Review: WiFi Range Extender




I have been needing something to boost and improve my internet connection and speed on my laptop (which I use in my room, and the WiFi router is somewhat far in the living room). My laptop receives poor connection. The bars are constantly low and unreliable even though we have Fios 100 Mbps. I am a student that regularly has to turn in tests and assignments online. This WiFi range extender has worked perfectly for me! I have been using it for a while now, and I have noticed a huge difference in the connection and speed. The signal has remained strong! I am impressed with the strength of the signal. It even sends out a signal to the driveway, which is about 35 feet away! It has created a stronger signal for my laptop; therefore, allowing it to gain better, faster speed. I no longer feel that I am running against the WiFi connection clock to turn in my assignments. It is a good idea to keep the extender plugged in somewhere in the room or near the areas where you need it (maybe the hallway), so it can pick up a good signal from your router and send it to where you need it most.

I did the speedtest several times and this is what it averaged:

With the range extender: Download 108.80 Mbps, Upload 45.14 Mbps

Without the range extender: Download 28.43 Mbps, Upload 20.63 Mbps.


You can buy this on Amazon.
