      Hi Eyesick,

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

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

    Used it for a security camera in a detached garage. It took a number of tries to get the unit to work consistently. I seem to have come up with the combination.

    Works well. Easy initial set up but after a connectivity fail with my Netgear router, I had to make an adjustment to my router settings. Has worked well since
