    improved laptop WiFi connection

    Laptop's internet connection often sluggish, sometimes dropped. Router was only about 10 yards away, but perhaps the signal was impeded by the 2 walls and one floor between? Followed the simple instructions to install this TP-Link N300 Range Extender half way between. Presto! Immediate improvement. Very very cost-effective improvement! NOTE: intalling the Extender on a direct line of sight with laptop optimized the results; other locations I tried were not as effective.

    Works well to extend the wi-fi signal to numerous devices including Roku on two guest room tv’s. Would definitely recommend.

    Junk

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This thing is junk I've never had something more useless in my entire life. I bought this on the assumption that it would extend my Wi-Fi and it did just that the first 5 minutes then I started having all kinds of WiFi problems I indeed verified that it was a good spot for the extender. Followed all the steps to the T and it would keep disconnecting over and over it said it was in a perfect spot so I kind of got really frustrated what really made me matter was when I unplugged it and my Wi-Fi started working perfectly the thing is useless don't buy this what good is a Wi-Fi extender and extra Wi-Fi if it doesn't work sure it extends your Wi-Fi but what good is it if you can't use it.

      Hi,

      If you haven't noticed a significant improvement in WiFi coverage after installing the extender, we recommend relocating the unit to a position within your home where the router's WiFi 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'd like assistance with any of these steps, please reach out to our free 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,

    I don’t find any improvement

    The reason I bought this router is that my main router is downstairs and I work upstairs. Sometimes I used have problems with zoom meetings and thought if I have WiFi booster it may help. However, it’s not helping, I still have problems with zoom. I now connect to main router and it’s much better than this extension. Maybe my usecase is different , it may actually be more useful for rooms where signal is nil and want some coverage there. In my case I was looking for boosting the signal.

    The internet though the extender is not as good as when connected directly to the router, but it is good enough to allow us to stream shows and movies where the router signal was too weak before.

    I Didn't Expect A $20 Gadget to Work So Well

    Our router is downstairs, and we didn't have a great spot to install this extender, but we put it in an outlet that was at least somewhat closer. Installation took about ten minutes, because we're not very computer-savvy. It solved the problems with streaming, which had been blanking out and dipping in function about 30% of the time. I bought this during the COVID-19 period, and I have to say I appreciate Best Buy's parking lot pickup. Well done, folks!

    This worked perfect for my cameras outside until I added a couple more camera untis. Then it stopped working. Im guessing too much bandwidth. Still use it but in another area of the home. Works great.

      Dear Grandma2000,

      Thank you for reviewing our product.

      By design, range extenders are implemented to improve wireless reception among your wifi enabled devices, which as a result may improve your download speeds, however if signal strength isn't a concern, extenders may do more harm than good.

      If you have any further questions or concerns regarding this product, at your earliest convenience, please contact our 24/7 support team via the number and /or email provided below and our support agents will happily assist you.


      Best Regards!
