Score: 67/100
TP-Link RE403
Score: 75/100Rankings
The TP-Link RE403BE is a dual-band Wi-Fi 7 extender offering up to 6.3 Gbps throughput, Multi-Link Operation and a 2.5 Gbps Ethernet port, targeting high-density environments. Trade-offs include the absence of a 6 GHz band and only one wired port, which may limit flexibility for some users. Best suited for households with Wi-Fi 7 routers needing high-speed coverage for many devices.
The Netgear EX3700 is a compact wall-plug AC750 extender with FastLane technology and a single 10/100 Ethernet port. Its limited speed and lack of gigabit Ethernet restrict high-performance use. Perfect for small apartments where simplicity and space savings are priorities.

Products in the top-left offer the best value (high score, low price).
Professional reviewers and editors were not found in the source data; however, manufacturer documentation highlights the device’s FastLane technology for a combined high‑speed link, external antennas for better coverage, and its suitability for small‑area Wi‑Fi extension.
No direct consumer reviews were located; typical user feedback for similar extenders mentions appreciation for the simple setup and compact design but notes reduced speeds in multi‑device environments and the outdated AC750 performance.
User feedback is limited, but support documentation reveals recurring concerns about initial setup failures, SSID visibility problems, and occasional extender stoppages, which are typically resolved through firmware updates or the TP-Link Tether app. Positive sentiment centers on the device's ability to handle many devices and provide a stable wired connection via its Gigabit port.
