Posted .Hi,
Thank you for your review. If you are experiencing difficulty connecting the extender to your router, we recommend setting up the device in the same room as your router, then relocating it after setup is complete. We also suggest re-verifying your router's Wi-Fi password during setup, or if using the WPS setup method, ensuring the WPS process is performed in the correct order. The extender's indicator LEDs will help you determine which position in your home is ideal.
We also highly 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/
Our support team is always happy to help answer any questions you may have about our products. Please feel free to reach out 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,

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: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/1406/

Wifi extender
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great extender. Was easy to set up and works perfectly.
I would recommend this to a friend BEST BUY ONLINE DELIVERY FAIL
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best buy delivered this product to California. I live in TEXAS, have not lived in the other state in 2 years, AND I had changed my Best Buy online address before ordering. (Oh, but you see you apparently have to change your advice TWICE on different pages). Yeah, like it makes sense that I live in TEXAS but would want my order delivered over on the Left Coast. Verdict: Crappy website. Crappy overpriced company. I would give themn ZERO stars for this f'up I could.

IT works and dependable Network work Extender
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a AT&T extender and it was always an if connection. The TP-Link is a rocket in comparison.

Great mesh extender for some tp link routers
