Pros & Cons
Pros
Netgear ex5000 wifi extender was purchased to pair with my netgear r7000 nighthawk router. It is very compact without any antenna. Mhz name>_2gext and <r7000 5.
Cons
Connects with strong signal 100% but gives extremely weak to no internet connection. Trying to connect a regular modem to the extender using the installation assistant is not easy.
Netgear has the lamest support all glitz but not very helpful. This device is good for nothing. Spend little more to get different brand.
Highlights
Quality
After logging in with the ex 5000i had full service.
Took awhile to get product installed and working well would recommend this product

Had problems setting it up because it gave itself the same network name as my other wifi extender in fact it seems to have blocked my other extender
