i bought this two years ago &amp; now the signal is dropping. Has anyone else had problems after a while? Is it typical for the hardware to wear out?

I do not know because I used it for 6 months it was fine but after that I discontinued its use as I did not need it anymore

Haven't had any problems with two laptops working off the signal, so can't respond. Hope you can work it out.

mine is working fine with it that way but there are times when the signal gets weak

mine is doing the same thing. I have replaced the pads and still doing it. I think because of the thin cords from the device to the pads they are just not strong enough and the interior wires break ...I figure it has been a year and I got many, many uses from it...so will buy a new one. Wish the cords from device to pad were not so cheesy!!

I agree with the others. Splitting the signal will reduce the strength but you can try the one to see. The product is definitely worth a try for the initial cost.

I believe they had questions or problems or both and the Amped Wireless Customer service is obligated to answer all of those. I still have random signal drops and week signals needing to reset the Router with a Power off / power on cycle ever 7-10 days. This is my 2nd unit and I probably would not buy another Amped router.

I have used this device for over 2 yrs I have noticed no problems whatsoever. Hope this helps.

So, unless it's close to your router it drops the signal constantly. Perhaps it is just my tv, but I have seen other users say the same thing.

I am sorry, but I cant help you. I am not a tech-y expert. I will advise that I have no problem with its normal performance as the signal travels between concrete walls in my home.

I have mine connected through a reciever for a whole bunch of devices and sometimes the signal only shows 2 channels. I had to turn off everything and turn it back on then it works fine

I've used this for a couple years now and haven't had any issues with anything interrupting the signal

Mine have been working fine for 2 years. The are hard to reconnect when I have to change routers. It seeps to help if I shut them off for at least 10 minutes before trying to reconnect to router.

Mine is still working fine after 2 years, except for the "smart" functions. We can't stream movies or go online without annoying buffering due to the crappy wifi module. When we want to stream a movie we have to do it through the Wi or playstation. Don't expect good results with any function that needs internet. Samsung customer support is a joke as well. I submitted my concern through their web site, to which they never responded. Once they have your money they don't care anymore.

Hi, My advice is to return that piece of garbage,I bought it but I installed like a month and a half after, the worse router I ever had, very poor signal range, connection drops constantly, I tried to return it but it was too late, I threw 70 bucks to the garbage, if you can, again stay away from that router it will give you many headaches. It is the last time I buy a Netgear product. Good luck!

Seems to be working for me. I have the unit at the end of the home and the computers and cell phones do well at the far end of the home in the Florida room addition which is past the main outside wall to include outside in the screened in porch connected to the Florida Room addition. Have never lost a signal yet. Hope this helps

I just purchased this radio and it has been dropping the wifi signal as well. The network signal shows blue so I'm assuming from miket's post that there is a problem with the radio connecting to the squeezebox network. Funny thing is though I have a squeezebox boom as well and it never has problems connecting like this one does. I think there is something wrong with these radios and from the reviews I have read it seems to get worse over time. I think I will send mine back as well and just get another boom.

I would think you have a defective model. Mine never loses signal once synced up.
