Perfect

Used as a 2.4/5 GHz WIFI ac access point and not as a repeater to supplement the WIFI of a Freebox Revolution HS. Easy installation, very small size. The documentation "Quick start guide for the AC1200 Dual Band WiFi repeater model EX6120" is very clear. Easy to update the firmware thanks to the WEB interface integrated in the device. The device is very satisfying, the signal is perfect in the whole flat. I'm very pleased with the quality of the product and the service.

Very bad product

This repeater is not worth its price at all, it has a very low range, less than 10 meters, heats up a lot and is very long and complicated to install because the manufacturer's website to configure the repeater is very poorly done and crashes constantly. I do not recommend it at all.

        Perfect

        It's a very good product that works perfectly well with OpenWrt. I recommend the combination :-)

        wifi

        Hello.
        This product is a little complicated to install, but it fulfils its role, the Netgear brand and professional in this area.
        a voir avec le recul.

        Ulysse.

        Excellent product

        I use this repeater in an outbuilding at the bottom of the garden at a distance of 15m (at least) from my wifi box (with walls and obstacles), and it quadruples my signal very well.
        Installation was quick and easy, via WPS on the box. The installation guide supplied with the repeater was clear enough for me.
        The dual band is also very practical.
        In short, I think it's perfect for my needs!

        Good performance but tends to lose connection

        After almost a year of use, I have mixed feelings.
        On the one hand the signal has a very good range and a good flow, on the other hand the module tends to disconnect itself.
        It doesn't happen very often, but at least once a week it disconnects from the box and I have to restart it to get it working again.
        It's a shame because otherwise the product is very well made.

        Good equipment

        Easy to set up and works well in both 2.4 GHZ and 5 GHZ.
        No problem to use regardless of the connected equipment

        Quick installation but permanent and untimely disconnection

        The repeater was installed with great simplicity (WPS helping a lot) although the web interface is intuitive.

        However, most importantly, it has an annoying tendency to disconnect non-stop, which, when teleworking, is a real hassle.

        I absolutely do not recommend this product!

        Not for professional use, probably for domestic use

        The WPS functionality is not great (especially because you can configure normal Wifi and 5G). With WPS configuration, "you can't see if everything is configured correctly". And if it goes wrong, you don't know why.
        So I went through the manual configuration.
        It took me some time to do this: I entered the address to connect to the repeater, but by default, browsers use HTTPS by default, and you have to use HTTP... It was necessary to find it there.
        But well, I was well configured after one day.
        Then I place the repeater ideally (far but not too much), but the next day, loss of the connection with the router... After several times I decided to blame the repeater... But still, every day, the connection becomes unstable (with router and PC). It is necessary to disconnect, reconnect to make it work perfectly (personally, I am in telecommuting with VPN, I can not afford connection cuts). But just to "go on the internet", maybe it's enough.

        reliable wall pass!

        Works every time, reliable, strong signal, even outside in the garden. Goes through breeze block walls and reinforced concrete slabs, in short, it waters the whole house: electrosensitive, refrain!
        Not tested through stone.

        very good product

        I bought this product to be able to have access to both the 2.4 Ghz and 5 GHz band. the 5 Ghz band is much less busy.
        on the other hand, I can take advantage of the Wi Fi ac delivered by my box.
        The interest of this device is also that it amplifies the signal that it receives, which suits me well because my signal from the box is weak.

        Practical, lacks a little power

        Very easy to install, but lacks some power to pass through thick walls, or to transmit from one floor to another

        I easily gained 50 of network in a very old house with 50 cm walls.
        Super easy installation.
        I recommend

        Good product

        Easy installation and works perfectly in 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz.
        I use it to repeat the signal upstairs in my house (concrete slab + underfloor heating).
        However, I had to place this repeater vertically to my freebox so that it could receive the signal correctly.
        Now smartphones and tablets receive WiFi perfectly on the whole floor.
        I also bought this repeater because it has an on/off button allowing me to easily turn it off without having to unplug it, for example at night since it is installed in a bedroom.

        Nickel

        I've been using it for a few weeks now, to allow the use of wifi in my office, and I use it intensively on a daily basis: super simple to set up with WPS, stable connection and excellent speed despite the distance and the partitions between this repeater and my access point.

        Very effective

        I had a small HUAWEI repeater in my kitchen which is in an area away from the wifi router and the powerline wifi access point at the other end of the house. So little reception. With this Netgear repeater, I now have excellent reception in my kitchen and I am very satisfied.
        It is easy to install if you follow the instructions. On the other hand, I hesitated a lot to give the same name of SSID as the one of my network or a new name, version advised by Netgear without many arguments... I chose the easy way, same SSID and same wifi password. And it works very well.

        Excellent product. I have been using it for a while now and it has been a great help to me in getting my wifi connection to my office. I can now access the internet via 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz wifi without any problems on my ipad.
        I recommend this product without any problem.

        Small and very efficient

        Used only in HOTSPOT mode for my needs, it builds a new WIFI network in 2.4 GHz and another in 5GHz. Connected to my router of the same brand in Ethernet (RJ45), I set it up from my laptop temporarily switched to WIFI for the purpose. To respect well the chapter concerned of the documentation. Then I put my PC back on Ethernet. Our 2 Smartphones connect to the Internet in WIFI at a breathtaking speed, via the Netgear EX6120, then the Netgear FVS318 router, then the Freebox V5. I did a test with a TINTIN video watched for 20 minutes... If you filter the accesses according to the MAC addresses of the WIFI devices, in DHCP mode on the router, think of reserving a MAC address by device.

        Small and powerful

        No, this is absolutely not advertising for laundry, but this repeater is excellent, before this one I was using an EX2700 of the same brand and you can really feel the difference, I have more than doubled the signal strength and the speed I'm not even telling you...

        Works very well

        Easy installation, no bugs so far (several weeks of use). Currently going through a 40 cm stone wall. The signal is weak after that but that's normal!
        No latency especially (at least nothing unacceptable).
        I've been using it for a while now and it's a great value for money (well, I can't compare it to other products).

        I've been using it for a while now, but it's a good idea to have it on my computer. It's a good idea to have it on your computer, and it's a good idea to have it on your computer.

        Good device

        The device was delivered in the shortest possible time. It does its job very well. From my office, where the modem is located, to my room, it reproduces a very decent signal where I can finally play online without latency or loss of wifi.

        Very satisfied with this material

        Ordered yesterday, delivered today. I like the small size of this repeater. I use it in access point mode (with an RJ45 cable), which allowed me to cut WiFi on my remote LiveBox and allows me to use WiFi on demand, as this repeater is equipped with an on-off switch. So less problems with "harmful" waves. The range is good. The configuration is easy.
