Compatible WiFi Extender with Netgear R6300v2 Router
What would be a compatible Netgear wifi extender with the Netgear R6300v2 Router?

Strictly speaking, all of Netgear's extenders are compatible with the R6300v2. Picking a model depends on your needs. They can include one or more of the following:
- Single band (2.4 GHz) or dual band (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) support?
- Are wireless clients single band or dual band or a mixture of both?
- Do you have wired devices that need network access?
- Can you or are you willing to connect the extender to the R6300v2 via Ethernet or Powerline for best performance?
- Do you need a powerful extender with external antennas due to challenging conditions (thick walls, long distances)?
- Is physical size important?
There may be other things to consider. The above are merely what I could think of.
