Fantastic Product with Easy Setup
on May 14, 2016
Posted by: TechGuru
I have had the Linksys MaxStream RE7000-AC1900 Wall Plug In Range Extender with MU-MIMO for about a week now, and it is amazing. I use it out in my workshop, which is a metal building in my back yard around 100 feet away. In the past, WiFi extenders haven't helped much, as they couldn't penetrate the distance fro my WiFi router combined with the building being metal. This product has eliminated any interference, and is operating amazingly. It is best when paired with an AC (the newest WiFi standard) router, such as the LINKSYS EA9500 MAX-STREAM™ AC5400 TRI-BAND WI-FI ROUTER to reach maximum speeds.
What's in the box: The packaging on the Re7000 is very nice and minimal. Inside, you'll find the warranty card and quick start documents, as well as the unit itself. The ONLY con for this product is that it doesn't include an Ethernet cable, which would be nice as I have a hardwired device in my workshop.
The Setup: It only took about 4 minutes, including opening the package to set it up. The online setup interface is smooth and quick. It also does the nice job of keeping the same SSID name for any signals being repeated, which is nice as everything resides on the same network.
Technical notes: Using this, I now have a speedtest.net rating of 48.24 Mbps download and 3.86 Mbps upload speeds. This is far superior to any results I have ever experienced from any similar product.
My Best Buy number: 0314088169
I would recommend this to a friend!

The description for this product is incorrect and sparse at best. Please update.

AGREED! The desciption seems to indicate that it has BOTH USB-A and USB-C ports. This is incorrect, it only has USB-C connections. The description should be fixed immediately.

Cut The Cord with AirTV Player. Stream movies, TV, music and other content using a wide range of apps, including Netflix, SlingTV, Google Play and many more from the Google Play Store all with AirTV Player. AirTV’s streaming platform integrates local over-the-air (OTA) programming with your streaming services. The AirTV Adapter and an OTA antenna provide local channels like ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX, without a monthly cable bill.
 

I’m confused. How/ where does it get ota channels? Is there an antenna that comes with it? Similar to the digital antenna I use now for local channels? Or does it get the local ota channels and stream to device via the internet?

It actually has a coaxial cable plug-in so that you can use any OTA antenna with it.You should be able to use the digital antenna you mentioned in your question. That said, you can get a new, Smart 4k TV for around $300-$450, so I would go that route unless you are on an extremely tight budget. 4k, plus Roku is a much better option in my opinion. If nothing else, Roku isn't going anywhere.

does it support AT&T Digital life and its Nest devices and thermostats that are attached to the system ?

It supports Nest devices, but you would have to contact AT&T about future integration, but currently it isn't supported.

Can this be used if the phone the main account is tied to is not at home? IE: Could my wife ask it to play music from Google Play if I'm not there? I'm not asking about family accounts but if this will remember my account if my phone isn't around?

Yes, Google Home will work regardless of if the primary account holder is around. Great question!
