I would recommend this to a friendI do not think it helped much.
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was hoping this would help make our wifi be faster because our modem is all the way on one side of the house, so my bedroom is at the other end and has a poor connection. I do not think this helped at all and a waste of money.

Posted .Hello Bosfd,
So, for extenders to provide the best coverage, you need to install them somewhere between where the router is and where you want service to be extended to. This area must be open and unobstructed, with a strong signal from the router. After all, an extender can only provide what it receives. This will ensure maximum coverage for the extender. But keep in mind the primary focus for an extender is coverage. Speed, in some cases, may improve, but it depends on several factors.
Best Regards

I would recommend this to a friendGood range, easy setup but...
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really liked how easy it was to set this up. And the signal range is perfect. One drawback. Two of my older devices were unable to connect because their hardware limitations, not the router but still.

I would recommend this to a friendDidn’t do anything for internet signal
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Didn’t improve internet signal-I had it downstairs and the router was upstairs, maybe that was it, but on full bars it went slower than the normal router signal when normal router had three of four bars.

Posted .For extenders placement is everything. They should be placed between where the router is and where service is needed. Also, in that placement, they should be connected in an open and unobstructed area with a strong signal from the router. Extenders can only extend the service they receive. Additionally, extenders can only transmit in one direction at a time. Either to the router or to the client. Because of this, internet speeds are often slower than when connected to a router with a similar signal strength.
Not great extension through walls, but easy setup
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy setup, but doesn't extend the wifi very far. Also doesn't penetrate different surfaces well. I purchased this to extend my wifi into my garage for my irrigation control. I needed my wifi to extend an extra 10 more feet or so from where my wifi Access Point could reach. I put this midway between my AP and the irrigation controller and could connect until the garage door was closed. Not worth the $100 I spent on it for the minimal extension of range and lack of ability to penetrate walls.

Posted .Hi,
Thank you for your review. If you haven't noticed a significant improvement in Wi-Fi coverage after installing the extender, we recommend relocating the unit to a position within your home where the router's Wi-Fi signal is sufficiently strong; yet far enough from the router to effectively extend its range. Please verify the RE status LED is indicating a solid connection.
We also recommend ensuring the extender's firmware is fully up-to-date, using the steps outlined in FAQ 1406 on our official website: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/1406/
If you would like assistance with any of these steps, please reach out to our support team using any of the resources included with the product, or from our official website, and we'll gladly have a Support Agent follow up with you directly.
Thank you,
TP-Link Support

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The range extender was necessary for the best pairing for our new outdoor camera. The clarity is amazing after this was installed.
I would recommend this to a friendMeh
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Doubting that i needed range extenders at all. I have a lot of smart devices as well as 4 people in the house who actively stream. What i ended up with was frequent dropped devices, possibky from moving between receivers. I have Archer AX90, two REs in Mesh. Didnt really notice any benefit from this and recently removed them. Maybe i will try hardwiring ethernet and setting them up as APs, but i think uts a waste of time for my house.
