What customers say about "Key Specs"

NETGEAR EX6150-100UKS 1200 Mbps Dual Band Gigabit Wifi Range Extender

Fast speeds and dual bands. Great unit.
Works well and easy setup, speeds are very good on AC.
The power and coverage was surprising.
Wi-Fi connection from the room has a extremely poor connection speed.
The WiFi range and signal did not improved wifi much and also speed were slowed down.

TP-LINK RE450 AC1750 Universal Dual Band Range Extender

Best range extender i've used - full 350mb speeds on 5Ghz.
I set it up with my access points downstairs and took it upstairs to the hallway, and now all rooms are serviced so well with a decent wifi speed.
These are awesome, the 5ghz pushes out the exact bandwidth of my router and probably more if you have a speedy connection.
Before install we were getting very low speeds, and contentious drop outs. WiFi signal is now stable and not far off full speed is available.
Signal speed hadn't improved much, only by 5 mbps.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"

NETGEAR EX6150-100UKS 1200 Mbps Dual Band Gigabit Wifi Range Extender

Easy to install and set-up. Great size.
Ideal size for home and office.
Great little device that does as advertised, small and not heavy at all.
Small size, Great range, good price.
This thing is large especially by comparison to my older extender.

TP-LINK RE450 AC1750 Universal Dual Band Range Extender

It fits in a double socket well enough without hindering the adjoining socket.
It’s small enough that it’s not hogging more than a single standard wall socket. Great stuff!
A compact, nice looking unit that was very easy to set-up.
My only gripe would be that it is larger than I imagined, being the size of a large 'plus' size phone.
Bigger than I envisaged so check that you are happy with the size.

What customers say about "Features"

NETGEAR EX6150-100UKS 1200 Mbps Dual Band Gigabit Wifi Range Extender

It just works. Been running two for 6 months, no drops, no reboots, no bother.
Great extender, simple installation and doesn't cut the speed in half.
Great reception and capability, simple plug and play.
Wi-Fi coverage throughout the house is excellent.
It provides good Wi-Fi throughout the house.

TP-LINK RE450 AC1750 Universal Dual Band Range Extender

The tether app is good to check the positioning of the extender itself, very intuitive and a bonus.
Unit was really easy to set up, and the app was useful for deciding on the final position.
A nice feature is that the LEDs can be switched off with a single press of a button, so nobody's sleep will be disturbed.
Easy to use and set up. Light indicators are clear and meaningful.
The only downside is the glaring blue indicator light if it's in a darkened room.
