Stream Movies and Music, even farther from your router, with this Range Extender
Great, with many different uses, 5 different modes, but it takes you some time to learn how to set it, but once set, works great.

Connect a wired only device to WiFi
Reading many other reviews and seeing what is expected I thought I would share what really works.This device will NOT make your connection faster. It may help if you have some dead spots. It 100% works to deliver a WiFi signal to a device that has a wired (ethernet / RJ-45) connection, but no built-in WiFi.Here is how I used it:1. We have a DirecTV DVR in a bedroom that does not have a wired (ethernet) connection.2. The wife likes to watch on-demand shows that she missed.3. The DVR does not have WiFiI connected it to my laptop (WiFi turned off) using the supplied cable.Connected to http://192.168.10.253 using Chrome.Selected "Repeater" from the menu/It found my home WiFi and I selected that.Clicked on Save and RebootIt rebooted (15-30 seconds)I was then able to take it to the DVR and plug it in (had to use an extension cord since I didn't have a long enough Cat 6 cable ready)Bada Bing Bada Boom. On demand is now working.Happy Wife = Happy Life :)

Either a non-functioning unit or a badly designed product
This item was so well reviewed, it was difficult to understand why it never worked.I bought this extender to replace another that had failed after 3 years' use. I say that to note that I am experienced at setting up and maintaining such a piece of equipment.This extender's instructions were minimal, but I followed them to the letter repeatedly. Connecting with the extender from my desktop was iffy, and seemed to work only about half the time. But even when I could, the extender failed to completely sign in to the WiFi router, in spite of having a strong signal. Therefore, it could never establish a connection with the Internet or with my iPhone.To be certain, I borrowed someone else's extender, and was able to make all the connections. This is not an issue with my office Internet. It IS an issue with this extender. Therefore, I am returning my unit.

Stopped working after 2 days
Really fast delivery. Unit worked at first but after a day or two it will not pick up signal from my main wifi router. I ended up repositioning my router and no luck with the extender, but I did improve my router signal so that I don't need the extender. Sending it back

This review is not for these watches. This was for different item
I was sent this for free to test and evaluate. The following is my honest review.I am updating this to 1 star until the seller or Amazon puts my review back on the proper page. This is NOT a review for a watch. It is a three star review for a wireless range extender! I reviewed it on THAT page. Apparently the reviews are crossed and showing up on this page.Directions. We don't need no stinking directions. Good thing too as the included directions are a joke. What might have started out as real directions in another language have been butchered into teensy words on paper that don't make a lot of sense. If you have minimal tech savvy, find someone with savvy or buy a higher end name brand item with better directions. (Netgear, Linksys, TP-Link, etc...)This took around 20 minutes to set up from start to finish but I am used to setting these little gadgets up. Once set up, it works. It isn't perfect, the signal was around half what my dsl router/modem puts out. I set the extender up three feet from the router/modem for the fairest test. I wanted to see how good it was. I would rate it as okay. Not great, not fantastic, not ideal. Okay.In conclusion, this does work. It will help get a signal to a corner where the signal isn't so great. (I have one where the router/modem signal must travel through two walls, one with plumbing, and the floor to get to me on the ground floor.) I tried the extender in this room next and it did boost my signal by one bar, and kept my cell phone from losing the wifi calling ability while in that area. (Without this extender, wifi cuts out.) This will work, but you need to be reasonable in your expectations. It is a slower connection than being wired in or being directly connected to the main router. Don't expect to stream on this at high speeds. It isn't set up for that. My ROKU never got out of the buffering stage while connected to it.
