A good deal
I am an happy user of this device! After a few months use, I can say it is an excellent product. What I really appreciated is its versatility. Infact, I am using it as an access point rather than a range extender. Its configuration took only a few minutes: the dedicated smartphone allowed me in setting up the device wihout any pain. The signal is good and the two antennas can be moved in way to extend the signal in the direction required. Despite the intense use, it never reaches high temperature, and this is so important because it helps in offering always good performances. Definitely, I am a satisfied user of this product.

Set up easy but instructions lacking in vital detail
This now works very well but the set up instructions should go on to explain that the device sets up a new sub network which to which your devices need to connect by entering your wifi password. The positioning of the device is crucial. I treid two sockets in the same room on opposite walls only a few feet part. One did not pick up the router signal, the other facing in the opposite direction works perfectly. The tether app is useful even if you did not use it for the initial router connection.

Best wifi extender I have had
This works fantastic I replaced a cheap China one with this now I get great signal in every room .My house is old with thick walls so the cheaper one didn't work ..Setting up with the wps is a doddle .A tip use the wps set up and do it twice as it needs both bands .If you do it manually you won't get the exact same network and it will not work as a true extender .. it must have the exact same ssid to allow connections to flow automatically between the extender and the router using whichever has the best signal ..I seen some reviews where its been set up incorrectly and they think the device is bad ... I have tried a few extenders and this is the best by far.Running multiple Netflix in my kids rooms no problems at all..

Much improved wifi signal.
I bought this wifi range extender to replace the Powerline devices I had purchased a few months earlier, the performance of which left much to be desired. This gadget achieved a superior result in a different way - and furthermore was easy to install and set up.(Edit 9 months later): Easy to set up the first time; not so easy to repeat the exercise a few months later because the device wouldn't reset at first and for some inexplicable reason I was unable to get into the management page until it did. Like so many magic ICT gadgets, it works really well when it works but is a major pita when it plays up. Stars reduced from the original five, to three, for wasting my time.

Well pleased
Very easy to set up with my BT smart hub 2. Plug in somewhere near the router, press the WPS button on the router then press the WPS button on the extender and sit back and wait for it to connect - a couple of minutes. It firstly connected to the 5 GHz signal then I repeated the process and it also connected to the 2.4 GHz signal. I then moved it about halfway between the router and the poor reception area and the blue signal light on the extender showed that it was a suitable position to locate it. Result was a nearly full signal where it was previously at the lowest level of signal. Very happy to recommend this extender

Great for most users
As far as range extenders go, this (RE205) seems to be a good, solid product. However, I've just returned mine after using for 1 day. Setup was easy enough with WPS, however it didn't automatically connect to my 5Ghz network (my 2.4 & 5 use the same SSID), I had to manually add that.The range worked well, my main router is upstairs and this was placed downstairs and got a decent signal out to the garden.So why return it? I use my router to set up various rules for some devices (e.g. parental controls, firewall rules etc). All of these rely on the mac address of the device, unfortunately the RE205 changes half of the mac address meaning everything needs setting up twice.I'm going to invest in a 2nd mesh router instead to save the hassle. However, if mac addresses & firewall rules don't mean anything to you then this will work fine.

Great little device
Bought because daughter wasn't getting WiFi signal in her bedroom she said it's working great no drop outs anymore and keeps a steady connection. She set it all up and said was quite straight forward. Definitely worth buying if u have a poor signal in certain rooms of your house

Wi Fi Routers - Not a good experiencing
I bought two routers for our house.Delivered on time, easy to install however the we fi connection was no better.Agree to return the two routers which were posted in the same box however one unit was credited and one wasn't where Amazon have reported that they did not receive the both units.So I'm very confused and really disappointed
