Basic, but excellent value!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If all you need is a range extender (and not additional ports, for example), then I highly recommend this product! It was very, very simple to setup and does exactly what it says it will do.

Worked as advertised
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had one smart tv on the far wall of my house that did not get good signal and ran slower than anything else in the house. We added this device in the hallway and it greatly improved the signal strength.

Works
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works as expected after set up. Able to connect to android. Thought would have more capability; ease of connecting to TV or laptop, other devices ect., and based on unsecured. Not sure if I should trust using it yet or not, especially for personal reasons.

Works Pretty Good
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought a new T-Mobile wifi tower to lower the cost internet cost. We're thankful for lower cost but it's not strong enough for our 2 story house. So, we purchased this TP-LINK to spread the wifi signal upstairs. It works pretty good but not super strong. It'll do for now.

It has worked very well for us.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I waited a long time to write this review. I have had this thing for 2 and a half years. At first I had trouble getting it to work because I wasn’t placing it at the right distance from the router, but as soon as I worked out that little hiccup, I never had another problem with it. I can see others have struggled with this product, but that just hasn’t been my experience with this at all.
