    Great extender. Has a lot of power. We got great advice while we were in the store on different extenders. This is the one we went with. It also was on sale which was a plus.

    It's a decent extender. Main issues being that regardless if you have 2.4GHZ or 5GHZ, it will sometimes perform below average for what's supposed to provide a bigger range. It's stated to give out a 150 - 300 MBPS performance, but after many tests through these downtimes, it would push out 30 - 50MBPS. But it's on the rare occasions, normally it works as branded so long as it's within reach and so long as your Internet connection is on the high end.

      Hello Piscane,

      The speed rating listed for the extender is often seen in relation to Internet speeds, but it actually refers to the maximum transmit rates. Transmission rates refer to the speeds at which devices communicate within a network. Due to the nature of Range Extenders, the speed is often lower than that of a router with a similar signal strength. Their main purpose is to increase range. Sometimes speed is improved but often it is not. tplink

    This worked really well when we couldn’t run cables to our living room. We watch tv & game from the signal & it does well for us.

    Very easy setup and keeps the speed of our internet and allows us to extent the range to parts of our house where we were getting weak signal.

    Went from less than 1 bar of WiFi to no delays at all, saving me at least $30 a month on my own internet plan. The Tether app confused me at first (my roommate was out of town and I couldn’t access their router to do the easier options). I thought that I was connecting the router to the extender, but it turned out it was connecting the app to the extender, if the app doesn’t seem to be working, don’t connect your router, connect your extender.

    The Range extender mode is a bit wonky, maybe doubles your pre existing speeds at best, however the access point mode works flawlessly and I am now getting gig down speeds in an otherwise WiFi poor area.

    Bought for my parents house. Simple and effective haven't had any issues. We can all connect with no drop in speeds when having family gatherings. They never seem to complain so that's good too. I don't know why they don't make these with a grounded plug the only downside is with the two plug if you have it on a vertical wall it sags a little with the weight.

    Easy to install. Instructions were clear and easy to follow. It has made a huge difference in my connectivity. Before I couldn't even browse online for 30 seconds, and now I can attend and be a part of an online conference for multiple hours without freezing and/or glitching. Definitely would buy it again if the need arises.

    The instructions tell you a few different ways to set up this extender to your existing Wi-Fi. I decided to use the app and it was set up in just a few minutes. I have had it a few weeks and everything is working great and no issues at all. I am able to have Wi-Fi everywhere in the house now. I like that you can secure it will a password.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent Wi-Fi Booster! This Wi-Fi booster made a huge difference in my home. Setup was quick and easy, and the connection instantly got stronger in the rooms that used to have weak or spotty signal. Streaming, gaming, and browsing are all smoother now with no interruptions. It’s compact, reliable, and does exactly what it promises. If you need better coverage, this extender is a great choice!

    I have poor WiFi strength in my office which is at the other end of the house from the router. With the extender, the signal is stronger and speeds are faster. Of course, it is not as fast as having the laptop near the router, but much faster than relying on the weak signal without the extender. This is what I expected. The range extender was easy to setup.

    This extender is the over all bang for the buck. In my house hold the people that use the extender are online contantly streaming and playing video games 3 to 4 people at a time and the signal is strong and reliable. Super easy set up with the mobile app.
