Have decided (no experiments =) the same for a brand product and have not looked back. The repeater, 2 days after the order came, settled in a few minutes via WPS (6sec press the button on the repeater and then the corresponding button on the router press briefly) to the WLAN of the Netgear router couple and working properly. The router is in the basement and the repeater is in a socket on the first floor. Wi-Fi is now available throughout the hotel with good reception performance. The network name (taken from the router and if necessary subsequently changed) is with us always the same, only the second access point came with use of the repeater added newly. In the router configuration menu you can find easily the repeater assigned IP address (192.168.xx) and can then select the repeater via a browser. Meanwhile, the configuration menu is very informative and clearly structured. So you can include the so-called. Configure "Night Service", ie set when the repeater should be switched off and if z. B. the LEDs to be deaktiert. Who does not require a LAN port on the repeater (as in 300), can save about 20 here and pick up the 310. The wireless technology should be the same. Conclusion: working properly, even without Fritz box, and so strong buy recommendation!
