Really pleased with this product.
My house is a bit on the long narrow side with a solid brick wall somewhere in between. With the router at the back of the house (an Apple airport) I have been experiencing a drop in WiFi towards the front of the house.
It was really easy to set up. Plug it in to a power point near the main router, download the TP tether app (I am using iOS) and get them connected.
Once all done, relocate the extender in a plug closer to where you need the boost but still in good range and turn on. That’s it! I plugged it in on my first floor landing and it has shown a marked improvement to the WiFi in the front of my house.
I have been getting up to 60mbps through it, my Apple TV device that had been struggling with movie streaming no works a treat!
Couple of things to note. It sets up a delegate SSID rather than Just extending the existing but once. Device is logged in and password is remembered then no big issue. Even easier for static devices.
The unit itself isn’t…

Setup was tricky as WPS didn’t work on our router (other devices have done, so it seems to be the extender). Manual set up using a web browser wasn’t much better, as it was a struggle to get any device to connect to its own network (if we hadn’t been fairly tech savvy it would have appeared to just not work out of the box. When we did pair it to our network, no device could connect to it, citing an IP config error. We reset the device, and tried giving it a fixed IP, putting it in the DMZ etc with no luck. Eventually tried to contact TP link for an assist. Wasn’t able to get any email replies. An online forum post (hardly reliable but we had no official troubleshooting support) suggested we try letting the extender handle DHCP requests by itself (and turn them off at the router). This kicked all devices off the extender, and none could then connect (IP config issues again). We rebooted it and still had no luck. Returned to Amazon. If you’re a network engineer I am sure you can get…

Bought this to extend wifi range to the rear of the house. Ideally I wanted was to have the same wifi network name (SSID) so that you could transfer seamlessly between one and the other. (known as “mesh”.)
However, although this product claims to have that capability, and it says proudly on the packaging “Compatible with all routers!” it turns out (in the instructions small print) that the “mesh” capability is dependent on your main router also being compatible with mesh. Mine isn’t.
Not this product’s fault I suppose, but I think the advertising is a little misleading about its capabilities.
Nevertheless it works well enough to create a further wifi network (with _EXT suffix) which achieves the aim of providing wifi coverage at the rear of the house and in the back garden.

The worst purchase I’ve ever made. I’ve wasted endless hours trying to figure the connection problems out to absolutely no avail. Yes the set up is easy using the app BUT the connection is about as reliable as a one armed firefighter with no legs. I bought this to extend my wifi out to my ring cameras and it worked for a while until I realised the camera hadn’t actually been connected for a day. I moved the socket upstairs, downstairs, back upstairs, back downstairs and voila, we have a connection……..2 hours later, camera is as much use as a chocolate fireguard when connected to this monstrosity of an extender. I’ve been into advanced settings on the extender and the router and nothing can fix this. Even trying to connect to the extenders wifi with my phone so you can then access the extenders settings is futile……you’ll just be met with a constant ‘cannot obtain IP address’ over and over again……try again 5 minutes later and it works fine!! Aaaaagh!! Just when you have…
