## Most critical reviews (6 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Optimizer won’t connect

*2025-10-24, version 1.06*

I agree with the other one star reviews. I did everything EXACTLY as the setup guide instructed. Downloaded the worthless app. The app freezes up. It doesn’t matter what you do, the Optimizer will not connect. This kit is a TOTAL waste of money. It’s going in the dumpster. Very frustrating.

### 1/5 — Will not connect.

*2025-03-22, version 1.06*

I cannot connect to the Optimizer.  Finally had to just forget the network because. I could not connect the network to the internet.  A waste of money.

### 1/5 — Does not work any more

*2023-07-23, version 1.06*

Pivotel / Global Marine has not corrected a problem where iPhone 8 with ver. 16.  App used to work great.  With their last update a year ago no longer works. Don’t under stand why they won’t resolve. This problem as it’s also effecting other iPhone models too. Hard to get support from them

### 1/5 — WXa-213 extender  as well not compatible with the Halo WiFi app.

*2023-07-03, version 1.06*

WXa-213 extender is not compatible either with the Halo WiFi app. Pivotel has not solved the problem!

### 1/5 — App quit allowing access to Optimizer

*2023-02-21, version 1.06*

App no longer allows configuring the Optimizer Router wXa-122. To connect to a WiFi network, a web browser must be used. The app on iPhone is not useable for some reason. Pivotel has not been able to resolve the issue.
I don’t recommend it.

### 5/5 — Works Good

*2018-09-15, version 1.01*

Easy to use, would be nice if it redirected you to the sign-in pages of captive portal WiFi sites that many place have set-up now.
