It does what it says and setup is extremely simple.

This piece do not work at all it is a piece of rubbish

Connected it up, got the required min of 3 LED's, moved it to where I need to extend our wifi to and it made absolutely no difference to the signal. If I stood within a meter of the extender the signal was great but once I moved into the kitchen 2 mts away, there was no signal. The extender was setup within 5 mts of the main router, so that's not even an issue. Unless I had clear line of sight this product was useless. Loot's service however was outstanding.

Very very poor signal and does not work through thin walls. Loot took 4 months to evaluate it and then said nothing is wrong. Even though it was clear it didn't work. Steer clear...

Great little device, was set up in a couple minutes via the Tether App. Really Impressed with the signal strength!

My household now has full signal wifi connection upstairs, and I can connect my desktop via the ethernet port. What a dream! I thought I'd have to buy 2 products to achieve this. @Anya J - Unless your product was defected, it should work as long as the extender is in a place that isn't a deadzone (can still pick up wifi signal in order to boost to the deadzone). Great Product!
