        Set up did not work and had to spend over 1 hour with online support to complete set up. After that it did not seem to make any difference in range.

              Product worked great for 3 days then just stopped working. Just received replacement from B&H today. If it works over a long period of time then I will be very happy with it. I am always happy with B&H as a company, and the exchange went very smoothly.

                The coverage in my house was poor on our deck and other places but the RE 1000 extended the coverage to all these areas. The most amazing part is the simplicity of the setup and the fact that you can plug it anywhere there's an AC outlet.

                Less powerful than I expected

                      I thought this would provide a more powerful signal than my Verizon Wireless Modem. When I installed it near the router, the signal in the areas where the Verizon Modem signal was usually low was still low. I had to find a location between the wireless modem and the problem areas of the house to install the Range Extender. This gave me better signal strength in the previously weak areas. Overall, works pretty well, even though it was not what I expected.
