Review on Seamless Connectivity Made Easy: Securifi Almond - Touchscreen Wireless Router/Range Extender with Quick 3-Minute Setup by Terence Dardant

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Worked great. within 2 weeks

Installation was easy as others have noted. Just follow the prompts to choose the WiFi network you want to extend, enter your credentials, and you're done. We bought this to extend the wi-fi signal to the third bedroom, which is the farthest from our router (about two rooms and three walls). He expanded it decently, increasing the deadzone to 20Mbps and the average download speed to around 3Mbps. For comparison, if we are in the same room with a router, we get a download speed of about 80 Mbit/s and an upload speed of 10 Mbit/s. I installed it and forgot about it because it worked so well for what we needed which was internet connection in that corner of the house. A few days ago it just stopped working. The boosted WiFi signal was on, but there was no internet connection. I restarted our modem, router, and this extension, but that didn't fix the problem. I reset wifi settings and re-entered all information but still nothing. For the price I wasn't expecting anything super magical, but I was expecting something that just works. what I think happened, just for a little while. I've since invested in a second router, connected it to the first router via Ethernet, and placed it in the best spot in the same room (so two routers in the same room, on opposite corners). In this third bedroom we now get an average download speed of 65 Mbit/s and an upload speed of 10 Mbit/s. MAGIC. And that easy. And so far it has been reliable. In fact, it's only been a few days. But it's very promising. So the moral of the story is: don't use this product. And keep an eye on your return date. Thank you Securify!
