NETGEARWiFi Extender Booster EAX12 | WiFi 6 Repeater | WiFi Booster Range Extender | AX1600 Covers up to 1200 sq ft and 15 Devices

This was easy to setup, press the WPS button on both the extender and the router, et viola! Repeat the process if you have dual band (2.4 ghz and 5 ghz), and it's all set. It needs to be positioned between the router and the blind spot, this is important, as putting it in another blind spot will not give the required outcome. I found a good spot by walking around with my phone, and getting the best signal between the two areas. I then plugged it in there (I had to use an extension cable, for optimum signal), after setting it up next to the router. This actually gave me the signal that I required (excellent and good, constantly), in the area I spend most of my time (laptop, phone and telly, all connected). I am more than satisfied with this product, and would recommend to anyone with signal blindspots. I even purchased a used item (good as new, a return I presume), which as stated, was as good as new. Next day delivery, good price, accurate description. What more could a customer want. Oh yeah, something that works...One proviso, I tried the app (Nighthawk), which led to frustration. It seemed to create problems, so I deleted it and continued with the already working set-up. Not recommended.

Easy west up and works very well

Tried to set up via wifi and ip address but unable to on iPhone set up via wps ok seems to work as described

Setting up not easy and I work in IT. Tried the Nighthawk app and it said the device wasn’t supported. Had to use laptop to configure as phone wouldn’t manage this. Worked OK for maybe two weeks and then started to play up. Wouldn’t connect to the internet. Reset the device three times and have just returned for a refund. I will not purchase again.

Despite having a Netgear Orbi 960 series router and two satellites serving our home, our garden room at the end of our garden still has a bit of a weak WiFi signal... so I thought I'd try this [EAX12] as a cheaper alternative to buying another satellite. It does work... but it's 75% down on speed and it drops connection frequently. I tried a number of changes to the router and various settings... but it was just too unreliable a connection to hook anything critical to it, such as a security camera or even an IoT switch. I also tried the larger, more expensive but similarly performing EAX20 but that was also quite very unreliable. All of them were returned. A shame... as I imagine these work well in some smaller properties or homes with paper thin walls... but not mine. It's looking like I'll eventually have to fork out for an additional RBSE960 after all...

Easy setup and good speed. Very compact and no external aerials

An all round excellent decision made. No antenna so looks considerably smarter than earlier versions and sooo easy to set-up using the inhouse Nighthawk App. Thank you.

Great Product. Manual setup failed, resolved via WPS and now working seamlessly providing reliable wifi in areas previously a problem for the Virgin wifi to get to. Work much better than the Virgin wifi pods that in truth provided a worse performance for me than not using them at all - they have now been returned to Virgin. Netgear technology works so very happy and a great investment.
