Yes, I'd recommend this product.

After confirming our home internet met the requirements, setup was very easy. Our phones connected quickly after dialing #48 and we now have full coverage at home.

The old Samsung range extender worked great for many years, but they stopped supporting it. I spent DAYS with tech support until we found out that my new one was defective. After 25 years, I was about to cancel Verizon, but they promised me another new one AND a tech to install it. I received the new one and called Verizon about my Tech appointment, but of course, they KNEW NOTHING about any appointment! We did get it connected finally. but this new LTE extender is a VERY poor substitute. I was getting 4 bars everywhere but now it's 2 bars everywhere unless I'm within a couple of feet to the extender, then it's 3 bars. I get about almost the same without it connected, 1 bar downstairs and one and two bars upstairs.

ASK-SFE116 LTE Extender – Worse Call Quality Than the Retired Samsung Model

vrzn7737378 . 1 month ago

I previously used the Samsung LTE Extender (SLS-BU10B), which worked reliably and delivered clear voice quality. Unfortunately, that unit was retired and replaced by the ASK-SFE116—and this new model has been a step backward. The biggest issue is **voice quality**. During calls, voices frequently **fade in and out**, making conversations frustrating and unreliable. I’ve taken reasonable troubleshooting steps: I configured QoS on my router, placed the extender on its own dedicated, wired network, and verified the connection quality. Despite all of this, the problem persists. For a device intended to improve cellular service, inconsistent call audio is a major failure. At this point, the ASK-SFE116 does not match the performance of its predecessor. Hopefully, a firmware update will address these issues, but until then, this device is disappointing and difficult to recommend.

Works well

Yes, I'd recommend this product.

I used to have the Samsung LTE Extender. While I love it but Verizon decided to retire it so I had to get a replacement. I went to the store, while at the store, I called Verizon Service and got a free replacement. I got the Verizon LTE Extender for free. I went home and set it up, I pulled out the GPS cable from the back and taped it next to a window. I then called Verizon, gave them the MAC ID. Verizon activated it and now it is working like a charm and perfectly, just like my old Samsung device and even better as I have 5 bars constantly anywhere in the house. The key is to open the back compartment and pull out the GPS cable to extend the network to get better signal. This device works. Just need to set it up and call Verizon to activate it.

Does not work as well the old Samsung

The Samsung worked great and you stopped support for it. This is trash.

Please Avoid This Product

Corey . 2 months ago

Verizon gave me this product for free years ago and it has never worked right. My calls are always garbled and my service winds up better when I just pull the plug on the thing and talk outside. This product is not worth anything but frustration when you pay nothing for it, so imagine how you'll feel if you actually pay for it.

Not working at all

Gina . 2 months ago

I previously had Samsung one working perfect and you stop supporting them. This one not working with Spectrum router and not working with Verizon fios as well. Pls update your extender so we would able to use the phone as we should. If I can rated 0 I really would do this.

Hi, I've had my extender now for years and all of a sudden it began malfunctioning. No matter what I do, hard reset, factory reset, unplugging the router, etc.. it just continues to say "too many alarms". We have tried every conceivable solution. Help?

How many watts of power does this use? I need to put it on a battery backup.

Answer from Verizon Customer Support15 days

A Verizon LTE Network Extender typically uses a low amount of power, often in the 6 to 12-watt range, similar to a low-energy lightbulb or some routers, as it's designed for efficiency while extending your 4G LTE signal over your existing internet connection, supporting multiple devices without high energy draw.
