Wavlink AC1200 Dual Band WiFi Range Extender, Repeater / Access Point / Router / Media Bridge with 4 High Gain External Antenna 1200Mmbps Wifi Booster, 802.11AC, WPS Easy Set Up, WPA, WPA2, Wall Plug

Pros: It was a breeze to set this up as a repeater and extend my Wi-Fi range. Durable construction, those antenna are built well. Easy to reset and reconfigure. Strong signal.

Cons: The only things I didn't like about it were the documentation and the fact is generates some heat.

Overall Review: I had to reset the extender and did not know I had to do so till I contacted support. They gave the right answer 1st try. Wavlink always has great support for their products. This is easy to setup once you reset it if needed. I had it up and running extending and doubling my Wi-Fi range in my parents home in less than 15 min. 5 ghz doesn't seem to work with Altice cable modem / routers but neither does a few of my Linux boxes. 2.4ghz works fine but once I brought it to my parents with a different cable modem / router 5 ghz connected without issue. It seems to get pretty warm when it's plugged in and running but it hasn't melted yet. The signal is good and you only lose one bar approx 40 ft away or it if has to go through a wall or appliance it loses one bar also. Direct line of site full strength signal for 2.5 ghz and 5 ghz across two big rooms in the house. I like the wired access point (AP) feature though I didn't use it yet. The documentation is ok for a quick start, but to configure it you need some basic knowledge or routers/Wi-FI/DNS/IP configuration and settings. But it's nothing complex. But, even if you are a noob, contacting their "aftersales" or tech support department will get you great support.

Pros: This is an excellent and very easy to setup Repeater. It extends the network really well and has a pretty decent range. If you select the Bridge option (instead of Gateway) there is no way to turn off one of the WiFi Networks (2.4Ghz or 5Ghz). HOWEVER, I found a work around if you make the network name blank on setup it then does not run that network. The Repeater tries to suggest using Gateway as a default. I highly recommend you DO NOT do that as a Gateway means it will redo all the protocols and redo the signal before it moves it on. There is a huge performance hit when you do this. I found that if you use this as a Bridge that you get rock solid performance!

Cons: I can't think of any as for the price this thing was super easy to setup and it does the job very well!

Overall Review: A big note: If you are wiring your home to be a smart home (such as switches or light-bulbs) it is important to note that many of these devices do not play well with Repeaters and in some cases will cause your smart home to go crazy. This only happens if the Repeater is using the exact same name as your main WiFi and/or the devices in question are trying to connect to the Repeater instead of the main WiFi. The work around is to make sure the Repeaters Network extension simply has a different name.

Pros: This is my 2nd wifi range extender from Wavlink. Easy to set-up. Works great. Greatly improved the quality of streaming video. This little baby boosted my wifi signal like a pro

Cons: so far so good.

Pros: This thing is amazing! I honestly hadn't expected much, but was VERY pleasantly surprised. We have a wifi network in our house. It works well, except for my wife's computer which is only about 60 feet from our router, but with three walls between the router and her computer. It would hang up when loading websites, and sometimes would never load the page at all. I blamed the problem on the computer or browser; probably the computer, as I was not having a problem with mine, nor did she if she moved it much closer to the router. This WAVLINK wifi repeater arrived about a week ago, so we've had plenty of time to test it. Installation was simple. Any question, just contact wavlink support team, wavlink at aftersales point com, their will tell you how to set up it step bu step. After installed it, My wife's computer problems are gone! All websites snap right up. Not one problem with any of them.

Cons: none

Overall Review: I really love this wifi range extender ! And wavlink customer service is so nice ! you just click the right email button , and send the message to their, their would solve all your problems ! i purchased Verizon repeater last year and it was limited is coverage area. i think it was over $100. this little magic box blows that away. i actually have coverage on all three floors and outside now. only thing is older devises cant take advantage of this.

Pros: Came quickly and in good condition. Great price. Good range. Easy to configure.

Cons: nothing

Overall Review: bigger font on instructions.

Pros: Works perfectly as a router Excellent customer service

Cons: didn't detect any SSIDs, (maybe needed a firmware update?)

Overall Review: I didn't reorder this item, but customer service from WavLink was EXCELLENT. I did order 2 different other WavLink devices at the same time and both worked flawlessly - so I attribute this problem as an isolated and rare occurrence. I would not hesitate to order another WavLink product again.

Pros: You get what you pay for...if you need an extender, it works really really well. Just don't use the ethernet ports for high-speed internet. I really have no complaints, other than that.

Cons: It's a smaller device, and that's why it's so cheap. But that's exactly what I was looking for. It works well. If you're looking for a higher powered device you will have to pay more. Plain and simple.

Overall Review: Great little device!

Pros: This is the best little monster I have ever seen. I use it as a WiFi booster for get my WiFi into the far corner of the living room. I have to have a dependable signal so my health monitoring equipment can be transmitted each and everyday to the hospital

Overall Review: Great item, purchase your own. You will be as pleased as I am. With this little router or booster, it is both. Lots of power.
