Netgear AC1200 EX6110 WiFi Range Extender
- MPNs: EX6110 and EX6110-100AUS
Way too temperamental
When it works it's fine but a lot of the time it loses connection to the router and therefore I lose internet. It's so bad that I have gotten rid of it loss of $100 and get a Netgear mesh device. That's working VERY well and gives you the same wifi network regardless of where you are. Do not get this one.

Easy to set up, great when it works but is unreliable
I purchased the Netgear EX6110 a week back from Officeworks, and after configuring it, was amazed at the improvement of this extender. I have marginal coverage at the East side of our home, and also desired some outdoor coverage to access my WIFI switches.
What I found is every day or two, I lose connection to the devices attached to the device. It appears that the devices are unable to obtain IP address albeit the signal is strong, and you are able to "connect" to the WIFI, but have no internet. This happens on both the 2.4G and 5G WIFI...
Read more. To remedy I have to give it a power reset. Even resetting my NBN primary router does not resolve the problem when it occurs. I have now enabled Fast Lane Router-to-Extender in 5GHz only and Extender-to-Device in 2.4GHz only (Router must support 5GHz band), hoping that was not overloading my 2.4G primary network, but the problem continues even after the latest update (Hardware Version: EX6110Firmware Version: V1.0.1.62) So, although it is a great performer when it works, it is unreliable...Purchased in at Officeworks Physical store for $128.
