What customers say about "Key Specs"

NETGEAR EX7300

The coverage in general is way better and I can finally free roam in the flat without having to switch WiFi every 2 seconds.
The speed went from 2-14 Mbps in the kitchen before and now is around 70 Mpbs but has also improved the speed everywhere else in the flat.
It hasn't disconnected once and speed is still consistent everywhere we need it.
Very good speeds double to what i had on 2.4ghz and 5 g is 4x the speed. Highly recommend.
The signal in the studio was extremely weak and could only be accessed in a corner of the office. After this extender was installed, the whole office gets 2.4 GHz full speed connection.

NETGEAR EX7500-100UKS AC2200 Tri-Band WiFi Range Extender

I now have no issues streaming, gaming or general wifi use on multiple devices at very good speeds.
As soon as I plugged this baby in on the top of the stairs landing i had full wifi coverage upstairs and around the full house.
Speeds are great compared with using a powerline to wifi extender along our Victorian style electric wiring.
Like many of these extender sockets, this one suffers from signal drop out from time to time.
Sometimes device just refuse to connect to any internet signal.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"

NETGEAR EX7300

In use, this extender has been rock-solid. It gets better 5g reception than other extenders I've tried without being a full-sized device.
It was easy to set up, (on tablets and smartphones you just have to pick it up as a new network connection and put in the password again) and very small so barely noticeable.
Small piece of kit, barely bigger than a plug but seems to pick up networks well.
Easy to use and set up and is small and unobtrusive. Great buy that really works well.
Great coverage, quite large so if you have restricted sockets be careful what is above them.

NETGEAR EX7500-100UKS AC2200 Tri-Band WiFi Range Extender

Note, it is very large, but feels sturdy in the wall socket.
Fits any plug and doesn't prevent you using the next one along. Highly recommended.
Small size, fits a 3 pronged adapter perfectly.
The size is smallish and fits the socket with no problems.
Fitted it easily and we are not the most technically minded people.

What customers say about "Features"

NETGEAR EX7300

Comes with a nice little app to see who else is using channels around you and relative signal strengths. Good piece of kit.
The unit looks sheek, low profile and contains good hardware. The UI looks easy to use.
Using fastlane means my ps4 downloads are as quick as a wired connection.
If I've got one gripe it's that I haven't found a way to switch the LEDs off - that just means it acts as a night-light on the landing.
Using a hidden SSID setup, I need to manually input my router details. However when I select WPA2 as the security option, there is no password field to enter details into.

NETGEAR EX7500-100UKS AC2200 Tri-Band WiFi Range Extender

We can walk around the house and be transferred from main hub signal to the extender and not notice any buffering or loss of signal - when the device is working correctly that is.
The app for managing and tuning your setup is very simple.
The WPS setup is very simple, so getting up and running is a nice experience. From the go, the extender seems to do a great job of greatly extending the WIFI.
The Netgear app that is used for configuration is very basic and the user manual is not very informative.
I had a smart home app on and watched several devices come online moments after I turned off the extender.
