Review: Awesome product! It solved my slow speed issues!!! - UPDATE: I've been using this for almost two weeks now with absolutely no issues. It continues to do exactly what it claims to be able to do. Awesome! I have a Nighthawk X4S AC2600 Smart WiFi Router Model R7800 that I've had for awhile now and it's connected to AT&T's provided ARRIS BGW210-700 modem. My 2500 SqFt two story home was built back in 2007 with a sort of central box where all the wires come in and go from which happens to be located upstairs at the very front of the house in our walk in closet. This has not been the greatest place to have a wireless router, in fact it's been terrible! Recently AT&T was finally able to send greater speeds through our fiber optic lines in our area so we went back to them and bumped our speed up to 300Mbps. Well almost immediately we were suffering with very low speeds down stairs, on the sides and the back of our home. We were consistently only getting speeds from 1 to 28Mbps...seriously. Everything was lagging or not connecting at all. I'm fairly good when it comes to getting everything hooked up but I fall short when it comes to solving these problems. Several times I almost called out a service tech to try and troubleshoot it but I didn't want to spend the money to find out it was something simple. My research led to trying a whole house mesh type product but I didn't want to fork out the dough for a bunch of extenders all over the house just in case it wasn't needed. Finally I came across this device here on desertcart and it's was on sale and had great reviews. I liked that it's a Netgear product and should connect seamlessly to and truly become an extension of my existing router. I wouldn't even have to manually reconnect everything to it or change passwords, etc. Well no lie, I took it out of the box, walked it upstairs and plugged it in to power next to my Nighthawk router. The quick start instructions were very simple explaining to hit the WPS button on the extender and then on the router...within minutes it connected to the 2.4Ghz signal. Then I repeated the same process to connect it to the 5Ghz signal which again only took a couple of minutes. After that was done and all the lights were lit properly I walked it downstairs and plugged it in to a central location in the living room on a faux fireplace mantle. Within a couple of minutes all the lights came on and showed all was connected properly. I then sat down and ran my usual test Googleing 'speed test' from my favorite chair in the living room where I have been consistently getting those awful slow speeds. WHAT?! See the attached image with the white background of the test results. I almost wanted to cry tears of joy! I am finally getting pretty darn close to the speeds that my router is getting from the modem (see black background speed test from the router)! And this is with having 25-35 devices being connected...outdoor and indoor security cameras, multiple iphones, ipads, a few video game consoles, 3 apple tv devices, a couple of smart tvs, 5 computers, a couple of desertcart Alexa devices, multiple guest devices and so on and so on. Now I know this is my set up and my experience. A lot of people have different modems and routers from different manufacturer's even and I can't speak to how this will work with them, but I can honestly say this was worth every penny and the slow speed/terrible signal thing is a thing of the past! Woohoo!!
Review: AWESOME, INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE - This WiFi Mesh Extender increased Internet speeds 70% with no signal dropping or slowing down. No more slow circles when streaming! The problem: My modem & router (Spectrum) located in my office and computer gets 116-118 Mbps download and 11-12 Mbps upload. Single story home with 1,500 sq. ft. I couldn't get any more than 20-28 Mbps download and 8-9 Mbps upload on any of my devices in my living room or bedroom (farthest from Router) using a plug-in extenders and would drop signal sort of ruining the streaming experience. Extreme frustration!!!! With the NETGEAR Nighthawk Mesh X6S Tri-Band WiFi Mesh Extender I now get an average 117 Mbps download and 12 Mbps upload on ALL my devices even in the farthest "dead zone". I even went outside to the farthest corner of my lot (about 80 feet from the Netgear extender) and still got 112 Mbps download on my Samsung Note 8. The unit was easy to install (even for this 75-year old), and being able to use the same access point name a real plus. I installed it eight days ago and the speed and performance have been flawless. It looks sleek and modern and I like that the antennae are inside the unit. While it seemed a bit pricey at first, it's sure less expensive than the other mesh systems I looked at. For me it is worth every penny! I did download the User Manual from the Netgear website before I ordered - be sure to use the model number shown above (the one here on the desertcart site is for a different model-??) There is a wealth of information and help onsite as well. I couldn't be happier with this amazing extender. Highly recommend!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be hardwired to router? Need WiFi on opposite side of concrete wall and would run cable through wall to connect to this.**
A: I just had a client buy three of these to extend their current WiFi network at a Behavioral center and it works as advertised even in "Access Point" or in other words "Bridged Mode," for the seamless wifi. So that means we connected a Cat5e ethernet cable from the main router, to this product and that is the way it extends the current wifi.

Downside (and Upside depending on how you look at it) is that for Smart Connect to be enabled, all three networks 2.4GHZ, 5Ghz (1700mbps) and 5Ghz (800mbps) must be the same SSID and password. I would not deploy this into a business larger than a small business as this product is design for home usage. If you are deploying for an enterprise setting, I would stick to Aerohive.

Otherwise, whether you are extending via WiFi, or via Cat5e ethernet at home or for a small business, this is a great product!

**Q: How far away from the router can you place this device?**
A: I am sorry that people are not answering your question correctly (1 router and CAT5 cable answers do not address your question).  This is a wireless device, so it does not require a wired connection (it can have wired but not required).  Depending on what obstacles are between this extender and your router, this extender may be able to be 100 feet to 150 away from your router.  Wireless N range is approx 160 feet.  The wireless AC is 5 GHz and 5GHz does not achieve the same distance as 2.4 GHz.  5GHz can sometimes connect at greater distances (100 feet maybe) but speed is greatly decreased.  This extender creates a dedicated connection to the router, so that Fastlane feature may enable greater distances. I have not tested mine for max distance. If I have time to test, I will update my answer.

**Q: Can I use more than one of these mesh repeaters?**
A: Yes 100% I'm currently using two in our house.

**Q: Approx range?**
A: The range is very good. I have a home that's 2100 sq feet, I get great WiFi in all areas of my home and I have a shop that is 130 feet from the house and I receive WiFi there also.

### ⭐ It became an expensive paperweight after less than two months.
*by G***J on March 7, 2019*

When I received my Netgear EX8000 I set it up. Setting up wireless network devices has become very easy so, it only took a few minutes. It did just what you'd expect a range extender should. The range was better than I expected and covered a wider area than other extenders I've used or setup for clients. Just shy of 2 months I noticed a massive drop in signal strength. When I went to look at the EX8000 I noticed that every light was flashing green simultaneously. I then tried connecting a computer up to it via a wired connection to reboot it through the interface. The page wouldn't load up. I then tried pressing the reset button which did nothing (not even a single change in how the lights flashed). As a last resort, I unplugged it for over a minute and plugged it back in. I came back 5 minutes later and all the lights were still flashing green. I then left it unplugged overnight and plugged it back in. This time I watched the lights for a good 7 minutes. Not once did the lights change from their flashing pattern. After trying various things over the next few days it was apparent that the EX8000 was "bricked". It seems very odd for a device that has been on the market as long as the EX8000 has to go out after less than 2 months. It was kept in an area that maintained a 78 degree (Fahrenheit) temperature with plenty of room around it. This experience has left me reconsidering recommending Netgear to even my client's home networking needs. One should get years, not months of use out of any equipment. In all my years of working on computers, upgrades have only been required for faster more capable equipment. I have a lot of old equipment that is 10 to 20 years old that still work for many clients who have less demanding needs. I've heard of disposable equipment, but this is ridiculous!
