Customer Ratings & Reviews

I got one of these because I moved and the new house's electrical grid didn't work with powerline adapters. I've had good experience with the powerlines, so I hoped these would be comparable. I have to use these because I rent my house and run a home server so instead of trying to run a long ethernet cable from the router to the closet I keep the server in, these kinds of devices help out a ton. That said, I chose this model for the ethernet port. I don't need the range extension at all, just the port. I set the device up with the OneMesh, which my router supported. Devices see it as the router, not as being connected to an extender, so it's hard to say if there was any difference with or without it. You manage the extender from the app and in there, you can switch the network ID to something else and connect to it directly like a separate router. Since I was only in this for the ethernet port, the OneMesh setup was fine. As far as how they compare to the powerline adapters, the kind of don't... at least for the ethernet. It's better than nothing, but I'm still tempted to run a cable instead. Speeds will be ok for a while, but eventually they get really dismal. Gets a little hot, but it doesn't seem so hot that it would cause problems. There is also nothing electronic between the router and the extender... just a couple of walls. Unplugging it for a minute will sometimes kick it back up a little, but in general, it's sluggish. Accessing files on the server while the extender is being iffy is very slow and painful. I can't really say whether the WiFi extender works well because I didn't have bad coverage to begin with. So my current opinion of this (for the ethernet port, at least) is that if your electrical wiring can handle it, go with the powerline. I can't really say much on the Wi-Fi extension.

Works great. Exactly what I needed for extended my WiFi.

Easy set up and works fine. Less expensive and does the job.

The range extender is used to reach a part of our home where there is no computer cable, but where it is needed. It works! The Extender found the router as soon as it was extended, and has continued to work flawlessly, even recovering from power outages without any intervention. Highly recommended.

Works great! Having multiple networks helps a lot!

Great range. Very easy to link up with my router. Easy instructions.

Simple and quick setup. App is easy to use to find the best location. Boost is solid.

Although my elderly parents live in a fairly small apartment in an assisted living facility, the in-apartment WiFi router provided by the building didn't reach the computer room with any strength. This device mostly fixed their problems. I say mostly, because on setup, the extender didn't find the 2.4Gh signal, only the 5G signal. It was not immediately clear how to fix this and I didn't have time to redo the setup and risk messing up what was already working. The setup, while not too difficult, seemed harder than it should have been.

Excellent range extemder. Took a little while to get it set up but now that it is, we haven’t had a single issue.

Very good product, I had no network signal in the basement. After I installed it, the signal throughout the house improved a lot. Great product!

Easy to install and fixed the problem. The app is nice. Wi-Fi signal wasn't getting to an outside bedroom. Everything streams perfectly now. Signal strength in that room is like it was in the room with the router.

Great product, easy to set up. My expectations weren’t high because of the low price but this little guy is amazing! Set up took 5 minutes and it expanded the reach of our WiFi through our home. We’ve had multiple extenders from our internet carrier and none have worked as well as this.

Worked very well! Typically extenders tend to brick but this worked very well and gave us some fast speeds.

Excellent product, very easy to install and configure. Connects well with the wifi and transmits stable ethernet connection. Overall, very happy with this purchase

Easy to set up! Was having buffering in my back area of my house now by adding the tp link extender i have zero issues. A great product that i highly recommend.

Definitely a good budget wifi extension, turned my download speeds from 20 mgb to 130-150 mgb.

Easy to setup, app works great, fantastic range and speed. I own two of these and now have excellent coverage inside and outside.

My 14 year old and I 72 hooked this up with no problem last week. We have 3 levels in the house and put it in the 2nd level and it works great.

4200 square foot home and needed to boost to the outside and this TP link range extender worked perfect and gave the outside as strong a signal as inside! I placed in in an outlet just inside the house , and once you plug it in , that’s it! It attaches to your signal and BOOM, you have a strong signal!

Bought two of these for my home they work great love them
