Disclaimers
- ¹Maximum wireless signal rates are the physical rates derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 specifications. Higher capacity is based on laboratory test data, which analyzed the connections of different devices on the 6 GHz, 5 GHz, and 2.4 GHz bands simultaneously. These devices simulated a typical home scenario by running simultaneous applications in the same room that included 4K video, 1080p video, 720p video, file downloading, web browsing, IP cameras, and other IoT devices.
- ²The product may not be compatible with routers or gateways with firmware that has been altered, is based on open source programs, or is non-standard orl outdated.
- ³Uninterrupted Streaming is designed for devices that support the 802.11k/v standard.
- ⁴Use of Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be), Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), and features including Multi-Link Operation (MLO), 320 MHz Bandwidth, 4K-QAM, Multi-RU, OFDMA, and MU-MIMO requires clients to also support the corresponding features. The 320 MHz bandwidth is only available on the 6 GHz band. Simultaneously, the 320 MHz bandwidth on the 6 GHz band and 160 MHz bandwidth on the 5 GHz band may be unavailable in some regions/countries due to regulatory restrictions.
- ⁵Saving clients' battery power requires clients to also support the 802.11ax Wi-Fi standard. Actual power reduction may vary as a result of network conditions, client limitations, and environmental factors.
- ⁶TP-Link EasyMesh-compatible products can network with other devices that use EasyMesh. Failed connections may be due to firmware conflicts of different vendors. The EasyMesh-compatible function is still being developed on some models and will be supported in subsequent software updates. This product is compatible with standardized EasyMesh technology but has not obtained the Wi-Fi EasyMeshTM certification.
- ⁷Wi-Fi generations represent the wireless standard IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax/be. All devices need to support 802.11 Wi-Fi protocols.
- ⁸Up to 4x Capacity refers to 4x increase in median throughput under dense environment compared to 11ac wave 2 range extender.
- Actual network speed may be limited by the rate of the product's Ethernet WAN or LAN port, the rate supported by the network cable, Internet service provider factors and other environmental conditions.

Works surprisingly well
I got this WiFi 7 extender to improve my Internet speeds in my basement, where I have my consoles setup. My main router is on the first floor and it had no problems connecting. With a gigabit switch connected to the extender, I'm able to get near gigabit speeds between the router and extender. No more slow speeds over wifi thanks to this device.
