Straight forward install, but seems expensive
on May 21, 2018

Verified Purchase:Yes
Installed without a hitch. However, cost of these refills so high makes you consider just purchasing new printer, which would come with full ink cartridges. By my calculation, if you replace ink cartridges twice will have just about paid for new printer.

Upload speed was slowed
on May 21, 2018
Posted by: Steve
from NJ
Verified Purchase:Yes
While my download speed remained about the same, my upload speed was measurably slowed. Also, as advertised, this DOCSIS 3.0 modem maxes out at 680 Mbps. Accordingly, it will not be able to handle the gigabyte per second download speeds already being offered by Xfinity with the newer DOCSIS 3.1 standard. No point buying technology that effectively is already behind the times. So, I returned this unit and got Comcast to install one of their DOCSIS 3.1 rental units for data and telephony function until retail versions of DOCSIS 3.1 with telephony function become available for sale to the public.

Works as advertised. Keeps accurate time.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Setup was straight forward. Has been keeping accurate time. So, far only use as living room clock next to TV to show time. Haven't yet travelled with it. Therefore, I haven't used other functions.

Extends 2.4G WIFI signal to distance from router
on June 25, 2016
Posted by: Steve
from NJ
Verified Purchase:Yes
Just make sure to completely tighten all three antenna. Does good job of extending strong WIFI signal to most distant parts of my 2200 square foot house and even a decent signal to my backyard, although I still have experienced some occasional precipitous drops on the 5G band both the regular and extended. (My android WIFI analyzer app does recommend that I change the channel that I use for my 5G bandwidth. I haven't tried that yet because app doesn't show any interfering radio signals on or near that channel). However, with this extender, the 2.4G band basically always remains strong throughout the house and yard. Accordingly, my recommendation for now for this extender is most solidly for its use for the 2.4G band.

Its SmartBoost technology amplifies and filters signals for optimal picture quality, even for 4K and 1080 HDTV programs. The separate flat-panel UHF and VHF dipole elements of this RCA indoor antenna receive the full range of broadcast TV stations.

Brought in more channels non amplified antenna
on June 4, 2016
Posted by: Steve
from NJ
Verified Purchase:Yes
This antenna brought in more channels than a non amplified indoor antenna we had been using. Only problem was that, in order to get in the weakest channels in our area, we had to have the antenna in a window and spread out as wide as possible which was awkward positioning for the room.

After piecemeal setup, device worked as advertised
on June 4, 2016
Posted by: Steve
from NJ
Verified Purchase:Yes
I found that this Roku - Streaming Stick (2016 Model) is quite fast at connecting to application sites, "channels," and in downloading programs in high definition quality when available. However, the initial setup was arduous because each channel had to be added individually. It also would have been nice if this steaming stick would show 4k content (but that is reserved for a pricier model).

Adequate for small rooms or close outdoor settings
on April 22, 2016
Posted by: Steve
from NJ
Verified Purchase:Yes
Volume is adequate for small rooms and for low noise outdoor settings in which all people are sitting within about 8 to10 feet of this "boom" box. This is the best reasonably priced battery operated unit offering such volume. (It does come with an AC adapter cord that can be attached and used). Would have been nice if it could recharge boombox batteries. It will recharge your MP3 player or other unit attached to its USB port, but only when boombox is connected to AC. This boombox's carry weight is not burdensome. The online description of this Insignia boombox, under specifications, list "Yes" for both Remote Control Included and Headphones Included. Neither, however, actually are included. When using its Bluetooth source, you can use your Bluetooth MP3 player or cellphone app player to control volume and change songs, playlists, etc. But, for AM and FM radio and CD you will need to use controls on the boombox.

Had to return first one after week.
on March 18, 2015
Posted by: Steve
Verified Purchase:Yes
Display of the first one of this model never worked correctly. But I exchanged it at the same Best Buy for another of the same model and for about a month now it has worked flawlessly. I'm cautiously optimistic that it will continue to do so. First Panasonic product I have purchased in sometime, but it had been receiving mostly great reviews.

Do I need this device if I have the Netgear - Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Tri-Band Wi-Fi Router (R8000)?
I currently have a Netgear Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Tri-Band Wi-Fi Router (R8000). How much better will this extender make the router? Or is this over kill? I have my router on the middle floor(home is three stories). Do I also place this on the middle floor?
Unless you are having problems with WIFI signal strength somewhere in your home (or if applicable yard), I wouldn't bother with the expense of a WIFI range extender.

Is this malfunction covered under warranty?
you can set the function you want, it will start then suddenly stop no sound at all. It seems to be a major part. I have had it a little over a year, to soon to break down.
I try to always buy extended warranty for these types of products. I brought the maximum four year extended warranty with Best Buy. Hopefully, your's is still under warranty.
