Finally got my ex2700 extender up and working, terrible experience, lots of trial and error. It appeared to not help coverage, so I did some testing. Received signal from the router measured at extender was -60dbm, very good. Re-transmitted signal was -78 dbm, measured right next to extender, very bad. It appears the extender has very low power output. Once again Netgear disappoints. Any suggestions?
The EX2700 is the most basic extender netgear offers and is a simple N300 device.
It'll extend range a bit further than the router but isn't going to do much more than that. and not at any sort of decent speed either as its a pretty slow device.
