    Purchased this for my parents, and they are very pleased with it! They have much better signal further away from their router now. Easy set up as well.

    So happy with this Wi-Fi extender. We purchased this for our RV hoping we would get better Wi-Fi reception in out 5th Wheel. It works Great! Without it we couldn’t connect to the Campground wi-fi service because of Poor reception. After plugging it in it jumped to excellent reception. This makes us Happy Campers!

    I tried this out to help extend the wifi for my ring cameras. It did help, but not significantly so I decided to return. Didn’t realize I only had a 2 week window to do so I had to receive store credit which was a bummer.

      Posted .

      Hi,

      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: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/1406/

      If you would like assistance with any of these steps, please contact 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 Support tplink

    This totally helped extend service on the other side of the house and made life easier. Might get another one for outdoors in the spring.
