The AC1200 BOOST EX increases the range of your existing Wi-Fi signal–up to 7,500 square feet* – eliminating dead spots in your home and outdoors and resulting in reliable high-speed Wi-Fi using Wireless-AC technology.

Works with All Wi-Fi routers

The AC1200 BOOST EX is compatible with all Wi-Fi routers, including those from service providers. There’s no need to modify your router’s settings when installing the extender.

System requirements

This product requires an 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac wireless router or access point, AC power outlet and a Wi-Fi-enabled PC, Mac, smartphone or tablet with Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0, Firefox 20, Safari 5.1 or Google Chrome 25.0 browsers or higher.

Quick, easy setup

Setting up the AC1200 Boost Ex is a breeze. Simply press the Push Button Connect function on the range extender to automatically sync it with your router. Then plug in the range extender near the area you’re experiencing a weak Wi-Fi signal. A green light will signify optimal placement, while an amber light will denote incorrect placement.

With Spot Finder Technology, you can also use your smartphone, laptop or tablet to make sure you’ve chosen the ideal location in your home for the range extender. Spot Finder Technology is a browser-based setup option that provides a visual representation of the distance between your AC1200 BOOST EX and your router.

Ensure an uninterrupted connection with dual bands

The extender has dual wireless bands for uninterrupted streaming, gaming, browsing and more. It allows you to use both bands at once, rather than relying on one band to do all the work. This Crossband Technology allows information to be obtained on one band and transmitted on the other, resulting in a strong, more consistent signal throughout your home, as well as faster AC1200 data transfer speeds.

Focus Wi-Fi to certain devices using beamforming

The AC1200 Boost Ex focuses the wireless signal directly to your device – a feature known as Beamforming technology. This increases the efficiency of your network, enabling multiple household members to enjoy simultaneous high-bandwidth activities like streaming and gaming.

Fast wired connection with Gigabit Ethernet Port

Connect a wired device like a gaming console, Blu-ray player, smart TV or streaming player to your Wi-Fi network using the AC1200’s Gigabit Port, which provides data transfer speeds up to 10x more fast than Fast Ethernet.
