Customer Ratings & Reviews

Easy setup, great signal strength, and outstanding transfer speeds. The device has an offset power plug on the back, allowing installation in either direction. This allowed me to install it hanging down from my plug so I could still use the other socket. It doesn't have anything securing it in place, so if your outlet is loose, then this device may fall out. Choosing this device was nearly the same price as buying another router that could be configured to do the same job. Routers are larger and more complicated to configure as a repeater. If you have the technical know-how and the space for installation, I would recommend considering a router over this device.

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

Added WiFi signal to remote regions of my house. Very easy set up

Can't recommend this. Doesn't give the flexibility or features as some competitors do for this type of product. Doesn't give much of a signal boost. It's so small, I'd say moving the router a foot would give it the same signal strength increase. Does setup fairly easily. But for me (and what seems like the entire tp-link forum), without a dedicated wired backhaul with OneMesh, this probably not going to solve your coverage needs. Even as an AP, without a wired backhaul, it's not much use. With the new 5GB internet and a 10GB TP-Link router provided by the ISP, was hoping the TP-Link ecosystem would be similar to competitors like Asus. But It's not even close. Feels like the TP-Link ecosystem is 5-10 years behind. But if TP-Link can get OneMesh with wired backhaul, then I'm willing to change my review. Please TP-Link, add wired backhaul features in the next firmware update.

Extremely fast, easy to set up, wide range, just know it doesn't have an out USB port so you can't chain to a computer with ethernet for VR connection. Great product!

Been using it for a while now it has extended my range by a lot of megabytes per second in rooms that would’ve never reached if I didn’t have this device overall really good purchase

Yes, this product has helped, but I still feel that I may got too much stuff running off of it.

Having recently gone with the Archer AXE300 I found a coverage gap and needed a mesh system. Fortunately this unit connects seamlessly and even without a hardwired connection filled the gap perfectly. It uses a 6ghz backhaul channel to connection to the router. I think there is a minimal loss in speed but it’s only noticeable using Speedtest. I plan on hardwiring it in the near future but definitely would recommend it if you need to fill in coverage gaps

I needed a router that could bridge and looked the convenience I thought I'd get being able to just plug into the wall. Unfortunately, my other tp link routers are the Tapo mesh system, and this is not, so it didn't really work well with them, which was my only complaint, and my reason for return. If they make a tapo version it would be perfect!

If you want to just expand your wifi for non gaming stuff then the speed is not bad, i was getting almost 500mbps close to the extender and at that moment internet was 1gig, but is not bad 500mbps but i wont trust that for gaming, price is too high, the app is nice but probably needs more adjustments. Works i guess with any router, i was able to use it with a netgear router.

Works like a champ! Coverage in my house is stellar! Setup was a breeze. It even lets you know if it can be further away from the base router. Love it!

These seem to work well, but require a weekly reboot, in order to maintain a good connection to my ring cameras. Once a week I’ll notice that the signal strength of my ring cameras is extremely poor. After a reboot of the extender (not camera), the signal is excellent. It would be great if a reboot schedule could be implemented into its settings, so it could automatically reboot at a desired time. Right now I have to manually log in and reboot it, and that’s not ideal. My tp-link routers have this feature, so I’m not sure why these do not.

This is the best and easiest to use Wi-Fi extender I've ever installed and it's 6E capable for increased connection speeds. I love the TP-Link Tether app that allows advanced settings control for this product and their routers where they work together seamlessly for my home security cameras system and digital door locks.

i not kidding. that lazy fiber guy installed the fiber modem in the basement (i shouldn't gave him 20$ tip, i didnt realized wifi6e sensitive to distance). im upstair first floor, about 2 rooms away, i getting around 400mb. after i installed this extender upstair near the router, i getting 600+ mb in my room that is 2 rooms away. my sonic internet plan is "up to" 10Gb

Let me start by saying that this router is probably overkill for most people. I purchased it for specific reasons. My security cameras are a far distance from my house and power outlets. This is one of the few extenders that puts out 30db wireless power. The most allowed by the FCC. It fits nicely in my back porch outlet. I could have used a regular router as an extender and got the same results for less money, but I would have had to mount it somewhere and run the power wire to it. I also own a TP-Link as my main router, so this extender connected as a mesh extender flawlessly. Also, I prefer to set up my equipment using a web browser without signing up for an account. TP-Link lets you do that, although they also have the option of making an account and using an app. The only negative I have is that it did not update its firmware automatically. I had to do it manually. Not something most people will do. If you want a powerful extender that tucks away nicely or extends 6ghz wireless, you may want to pay the premium for this. If you want to save money, there are other good extenders or routers that will do the same thing for less money.

Helped get the signal further to outside cameras!!

This worked really well and very easy to set up. I has problems with dropped calls once i stepped outside my house( live in a very wooded area). I have not had any problema since i put it in my garage.

This was a game changer for me! My internet can be spotty which is horrible for playing rocket league for example. I didn’t know what route I should go but I gave this a shot. I play in a room one floor above and on opposite side of my router. Plugged this into the hallway outside of the room I play in and I have had NO issues since. Very much worth it & highly recommend

Awesome product very east too use and amazing features

Works great! Have extended WiFi where I couldn’t get a signal before. Easy setup.
