Overview
NETGEAR built this extender to plug into a wall outlet between the router and a weak spot, then rebroadcast the Wi-Fi on both bands. Setup is a press of the WPS button, and one Ethernet port serves a nearby console or streamer.
One unit in the wall fixes a dead room with no new router or wiring. Older standards show, since the wired port is slow by current measures and security stops at older protocols.
Who it's for
Bedrooms, garages and back rooms just out of the router's reach. Large homes with many dead zones are better served by a mesh system.
Pros and cons
- Plugs straight into the wall
- WPS button setup
- Wired port for a nearby device
- Works with any Wi-Fi router
- Ethernet port limited to 10/100M
- Security limited to WEP and WPA/WPA2
- Product description is unrelated
Performance notes
An extender repeats the router's signal, so its speed depends on how strong the signal is where it is plugged in. Halfway between router and dead zone usually works, and the Wi-Fi Analyzer app helps find that spot.
