LINKSYS AC1200 AMPLIFY DUAL-BAND Wi-Fi RANGE EXTENDER


With the Linksys AC1200 AMPLIFY Dual-Band Wi-Fi Range Extender (RE6700), you can easily eliminate dead zones and expand the range of your existing wireless router and take advantage of Wireless-AC performance.


Using Spot Finder Technology on your laptop, tablet, or smartphone, you can quickly determine optimal placement of the extender in relation to your router. The AC1200 AMPLIFY will then repeat the signal from your router and redistribute it to reduce wireless dead spots with a combination of Crossband and Beamforming technologies.


Not only does Wireless-AC performance allow you to stream videos and play online games without interruption, you can even stream audio from your smartphone using the extender's audio jack. The addition of a convenient pass-through power outlet allows you to keep your power outlets free for use.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Range ExtenderReceived this as a free product to review. Very pleased and impressed with ease of set up onto existing wireless network. I have a 1,650 Square foot home with a large Florida room and patio on the back of the house. During much of the year we entertain and spend as much time as possible outdoors on the patio or in the Florida room. Our WiFi signal was not always reliable or very strong in the back of the house on the patio. Now it is!!! The Linksys AC1200 AMPLIFY Dual-Band Wi-Fi Range Extender has eliminated any problems with receiving a reliable and strong WiFi signal in our Florida room and back patio areas. Very impressed with all aspects of this product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works greatI bought this to extend my wifi range so I could connect my outdoor wood stove to get readings without having to go out in the cold, or if I go away for the weekend I know when it needs wood added and I can get ahold of someone to take care of it for me. Works great.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good designWorks great and very easy to set up. Thoughtful form factor means no mounting, no cords and no eyesore. Using it with a WRT1900AC router which already provides excellent coverage for the primary building but we are relocating and may need the extender for a detached garage.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Dependable wireless network range extenderI added the wireless range extender to my network to improve the signal capabilities, and it is working advertised. I have a wireless weather station that uses a signal bridge to transfer the data collection to the Internet. I have connected the bridge to range extender utilizing an Ethernet cable to the provided port. It is working flawlessly and communicating with my router and allows me to observe real-time weather conditions at my home over the Internet.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I can get 802.11ac everywhere in the house now!We have an area of the house that gets a weaker signal than we'd like and the RD6700 solves the problem nicely. It has an ethernet port that my grandson uses for this PS4 when he visits and I have attached a pair of speakers for casting music from another room. Just right for our wants.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good product with even better customer supportThe device had a firmware issue that prevented it from being used on a network with MAC Address filtering. As soon as this was reported Linksys support team called me (over IDD) and resolved it promptly. Been using the device for 6 months now, without the slightest hickup.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good Design and CoverageThe Linksys 1200 Amplify is a great little Wi-Fi extender that installs easily and provides good Wi-Fi coverage in our Great Room and even out to the garage. Our extender is connected to a Linksys WRT1900 ACS wireless router which already provides wide Wi-Fi coverage and the Amplify complements that coverage quite nicely. We located ours towards the very rear area of our home so that it would support coverage to our back patio and we are delighted that it manages to provide good signal coverage to our entire back yard. The unique style with the very useful pass-through electrical plug comes in very handy for us as the Amplify is inserted in a receptacle that we routinely plug our vacuum cleaner in to tidy up. I have wirelessly connected my Roku box to the Amplify and video streaming is full on perfect at extended distances. The set-up App was easy to use and very useful. The Linksys 1200 Amplify working in conjunction with the WRT1900 ACS is an absolute perfect solution for us and should correct most every Wi-Fi coverage problems.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Product!I received this product last week. I had to move the unit once to find an optimal place for the extender. The cell phone app works well on placing the unit. I had to adjust the placement of the extender because I did not place it where the app showed me to place it. Since the extender has been in the optimal location it has been excellent. My router is located on the other end of the house and it dropped signal a few times a day. Since I have placed the extender my signal has been great. I would recommend this product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Effective repeater with nice performance.Configures quickly with a very clean web UI. Recognizes placement and tells you when it is too close or to far from the router. Interface is arranged logically and is very crisp. The 5Ghz communication with the router, regardless of attached devices frequency improves throughput nicely. Network utilities show the attached devices with the same MAC address as the Extender (Router within a router). The Extender's UI does show the attached devices MAC's, so this is a not an issue.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Does its job well.I ended up using this to get a reliable WiFi stream to my television in the basement. In that regards this product works admirably. This isn't a knock on this product as it is working as intended, but products that hot swap connected devices to different access points do make life much easier especially when you have less tech savvy members of the family like young children and grandparents.That said, if you need to get a WiFi single to a specific fixed point and don't want the aggravation of pulling cable, this fits the bill. The signal is rock solid through the floor of a modular home (box on box, essentially has to go through 2 floors) and several walls. Would recommend to anyone trying to get a WIFI signal to a difficult to access area of your home.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing Wi-Fi Range ExtenderLinksys AC1200 Amplify Wi-Fi Range Extender review.The physical set up was just plugging the unit into a wall outlet. Then open a browser and put in the web address of the unit, which is all clearly explained in the quick setup guide. Connecting to the Wi-Fi Extender is no different than connecting to a router. Once set up, it was time to go for a walk, and see just how good this thing is. Since my tech stuff is all in the back of the building, my signal tends to drop, out front, so I thought I would start there. Stayed at five bars, so I started down the drive to where the school bus stops; all the while making sure the building stayed between me and the Wi-Fi extender. After stepping off one hundred twenty steps to the street I was still at five bars. So that’s well over one hundred feet and counting. At this point I am thinking that the AC1200 Amplify Wi-Fi Range extender is an amazing product and would highly recommend it.

The thing I liked best about this product was the fact that my wife can get on the internet through this device in the bedroom. I don't know why but, when she's in the bedroom. She can't get on the net. She has a Galaxy S4.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Super easy to setupIt works well but would mostly recommend it to extend wifi to an area that signal strength is minimal to nonexistent. It uses it's own wifi/network settings so when you move between it and the originating wifi source you have to jump back and forth between logins... which doesn't always happen automatically.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy setupJust received this today and immediately plugged it in and ran through the setup. Setup was straightforward and took less than 5 minutes. Because my router is located in a media closet downstairs, getting a strong signal took some work. I was hoping to extend my wireless network to my mom's house next door, but due to the router location I was not able to achieve that.Still, my phone's signal went from 115Mbs to 144. So far so good. The only issue I had was the assumption that I would prefer a separate network name for the extender. I had to dig into the settings after setup was complete to tell it to replicate the existing network. I would rather only present a single network to everyone instead of two. At least the option is there and I can understand why you would recommend that for the average consumer in case they had problems.I'll post an update later to relay performance and reliabilty.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great decision to purchaseA tech from my internet provider mentioned that as I was updating my system it would be a good idea to consider adding an extender and the dual band would be the best for the ages of my equipment. Great advise.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy setup...I bought this about a week ago and immediately installed it. The setup was a breeze with the help of the App. One thing that surprised me was how close I had to put it to my existing router to get a good signal (according to the App). It works as advertised, but I did want to place it more in the center of the living area - no matter it improved the wireless coverage and that's why I bought it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy to install and connectI installed an AC1200 and connected it to my EA6500 router. Installation was quick and simple, and once the AC 1200 connected, my connection speed to my home theater doubled, to about 90 mps.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Helpful productThe extender was purchased to help get a stronger signal at the opposite end of my home from where my Linksys WRT 1900 ACS wifi transmitter is located. While I was at long last getting a wifi signal at that end of the house, the signal on the extender would occasionally go orange (loss of signal). I have since repositioned the extender to another outlet, which so far is working much, much better. The extender was very easy and quick to set up; perhaps two minutes. I am very pleased with the product so far.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Increased range and speedThis extender works perfectly to extend the range of our WiFi and increased both the download and upload speeds. The only downside is it creates an additional WiFi address to select and log-in to. So, if I am using the WiFi in my office where the router is located and move to our lower level, I have to change WiFi addresses.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product!I bought two of these range extenders a few months ago, and I'm really glad I did. The walls in our NYC apartment make staying connected while traveling from room to room difficult. The single strength was spotty at best, and more often than not it was non existent. Now we can move to every room in the house without interruption. The set-up was a breeze and we were up and running in minutes!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Range extender AC1200We live on a farm and our internet modem is in our house. Our farm shop is about 200 feet away in another building. We added the extender to increase our access in the shop. It helped a little but the shop is an all steel building, so I thing there is some interference with the steel building.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works Very Well, but...The unit arrived and was plugged in and immediately identified itself on the network and that was all there was to it. No hiccups, nothing. Just another spot on the list of available wifi channels. But a word of caution. Some of your devices don't support extensions and 5GHz wifi and will not sync. Great device other than that.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A Great Device for extending Wi-Fi RangeWhen I received my range extender, I was impressed with its looks and features. For example, it does take away any power outlets when plugged in, and the antennas are adjustable. I quickly followed the instructions on setting it up which was very simple and straight forward. I plugged in the device, waited for the light to go solid (which lasted less than a minute). I connected through my browser as instructed and followed the steps there. The most impressive thing was the "Spot Finder" technology. It was very helpful on possible locations for the extender in relation to both the router and the device connecting.I have had very little problem connecting devices and reconnecting as I pass through the device range. I can even connect to the extender from out doors in the yard. I would very strongly recommend this device. Great work!
