Simply position the RE6500HG in your home where you need connectivity or experience a weak signal--say, an upstairs bedroom or office or another remote area of your home such as a patio or deck. The RE6500HG will repeat the signal from the router and redistribute it to reduce wireless dead spots.

Not only does the RE6500HG offer dual-band WiFi, it also features Crossband technology, which means the dual wireless bands can receive information on one band and transmit on the other, reducing dropped data packets and delivering a stronger, more consistent signal throughout your home.

High-Gain Antennas for a Stronger Signal

The RE6500HG sports a pair of super-tall, high-gain antennas that serve to amplify the Wi-Fi signal strength throughout your home, making it great for streaming HD videos or playing online games. These high-gain antennas are designed to eliminate dead zones that can occur when walls or construction materials obstruct the signal between your Wi-Fi devices and the extender. Since the antennas are adjustable, you can position them to optimize the performance of your wireless network.

Dual Band Wi-Fi and Audio Jack for Streaming

The range extender features simultaneous dual bands, which means it transmits at both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequencies at the same time. It extends 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi up to N300 Mbps + AC867 Mbps and reduces interference. So no matter which band your wireless devices use, they'll automatically connect to the best available band for the fastest possible performance.

The RE6500HG sports an audio jack on the back, which enables you to connect a stereo system or a speaker to the range extender and wirelessly stream music from your smartphone or laptop.

Four Gigabit Ethernet Ports for Wired Connections

In addition to wireless connectivity, the RE6500HG features four Gigabit Ethernet ports that are 10 times faster than traditional Fast Ethernet ports, allowing you to establish fast, secure wired connections to desktop or laptop computers or virtually any other Internet-enabled device. Placing the range extender on a desk near the device makes wired connections easy.

Universally Compatible with Routers

The RE6500HG features wireless-AC technology for optimal throughput and is compatible with virtually any Wi-Fi router or gateway. Simply connect it to your current wireless network to enjoy Internet access on all your devices from anywhere in your home.

Product features

Linksys AC1200 AMPLIFY Dual-Band Wi-Fi Range Extender

With the Linksys AC1200 AMPLIFY Dual-Band Wi-Fi Range Extender (RE6700), you can easily eliminate dead zones and expand the range of your existing wireless router and take advantage of Wireless-AC performance.

Using Spot Finder Technology on your laptop, tablet, or smartphone, you can quickly determine optimal placement of the extender in relation to your router. The AC1200 AMPLIFY will then repeat the signal from your router and redistribute it to reduce wireless dead spots with a combination of Crossband and Beamforming technologies.

Not only does Wireless-AC performance allow you to stream videos and play online games without interruption, you can even stream audio from your smartphone using the extender's audio jack. The addition of a convenient pass-through power outlet allows you to keep your power outlets free for use.

Easy Setup and Optimal Placement with Spot Finder Technology

Compatible with your smartphone, laptop, or tablet, Linksys Spot Finder Technology provides a unique visual representation of the distance between your AC1200 AMPLIFY and your router. The three-step setup ensures that you position the extender in an optimum location so you can enjoy the maximum Wi-Fi signal--even in the far reaches of your home and outdoors.

Integrated Power Outlet

Thanks to the integrated power pass-through, you can maintain use of the power outlet even when the AC1200 AMPLIFY is plugged in. The integrated power outlet function on your range extender works exactly like a normal electrical outlet, and is not controlled in any way by the range extender.

Stream Audio Wirelessly Throughout Your Home

The AC1200 AMPLIFY extender's 3.5mm audio jack allows you to connect a stereo system or speaker directly to the range extender to stream music wirelessly from your iOS or Android smartphone, tablet, or laptop.
