9 reviews for Linksys RE6500 AC1200 Dual-Band Wireless Range Extender

  1. Rated 5 out of 5

    Thatidiottibor – April 19, 2016

    -literally plugged it in, waited till the light turned solid, connected to my computer, started Chrome browser, it initiated set up, put in my password – boom, done. total set up time maybe 3 mins.-went from getting between 10-50mbps speed with just my router to now getting 140-160mbps speed (my router puts out 150mbps speed but is a distance away, through many walls-hence this extender)-its surprisingly small, takes up very little space.

  2. Rated 5 out of 5

    Nickopotomus – March 26, 2017

    Researched for a long time to find the right wifi range extender and saw lots of good reviews for the linksys AC1200. It works really well moved it toward the back of my house to get better wifi in my bedroom, and it has made the signal soooo much better. We even get a fairly strong signal in most of our back yard now about 40-50 feet away from the house through the walls of our detached garage. Set up took me literally five minutes included my mounting it to the wall and was super simple. We are very satisfied with this purchase and are loving having fast internet all over our house and yard now.

    Jimmy K. – December 13, 2017

    Broken right out of the box. Opened the new box and noticed that one of the antennas was cracked which prevents it from staying in place.

    It is broken, both antennas are broken and do not stay up. This is not a new device

  8. Rated 3 out of 5

    GenXer – December 10, 2018

    Signal spikes up and down erratically to the point my devices randomly get disconnected, not a good thing for a wireless camera security system. Really disappointed in linksys.

  9. Rated 5 out of 5

    Victor H. Agresti – February 2, 2020

    Linksys AC1200 Range Extender (RE6500HG-FFP)This extender took 10 minutes to set up and link to our TP-Link router. The Linksys worked immediately. For example, a security camera at the furthest distance from the router, on the outside of the garage, had played recorded videos in a halting/jerking mode, sometimes with long pauses – and now those video replays are smooth and nonstop.Testing our network signal strength (via the Android app: WiFi Manager) shows that at the Linksys extender on the first floor of the house, there is a stronger signal than at the router located on the second floor of the house.
