Just okay

It steps you through the process and even if you aren’t tech savvy it seems straightforward. There is an app the corresponds with it and it validates that it is working. I honestly can’t say that it made a huge difference. I was hoping areas where things weren’t loading properly or buffering for a long time would be corrected. It hasn’t changed this. I was hoping it would bring the internet out by my pool, it did not work for that either. So although it is easy to install it only appears to make a minor change in the overall working of the system. In fairness there is a company laying fiber in my neighborhood and I question if they are messing with coverage since I have never had the level of issues I have had lately which is why I sought out this device. It takes up half of a power outlet and has four blue lights so it is not discreet. It has you install it close to your router and then move it to where your problem area is and hope that it is close enough to connect back.

Posted .Hi Mary,
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/
Alternatively, our Deco Mesh Systems have Outdoor options, such as the Deco X50-Outdoor and Deco BE65-Outdoor, which offer weatherproof Mesh Wi-Fi coverage for your outdoor areas.
If you would like assistance with your TP-Link networking devices, 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,

Not so Mesh Friendly
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.To start off, I have the Deco BE36000 Mesh WiFi 7 system. I wanted to try this out to get more coverage in the backyard. First thing, right off the bat, I noticed that this device uses a DIFFERENT app than what my existing system uses, which is Deco. I thought that was weird, same ecosystem, but a different app? Anyways, the app is Tether, so I installed it, set up the device, but named the SSID the same as my existing network and I attempted to use the EasyMesh feature, but it does not work with my Deco BE3600.... This is annoying and frustrating considering that TP-Link boasts that the BE36000 is a mesh system, yet, this range extender with the same model name can't even properly mesh with my existing ecosystem? The speeds I got when connected to the device were atrocious. It just does not like being forced to try to mesh with my existing system. As a simple range extender, its great. But that is not what I need or want, I don't want a separate SSID, I want a one simple mesh system, which this fails to ultimately offer.

Posted .Hi BPTech,
Thank you for your review. TP-Link Wi-Fi Range Extenders offer the ability to copy the Wi-Fi name and password of your original network, so your wireless devices can automatically connect between it and your router. You can conveniently do this during setup, or by using the Tether app.
While it will not directly integrate with the Deco ecosystem, proprietary Deco features, or the Deco app, the extended network operates within the same LAN as your router, so devices on the extender can conveniently communicate with devices connected to the router.
