Posted .Hi,
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. To locate this FAQ, visit our website and enter 1406 in the top-right search field, then click the corresponding FAQ in the search results.
If you would 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,
TP-Link Support
Nice Product
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice Range Extender. Worth the money spent. Highly recommend.
I would recommend this to a friendYou get what you pay for
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The setup was easy and quick. I even used the site mapping tool to figure out the best location for the extender. My devices connected fine, but the internet would periodically drop out. I do not experience the internet drop out issue when I use just my router.

Posted .Hi,
When using multiple WiFi sources within a network environment - such as a router combined with an extender - you may come across times where your wireless devices will temporarily drop connection when switching from one WiFi source to the other, commonly called wireless roaming. Please take a moment to look over our FAQ on wireless roaming to ensure that your mobile device is properly set to ensure optimal wireless connection: http://www.tp-link.com/us/faq-592.html
If you'd like assistance with any of these steps, please send an e-mail with your contact information and a copy of this review to USSupportTeam@TP-Link.com and we'll gladly have a Support Agent follow up with you directly.
Thank you,
