    Decent but not great

    I used this for hotel rooms and AirBNBs where the WiFi is some distance away. Signal improvement is ~okay~ but not amazing, and it’s a pain to set up if you’re frequently using different networks.

      Hi BobBP,

      Thank you for your review. If you haven't noticed a significant improvement in Wi-Fi coverage after installing the extender, we suggest relocating the unit to a spot in the home where the router's Wi-Fi signal is strong but still far enough away to extend its range effectively. Please check that the RE status LED shows 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/

      For quick and intuitive setup between networks, we highly recommend using the TP-Link Tether app, which lets you configure and manage the Range Extender and other TP-Link networking products from the convenience of your smartphone.

      If you would like assistance with any of these steps, please reach out to our 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 Systems Support tplink

      Hi Alexus,

      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/
