Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a solid range extender, although I do find that the mesh capability is a bit slow when handing off your signal from one unit to another. The range is also not very excellent, especially since I recommend lowering the broadcast power to the lowest setting to prevent the unit from overheating. If you keep it on the lowest setting and place it in a good location, everything will work fine. It likely needs additional firmware updates to get the best results.

Impressive speeds, but be sure to note that 6GHz naturally cannot travel as far 5GHz (which already has less range than 2.4GHz). If you want to ensure that you are leveraging the 6GHz channel as a backhaul for OneMesh, then make sure you check the Tether app to confirm the PHY speeds your getting on the 6GHz channel and move the extender a bit closer to optimize performance if necessary. Using an AXE5400 wifi card, I’m seeing speeds in excess of 1Gb/s when accessing an NVMe SSD connected via a USB adapter directly linked to my router. At most I’ve seen 1.2Gb/s through 5GHz at 30-40 feet away through a floor. My iPhone 13 Pro Max maxes (ba-dum-tisss) out at around 800Mb/s with this new setup, but expect a bit less under realistic conditions. I’m using a TP-Link AXE300 router with 3 of these extenders and the lowest speeds I’m seeing indoors ranges from 200-350MB/s. My house has thick stone walls that transition into wooden siding above the stone, but the wooden siding has metal sheeting under it. With that said, I will not comment on outdoor performance as my house is essentially a faraday cage that wifi cannot escape and cell service cannot enter. The good news is that the AXE300 router and these extenders support OneMesh, so the TP-Link PowerLine WiFi extender that I already have still integrates seamlessly with this setup and allows me to have usable WiFi outdoors.

I got this product in July 2024 to replace my five year old linksys extender. I read really good reviews about this product and I wanted to upgrade so I bought it. I place it exactly in the old spot as the older one. Easy set up and connection to my Wi-Fi router was 100 percent. However, it didn't provide any better connection to my smart TVs, computer or smart voice radio. It gets disconnected most of the day and I have to unplug and connect again to the power outlet. I can't depend on this extender to have a zoom meeting because it doesn't provide fast enough downloads or uploads. I would return it if I could and buy another Linksys system.

Router is in my basement and i have the extender set up in my room on the second floor. I have an ethernet cable wired into my ps4 from the extender and i get 290+ mbps download compared to 20 mbps. Took me 10 mins

A great extender. Awesome signal upstairs and down stairs. Use it with phones and laptops with no loss of connection and speed.

The signal seems to be stronger and found at all corners of the 3000 sq ft home. Simple process to activate unit with an app System has a simple clean look to it.

Seems to work great. No issues. Easy to set up. Son keeps unplugging it and when it gets plugged back in, there is no issues with reconnecting it.

Easy to set up some reading envolved but it works good.

Router works great! No problems since purchase. I wish it could be a little less bulky but for the most part it works.

Love this extender! I was a unsure about buying this because Ive never had anything from tp link, but im glad i made the purchase. It works perfect, very good range, and i game alot and have not had any issues with with high ping. If your looking for a range extender i recommended you give this one a try you wont regret it.

Great and you get what you pay i don’t regret buying it.

excellent product for inside home and stability for hostpost so far!!!!!

The Extender was worth it. It allowed me to extend my signal to my detached garage so I could have strong enough signal to setup MyQ and Ring Camera. Others I tried simply weren't quite strong enough or had spotty connection issues. Setup was easy and the app allows me to configure it the way I like. It's solid and well built. It's also heavier than most and a bit big. It does take an entire outlet but it definitely does the job.

In the past I've stayed away from TP-Link, there was no reason, I just found Amazon Eero and Linksys to suffice. We rented a new house and unfortunately AT&T brought fiber into the house in the farthest left front corner of the house. Not ideal. I hooked up the Eero Mesh consisting of 1 router and 2 access points and was getting a weak, inconsistent signal. On average, I would get 150 to 200 MBPS down and 75 to 150 MBPS up. It's not bad, but I have 1 GBPS fiber. Trying to resolve the issue I first purchased the TP-Link Wi-Fi 6E AX5400 PCIe card, it was a slight upgrade to the onboard NIC. Then I purchased the TP-Link Archer AXE300 6E router to replace the entire mesh. Surprisingly, from the same computer, from the one router I was seeing a more consistent signal with both the up and down speeds from 240 to 280 Mbps. Still hoping to get more out of my fiber speed, I noticed the TP-Link AXE5400 range extender. It arrived yesterday, and for me it was setup in only a couple of minutes. Durning the setup, the Tether app did hiccup once, but ultimately it didn't cause issues. The range extender picked up all three frequencies (2.4, 5, and 6 GHZ). Now from the same computer, I can see the 6E signal and full bars and when I did the speed test it averages between 550 and 580 both down and up. I found the TP-Link ranger extender to exceed my expectations.

I recently upgraded my WiFi to a TP-Link ARCHER AXE75 tri-band router. Rather than the third band being a second 5G band, it's a 6E band. Like 5G compared to 2.74G, the 6E has a significantly smaller sphere of distance connectivity-wise, so there were spots in my home that my 6e capable device couldn't connect without backing down to the 5G band. The only compatible extender TP-Link has as of right now with 6e capability is the RE815XE. Yes, it's pricey currently, but after setting it up via an Ethernet cable for maximum speed, my entire household has excellent coverage for all three bands. I love that the extender has the option to turn off the status lights and also allows a schedule for having the lights on or off. It's large and I have it plugged in to a short extension cable to the power strip so it doesn't take up two or three spots. The antennae are adjustable. It shows up along with the router on the Tether app. Very easy to use. If you're more concerned about speed and connectivity than you are about a cheap extender, just remember that in this case you definitely get what you pay for.

The set up was easy using the Tether App just follow the instructions. It works exceptional with my WiFi 6GHz band. Really extends it out. But it will also extend your 5.0GHz band and 2.4GHz band. Worth the money for sure. And it stays connected. And has no problems re-connecting if there is a power loss, or you need to reboot your router or modem. So far so great.

It delivers fast speeds and covers all the wesk signal areas in the house. Easy control and monitoring through the app. Would recommend if you are far away from the router

Range and speed is great and surprisingly strong through concrete filled cinder block walls (Florida).

Was able to add this extender on to my Orbi 960 mesh system. Increases reception to my outdoor ring cameras. This is the 2nd one I have added. I did have a Netgear extender, however the Netgear extender would disconnect periodically. The TP-Link axe5400 is the way to go as it will work with almost any existing WIFI system

Once we were able to set it up it worked okay. Setup started out well but then it took forever to get it to properly connect. Would say every thing was good but then it would force us to start over.
