What customers say
Customer sentiment centers on the device's sleek design and generally simple setup. Early adopters value the promise of future proof connectivity and speed gains in weak signal zones when paired with a Wi-Fi 7 router. However, the high price point causes many to question the overall value. While peak speeds impress, some users report inconsistent performance, noting connection drops in complex home layouts. The consensus suggests that while the extender offers powerful coverage extension, its real world performance is often limited by existing network infrastructure. This leads to a polarized view between enthusiasts impressed by the innovation and general consumers concerned about the cost to performance ratio.
