TP-Link AC1200 WiFi Extender - 1.2Gbps Home Signal Booster, Dual Band 5GHz/2.4GHz, Up to 1600 Sq.ft and 32 Devices, EasyMesh Compatible, One Ethernet Port (RE315)

We haven't been getting a good WIFI signal in our attached garage and I finally decided to do something about it. I haven't studied this stuff at all, so I'm not very knowledgeable. I just wanted an inexpensive fix for now because we are on the verge of getting fiber optic, and I will probably do some sort of mesh system at that time. I am really happy with this TP-Link extender because it was inexpensive, easy to set up (I used the app, but you don't have to), and it really did the trick for getting a strong signal in the garage! The extender has it's own network, and I wasn't sure if I would have to go and select that network each time I used it or not, but I don't. My phone or device will just automatically connect to either the router or the extender (probably based on signal strength). It works sort of like a mesh in that way, but I'm sure it is slower to switch over than the mesh, but still not too bad. We live in a rural area without good cell phone connection and really rely on WIFI calling, so now when I am working in the garage I don't have to worry. The signal goes well beyond the garage, so the range is very good for our needs.

I purchased these to extend my home's Wi-Fi to a detached garage located about 40 feet from the house. My setup uses one unit mounted on the outside wall of the house and the other positioned inside the garage behind a window. There is almost a clear line of sight between them, with only a few tree branches in the way. In my installation, I saw about a 20% reduction in internet speed compared to the main router. Even with that loss, the connection is still more than fast enough for streaming music and video, browsing the internet, downloading manuals, and other everyday tasks in the garage. Setup was straightforward, and once configured the connection has been stable and reliable. Pros: Easy to set up Reliable connection Good range for detached buildings More than enough bandwidth for streaming and general internet use Cons: Some reduction in speed is expected when extending the network Bottom line: If you need to extend Wi-Fi to a detached garage, workshop, or similar outbuilding, this extender performed well in my installation. While there is some loss in speed, the tradeoff is well worth it for the added coverage and dependable connection.

I am extremely happy with this TP-Link WiFi extender. Setting it up was incredibly easy and straightforward—it connected to my router almost instantly, and the smart signal indicator light made it simple to find the absolute perfect spot to plug it in. Performance-wise, it completely eliminated the dead zones in my house. The dual-band speeds are fast and reliable, and it handles multiple connected devices simultaneously without any lagging or dropped connections. I also love that it has an Ethernet port for a stable wired connection where needed, and the EasyMesh compatibility is a huge plus. If you need a hassle-free way to expand your home network coverage, this is a fantastic choice. Highly recommend!

Easy to set up and get started with. Seems to work really well for extending wifi to other rooms and help a tv stay connected, also helps with cameras but there have been small lapses. I would still recommend.

This TP-Link AC1200 WiFi Extender is what I needed to boost the weak wifi signal arriving at my desktop computer at the opposite diagonal of my single story home. I attempted this upgrade months ago, but with a different brand expander that didn't work at all, and one of the antennas broke off in my hands during my efforts to try to make it work. This TPLink unit worked great out of the box. Connecting with the TPLink Tether app was smoother than anticipated. Construction of this wifi extender is very solid. Side by side comparisons of the distant and local extender signals verified the increased signal strength and return to a higher internet speed as provided by Spectrum.

It's just so easy to set up! I have worked in IT for over 20 years. This thing was set up and working in about 45 seconds, I never even had to go into a config page or anything , pushed the wps button on router and device and bam, I had a wired port ready to plug in a dumb switch and plug in my network printer . I do have one complaint, it plugs into the wall out let and is not at all surge protector friendly and it blocks the out let on the wall. It's honestly a kind of stupid design. But damn does it work well

This item was reasonably priced and had good reviews. The setup instructions were average (not bad; not great). I hated having to setup an account with TapoLink for yet another tech device to use in my home. The actual setup was fairly easy but it took trying 8 different locations in the house to get the "oh so wonderful coverage" promised in the write up of this WiFi extender. [Please read that statement as highly sarcastic. It's not wonderful]. Basically I'm getting only an additional 15ft extension to a security camera outside. Not the exaggerated sq ft coverage mentioned in the product write up. There is no brick or steel blocking the signal. But I will concede that my IP is also unreliable. Can you say ComCast? Anyway, right now after a few hours the camera is receiving a 100% WiFi signal after struggling to get 35% from a router only 30 ft away. More and more I find technology to be not what it's cracked up to be. But this did correct a problem. Unfortunately I won't know if the second camera will get coverage once I install that because after trying 8 locations for the extender it isn't in a location I find efficient. But we will see. Let you know later. Doubt I will give this product more than 4 stars. It isn't a 5 star product imo.

I bought this Wi-Fi extender because I was setting up a small home office in one of our rooms, and the Wi-Fi signal wasn't strong enough for work. After installing it, the difference was noticeable right away. The connection is now much more stable, and I have the reliable internet I need to work without interruptions. It was easy to set up, and it maintains a strong signal even farther from the main router. If you have a room with weak Wi-Fi and need a more reliable connection for work, studying, or video calls, I definitely recommend it.

Setting up the extender is a breeze, and the reception has improved notably. I really like the one-mesh technology, eliminating the need to change networks at home.

Gostei mt do produto, veio de Miami- Florida-USA Instalei na parede da área para melhor propagação do sinal para as câmeras instaladas fora de casa, atendeu mt bem as expectativas. Recomendo, produto de 1*

Got better connections

A bit compliocated to setup but, 3 weeks in ,worked 24/24.Very happy with it. Ethernet is only 100mbit(about 12 mb/s) but now my internet is quality. Would recommend again.

Very happy with my purchase. What i like about this wifi extender is that you can change the passwords within the Tether app, something you cant do with the cheaper models. Would buy again if required
