    A power spike scrambled my 1st expander. My replacement was a cheap, Chinese rip off, that was intermittent at best. My son in law said to stick to a name brand like TP-Link. It works great, has never required a reboot and is worth a 5-star rating.

    I needed a way to extend my routers signal in my business to computers in the back of my store. This really gave me the bandwidth I needed for wifi and ethernet away from the router. This manages 10+ devices & the price to performance is reasonable. I will get a third one for home.

    I purchased this to extend my WI Fi while temporarily living in a condo during my move across the state, the had its own Wi Fi and I needed a boost It was not the best. Had trouble connecting. When I bought my house, I needed a boost of Wi Fi. This was not the best choice. Needed stronger signal

      Posted .

      With Range Extenders, placement is everything. Extenders can only provide what they receive so to get a good signal, you need to place the extender in an open, unobstructed area with a strong signal from the host AP/Router. If you do have the product in such an area then please make sure its fully updated on the latest firmware and if you need to reach out to TP-Link support for assistance. tplink
