Re: Nothing but trouble, frequent disconnects, low speeds, I think I solved most of it, learn how!

Yea the extender is the EAX20 the distance between them is 10-15 feet. <So this is tooooo Close. 30 feet is a good starting point between main host signals and extenders. 
I am beyond frustrated. The signal only covers most of the front room, maybe just outside the house on a good day. But can’t reach the second floor office which is on the opposite hallway but same side of the house.
What channels are your neighbors using? 
What channels are you using? Auto? Try Auto and 48 on 5Ghz. Or try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and 40 to 48 channel on 5Ghz.

Yet I get all of my neighbors signals, some of them 4-5 houses down the block, everyone’s got basically the same house built at the same time. Yet I’m lucky if Mine goes more than 20-25 feet and I’ve already invested in a $300 router, $130 extender, $50 Moca amp, $10 75 omh caps, $50 subscription to Netgear Armor and 1.2gb internet speed and it totally blows.

Think you need to ensure your system is correctly setup, placed and checked out first before claiming this doesn't work. 

I really really tried to make all of this Netgear equipment and services work but it’s just failure after failure, every day a new problem. Time to just face reality. I fell for Netgear’s marketing hype, forked over my money, and all I have to show for it is Netgear saying give us another $79 for additional support and other than cashing the check what are they going to do? Nothing, nothing will continue to work and it’ll just make the whole situation worse than it . If Netgear had a buy back plan … I’d get rid of all of it right now. Go buy something proven to work.
