was very difficult to set up, since the written instructions didn't really reflect reality. So I had to spend 45 minutes on the phone with customer service to get it working. I haven't used it much since then, but I notice the lights on the unit keep glowing red from time to time -- a sign it's not working. It's not the

Great Improvement
I'm so happy with my improved connectivity since installing the Netgear AC1200 WiFi Extender. My connection to the WiFi used to get lost all the time. That is a rare event now since the easy installation.

Great for condo buildings
Gives a great signal throughout a condo - concrete block building!
Reasonable price for the better coverage.

Superb Extender for Cat 5
Use this for my Insugnia smart tv. The WiFi receiver on the TV became unreliable, yet Lan connection worked fine. There was no simple way to bring a cable from the main internet router, but this worked quite nicely. Delivers a consistent 100 Meg speed (router 5G speed is 150)

Almost Returned
Needed the EX6120 extender for two Ring devices. Standard setup resulted in daily disconnect from the router requiring a power cycle to reset. Problem was resolved by configuring the extender to connect to the router via 5g while continuing to run the Ring devices at 2.4g. Everything appears to be running well at this point with no disconnects. Appreciate the different configuration options with this extender.

NETGEAR - GREAT
Purchased the NETGEAR so that I could get a better signal to complete my remote work. So far it has been a life saver keeping me connected to my employer websites without any disruptions. Would purchase again.

Works after some work
Got this to extend wifi into the black hole that is the Breezeway. Wps didn't work but thats because spectrum stopped using wps. Went through the manual setup and connected both the 5g and 2.4g. Got to the part where you connect another device to the extended wifi and it said no internet for the 5g but connected to the 2.4g. Talked to support for an hour and they said I may need to return it because it was defective. I tried one more time, but now I only extended the 5g. It works great now. Still don't know why it doesn't work with the dual band. Would recommend if you know how to work with electronics.

EX6120 range limited
I purchased the EX6120 to extend my router's range. While it extended the range slightly, it has certainly fallen short of reasonable expectations.

Just what I needed
Net gear extender solved my problem! I have a device that requires a 2g bandwidth and my internet provider only provides 5g. I used the Netgear extender to give me the 2g network. Perfect!

Great little device
The range on my modem/router left a lot to be desired but this handy little device made it possible to use my TVs and other devices requiring internet access from one end of the house to the other.

good when connected
Extender works nicely when it stay connected.
Added perk is the extra steps you get going to and from it to reconnect.

Does not work
I would return this except for the fact that it’s past the return date purchased on Amazon. It does not connect using the WPS button even though my router has WPS. I have had to call Netgear tech twice and it still isn’t working properly. The device light goes between red and green. I would not recommend.

Netgear is an extraordinary company
Years ago, when I complained to an IT employee of my ISP (after several failures and resends of a new modem) that their product was bad….she agreed/advised me to go to Staples/purchase a Netgear. Since that time…using the wonderful support through my WONDERFUL contract, ALL my support equipment has been NETGEAR, but really love having such knowledgable and extremely kind NETGEAR SUPPORT employees helping me when I run into issues related to devices. I am not educated in computers. Your support people are wonderful! Thank you for all the care you have given me…so appreciated and NOT SAYING THIS TO RECEIVE A $500 GIFT CARD. Your employees are my gift!!!?? Please thank them for me?

connectivity
couldn’t get it to connect, called customer service and nothing they did helped either. Directions were not. clear and the technician ran out of options as well. Ended up returning it.

Drops Signal
Drops signal despite traiging with netgear. they eventually punted and sent me to my internet provider and basically said it was their problem. they managed to string me along long enough that I couldn't return the extender to Amazon. bought the Assurian support agreement, and that was about as worthless as anything.

This does not work. Very frustrating. I called technical assistance and was told it does not work because I did not purchase Netgear router and security program. What a gyp! Never again Netgear!
