Complicated and unintuitive to use. A brief flicker in power supply or a temporary drop in my ISP's connection can result in needing to re-set-up the router and all of my network settings. I work in a technical role in IT and I'm used to working through complicated system/software configurations and this is a very poorly put together hardware/software package that requires too much manual intervention, too often.

my first review was in 2020 but now I'm updating my review. it always used to work good but for some reason it's acting up. it doesn't let me log in. and when I do it says can't connect to my router. it tells me to check my router status. but it's fine. I was watching Hulu and my daughter was playing Xbox. the router was fine. but the app didn't want to connect. when I was finally able to connect to it, I tried to connect to the extender I have linked to it. it doesn't want to connect to that.

Periodically, the device stops extending, i dont know why it happens. I find myself reinstalling the app, setting up again which always takes many attempts to work. In the endn I'm never convinced I'm doing it right, it's really not intuitive for me. Customer services were helpful once but expect me to pay 80-90 quid for a service contract....joke the behaviour of the app and the device were a bit confusing during setup, but it did setup and it appears to be doing what I hoped.
