The first one I bought worked somewhat for a week. Had the green light on and then it went away. Was consistently amber or red. Exchanged it for a second one thinking maybe something was wrong with that one and the new one never got the green light -- only amber. Talked with technical support for 30 minutes reinstalling, etc. with no luck. Setting it up was a breeze. It just didn't work. I then exchanged it for the Netgear AC1200. This is the one to get. Same ease of set up, same price and it works amazingly well. Signal was boosted to full bars where I previously only had one or kept dropping the signal. Love the Netgear. Hated the Linksys.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Will this work for my smart tv in bedroom?

My modem is in living room, time warner cable is internet provider, 2 smart tv's, 1 in bedroom, 1 in living room, I cannot utilize any apps on tv in bedroom VUDU,YOUTUBE etc..., my ipod, samsung tablet, laptop will work in bedroom but again not tv apps, is this the item i need to be able to use those apps on my tv in bedroom, when i try, it says no wifi connection,please help TY
I would try the Netgear AC1200. It just plugs into an outlet halfway between modem and your TV and boosts the signal. It's easy to set up. My modem is on the first floor. The signal to the 3rd floor bedroom went from barely a bar to full coverage. If it doesn't work you can always take it back within two weeks to Best Buy for a refund.
