      Hi,

      Thank you for your review. In your case, 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. To locate this FAQ, visit our website and enter 1406 in the top-right search field, then click the corresponding FAQ in the search results.

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

    I purchased to extend my wifi connection and have more internet strength on dead spots. It didn’t improve significantly and even the installation was easy what it was meant didn’t help.

      Hi,

      Thank you for your review.

Please verify the RE status LED is indicating a solid connection.
