Questionwill this work with an existing wifi mesh system
Asked 6 months ago by tc.
- Answer Hi tc, TP-Link Wi-Fi Range Extenders are designed for universal compatibility with Wi-Fi Routers. The extender can provide additional Wi-Fi coverage in your home. However, depending on the model of your Mesh System, the extender may not fully support all of the proprietary features, exclusive ecosystem, or app used by your Mesh System.

QuestionI have a TP-Link AX1800 router. Will the RE505X (AX1500) extender be a bottleneck? Should I get an extender of equal or higher speed than my main router?
Asked 8 months ago by ccrider.
- Answer An extender, functioning as an extender, will generally be a bottleneck. In most cases, extenders do not improve speed. Their primary purpose is to improve range/coverage.

QuestionI have a TP-Link AX1800. It is plugged into a UPS power backup. The extender will not be. If power goes down, the extender will not have power, but the router will. Will this have an impact on the main router signal output under this scenario?
Asked 8 months ago by Bamanomore.
- Answer If you lose power, its likely the internet provider has lost power as well. If they haven't and the modem is also connected to the UPS, then service and there router should remain online and the router will provide its normal transmission range. The extended range from the extender will not be available unit the device has its power restored and it reconnects to the router. Best Regards TP-Link Systems Support

Asked 11 months ago by HPL.
- Answer I think it'll work for you. I have my Modem and Router in one room at front of hallway to the bedrooms, I placed the Wi Fi extender in living room ( in center of house), and we use computers and iPad and TV in family room at far end of house ( completely opposite end of house from modem). The family room is separated by concrete block from rest of living area. Get good reception everywhere.
