    Before I installed this wireless extender, my Smart TV would constantly go out or stall. This wireless extender did the job and my Smart TV works beautifully now and does not stall or freeze any longer. I highly recommend this wireless extender!

    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

    It was really easy to set up, WiFi is fast, only thing u might worry about is concealing the Ethernet cord because it’s quite ugly to just have around

    Purchased product for my friends shop and he’s had great luck. Have it on my covered patio for extended range. I can perform lawn work (mow, burn brush, etc) on all of my 1.5 acres and still get Wi-Fi signal.

    Get a much better and more consistent signal on the lower level of my house now. It does not have the same speeds as directly connecting to the router, but the speed is still more than acceptable through the extender.

    There is no much to say. It does the job done that it was built up. This wifi extender resolved the issue that we have in our bedroom where my wife’s desk is located. She was happy with it because she has no more dropped from the wife and can work remotely a lot smoother.
