✓ Nothing works - returning because this is crap.I have (soon to be had) the WLR760AC. Tried following instructions to set up wirelessly. At step 4 you are told to enter a non-existent website http://maginon.extender ... Since there is no such website, it's impossible to proceed with setup. Tried using the app downloaded directly from the Apple AppStore. In that app, I selected the WLR760AC and NEXT. The extender is plugged in with lights showing, so I don't need to do anything to turn the device on. I hit NEXT. 9 or more times out of 10, I get an error message that there's no extender. The rare times it finds the device (which I'm sitting no more than 15 feet from), it asks for a password. The password is supposedly admin. It doesn't work. I tried the password for my wifi network. It doesn't work either. I've slowly typed each password at least 10 times, so I know I typed them correctly at least once! I discovered I can log on using admin if I manually choose to be connected to the wifi extender in my wifi setup, but then I'm not on my own VERY SECURE wifi network anymore ... Instead I'm on a different network that's totally open to anyone who sees it, and it gives a warning message that all your internet traffic is now visible to others. I called the # for service or technical support 800-270-5071 and spoke with Selena. She talked V*E*R*Y slowly as if she was really annoyed and extremely bored - it literally almost made me fall asleep listening to her! She also was no help - repeatedly had to look up what to do next in her script, but always said the same thing: "Press reset button with a pen for 10 seconds. If the app still doesn't find the device, press the WPS button for 10 seconds." A pen is way too big to reach the reset button, and nothing I own is small enough to do so. Repeatedly held down WPS button; no change - it's as if device doesn't exist. Even unplugged the device (MY idea); no change. App didn't find it even once while on phone with them! I noticed her wording was always "installation attempt" - not "installation"!!! So the manufacturer isn't confident this device works!!! Then I looked up the reviews for this device, which average 3.2 out of 5 and realized this device is junk. Will be returning today. Also, when I told tech support about the non-existence of http://maginon.extender, Selena's response was, "We're aware of that." If they're aware, then why haven't they fixed it??? That's evidence of a very unprofessional company who doesn't care at all about the frustration they put their customers through..StitchwitchedVersion: 1.8

✓ Scam.WiFi doesn't work. Don’t waste your time and money on this. When set up, you don’t even get a connection from it, even if you reset 10 times. This item is just a scam..武秋山Version: 1.9

✓ GarbageDoes not work.MarypenguinVersion: 1.9

✓ Does not workNo matter what method I use to set it up initially, there is no internet connectivity after setup. The app is only for initial setup and does not have any troubleshooting capabilities. Returning..Chris748261Version: 1.9
