Q: QuestionWe currently have Wow internet. We would like to replace the router they are providing. We currently have wifi & stream Netflicks on our smart DVD player & Mac. We also have 2 iPhones. Will this work as a replacement? If not what do we need? Thanks

• A:Answer If your existing router is both a router and a modem combined in one unit, then no, this cannot fully replace it. However, if you have a separate modem from your existing router, then this router should be able to replace your existing router just fine.

Q: QuestionCan I use this in a car?

Asked 6 years ago by Nini.

• A:Answer You can use it anywhere you have power to plug it in and an existing network to connect to. If you are asking if it will provide you with an internet connection where none exists, then the answer is no. This is just a router than connects to an existing internet connection/network through a cable or wi-fi and then shares that connection with other devices using wi-fi.

Q: QuestionWhere I live the wifi service is not to good.the signals comes and goes. Will this product help the service or will it come and go as the signals in this area?

Asked 6 years ago by Hyunkchoi27.

• A:Answer In short - not likely. WiFi extenders work by repeating the signal they receive from the source. If your source signal is poor or intermittent in your area, the extender will receive and repeat said signal if placed in the same area. To benefit from a WiFi extender, ideally, it should be placed in an area where the source signal is sufficiently strong; yet far enough from it to extend its range. Regards, TP-Link Suppor
