    This was fairly easy to set up. We had a huge dead zone in our house and the extender has helped a great deal. I didn't give it 5 stats because though it was not hard to set up, it was not super easy either and we had to move it several times.

    Being computer dumb, I had to get my son-in-law to set this up. I'm sure my dog could have done it as well. It does run warm which is some concern for me. My wife said the far outside camera dose run a little faster.

    Does the trick but be aware it creates an an extension of your wife network so your devices have to switch networks when walking across your home. Not the biggest deal as the switch is relatively flawless but still good to know

    The TP-Link did not solve our issue so we took returned it. Honestly our issue was a tall order that ATT couldn't handle either. TP-Link was the least expensive option.

      Hi JimS,

      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 extend its range effectively. 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, enter 1406 in the top-right search field, and then click the corresponding FAQ in the search results.

      We regret to hear you ultimately decided to return the extender. If you have any questions about our products in the future, our support team is always happy to help. Feel free to contact us through any of the resources provided with the product or on our official website, and a Support Agent will follow up with you directly.

      Thank you,
      TP-Link Systems Support tplink
