Netgear EX 6200 extender.

This NETGEAR - Universal Wi-Fi Dual-Band Range Extender with 4-Port Ethernet Switch won't extend signals 40-50 yards. My unit extends wifi signals out to the street, which is about 60 feet (20 yards) away. Try running an ethernet line from your main house router to the garage, and either connecting a 4 port switch to the ethernet line at the garage, or connecting a wireless router to the ethernet line in the garage to create a new wifi source in the garage.

For the price and the product, you can't beat it. I was very pleased and would highly recommend it. Very similar incident issue as yourself.

Waste of time. Doesn't work and directions are useless and going to website is useless. I am using it as a paperweight.

this range extender should easily give you a 50 yard coverage. we use it in our 4000 square foot house.

Without knowing the structure of your house and garage, I recommend purchasing one NETGEAR - IEEE 802.11n 600 Mbps Wireless Range Extender and place it in the room closest to your garage. The signal strength will be stronger to the garage. If still not strong enough, then buy another extender and place it in the garage and that should provide all the signal strength needed. I have friends with quad level houses and they have put a range extender in each level of their homes.

We just bought one to boost our signal to reach to our deck and screen porch. It work great, we now have 5 bars out side on the deck and screen porch.

purchase a router extender that extends your wireless signal so it is
stronger on that part of your house.

I would recommend the Linksys RE2000 Wireless Range Extender N300 Dual Band . I have one & it works great & I'm 70-75 yards away from my wireless router.

We use this product, and have good signal in the garage, as well as the house, although ours is only about 100 feet away. I would recommend it, for the price, it can't be beat.

It will only give you more ways to connect to the internet, but it has to use a Wi-Fi signal that is already connected to the internet. If you want to have faster speeds wirelessly you need to get a better router. I recommend using a Netgear AC router. They can run really fast and farther distance.

There are other issues that you should make sure aren't causing the slow download speeds.

1. does your modem support the advertised speeds from TWC? If not, time to get a new modem. You can purchase your own and save money in the long run. Be sure to check your ISP's website for supported modem models that support the advertised speeds.

2. How far away are your devices from the router? The further they are, the more degraded the speeds will be. If they are wired, make sure you use quality cables.

3. is your current router up to date? Sometimes a firmware upgrade can help. Get one of your tech savvy friends to help you with that.

4. Did you change the default settings? If not, you should! someone else could be using your bandwidth.

5. Change the channel that your router is using. If there's lots of nearby wifi, that could help. Again, get your tech savvy friend to help you.

To answer your question, NO, this isnt too powerful. It's probably unnecessary though. A new wireless router, not an extender is what you're looking for.

Yes, this extender is very fast. Especially when connected with 5Gh.

For me extra power is not ever a problem.

No. the NETGEAR - Universal Wi-Fi Dual-Band Range Extender with 4-Port Ethernet Switch is a wifi signal extender. To get faster download speeds, you need a more powerful router. Look at the Netgear N750 series router. It delivers faster download speeds for a good price.

Lewis before you any thing you need to
Check your router speed settings I was told by netgear tech
That you should first try to use it with the default settings if that does not work for you the with in your router software there is a setting for adjusting the speed connection of your router if in doubt contact netgear they will
Walk you through this now if you are having issues with wifi signal
Very weak in different parts of your house then you can do what did
Use a wifi range extender from netgear I fixed
This issue for me and now I have very strong
Signal through out my home.
your printer or laptop should just fine just make sure you setup
Your wireless properly follow the manufacturer instructions

This product doesn't work. Get something other than net gear

You will be ok
More ability to connect faster is always a great problem to have!
No worries

No. This product busts helps extend the range of your WiFi router. It will not speed up your downloads
