Has anyone had Verizon supply you with a net work extender because your wireless service has suddenly lost signal strength?

I don't think so..My experience with Verizon has been that they will sell you the $300.00 Network Extender, but you will need two bars or more outside your house, in order to get 4 or 5 Bars strength boost inside your house.. and if the Extender Breaks down after one year warranty, no return, you will need to Buy a new Un-used Network Extender..

I asked Verizon about providing a repeater on several occasions and essentially the answer is no.

They supplied me with one after months of arguing with them about dropping my phone calls. I did a factory reset, new phone, then new sim card and nothing worked. I should be receiving this from Verizon today and hopefully it solves my issues. I had no issue with my service the first year I had the phone then they believe they lost a contract with a tower which made my signal drop down.

Sorry, can't honestly help - I'd only be guessing. I'd recommend directing the question to Samsung. If the overall phone still works, the extender can't be bad.

Did you adjust your wifi settings to the netgear 'extender'? Mine is a refurbish but it works excellent!!!

I highly recommend NOT purchasing this unit, and instead purchase a mobile hotspot. This unit has given connection problems, and is not recommended by Verizon although they still may support it. It has a history of connecting, and then disconnecting, and Verizon techs don't know how to solve.

Yes, however I had to buy a wireless extender to place close to it to work. My regular WIFI was in another room and not strong enough for it to recognize the signal.

Shortly before I found out Sprint was involved I stated losing my Internet for days...I thought it was about heavy rain but it continued. I was given the option to purchase a new box which the antennae would fit on...I had to put the box on my front porch to get somewhat of a signal before and after the antennae was put on. It worked at first but still from the front porch just a more constant signal. Now it is in and out and outside still. Inside it seems to be a bit better now but with only one light on and we take it day by day. Not sure what to do at this point. Not ready to deal with the reps at cleat who must be unsure about their jobs because I war offered to end the service by one.

As long as you can receive a signal strength &gt; 70% and there is no 'splash' page in order to use that service, then yes, our extender should extend a network coming from that provider.

I have a Zoom wifi as the main connection and a Linksys WRE54G as the Extender, but for some reason the Linksys is hindering the connection. When the extender is disconnected we have a stronger signal. Does anyone know why this would happen? I'm thinking the extender is just not working at all. We've been fighting to fix this for weeks...

My router started doing the same thing - random signal drops for a short period, but enough to lose printer and scanner connections. Suggest you call their 800# - sorry don't have it on me - you should have received a welcome email from Mediabridge with the #. They'll arrange for you to get a replacement unit. They stand behind their product - good people. That said, if my next unit has the same issues we'll be having a money-back conversation! Good luck.

I have a similar problem with Verizon FIOS, cuts my band width in half. I found out it was not the repeater and a known limitation on Verizon's end. I also heard the same thing for ATT customers

I have Verizon Quantum router. If you connect using Ethernet it will drop your range signal on anything that is wireless. It does work but we have a lot of laptops and tablets.

As long as you can receive a signal strength > 70% and there is no 'splash' page in order to use that service, then yes, our extender should extend a network coming from that provider.

I have it with centurylink, actually had it. I scrapped it and purchased a netgear. It was useless for me.

I had a similar issue and contacted my ISP. The rep tested the signal strength and told me it was low because I had one of their older cable modems. He upgraded it at no charge and I haven't had any problems since. My cable company is notorious for always upgrading their hardware, but only new customers get it until you complain. Hope this helps.

AT&T does use a Motorola SBG6580 model that has issues with extenders. If you have that model the extender may experience connection issues. Also, with what you have described with the metal foil insulation, an extender may not be a good idea as it depends on the WIFI signal of the router. If you have the option, running Ethernet cable and installing an access point would be a better solution.

I can't answer that as I use home wireless through my phone company. I would suggest talking to the people at your Verizon store.

Verizon works off your internet connection; this has an external antenna that captures the signal
