Got this from a friend, all it cost me was a couple of beer's, was brand new - setup was a breeze and has extended my WiFi connection 100% very pleased with this but the price in Argos for this item is £17 and goes up to £25+. I was lucky as my friend works in a place that sells these types of items, but I do highly recommend getting one if you are having WiFi connectivity issues.

Funny you mentioned the power line kit, I have both products - I configured the WiFi Extender in Access Point mode, plugged it into the power line plug via ethernet and gave it a new SSID - works like a charm in my studio. It's still an extension of my home network but all our devices see it as a different WiFi

@theTechNotice 4 года назад

YEAH, I tried that, but it was not the same circuit so didn't work 😭

@GundamTech 6 лет назад

instead of using WPS, do the manual method by accessing the repeater management page (manual or google for ip, default user and pass should be both admin), then make sure change the SSID of the repeaer , do NOT clone ur main router's SSID, the easy method just clones the SSID, and ur PC might still try to connect to old network, if you change the SSID of the repeater, then you can test to make sure that your are indeed connected to the repeater

I have moved into a studio with a remotely managed MESH WiFi system and to connect any peripherals, I need to supply the company with the MAC address ofb anything I want to connect (apart from my computer and phone). I need to connect my WiFi capable kiln (via WPS to the app) and my Hue Bridge to a router via ethernet cable, but the router in my studio, which doesn't have an ethernet port or a WPS button and is hardwired. Is this extender still an option, or do I need to buy a managed access point and if so, do you have any recommendations for one that won't destroy my bank account? Thank you very much in advance for your consideration of my request.

@leejenkinson5521 Год назад

remember when you use a repeater it transmits and repeats the same signal, so a lot of the time it will extend the signal and decrease the speed. You were actually quite lucky in you got a slight increase in data speed which is rare with most repeaters. These type work over Wi-Fi and as a repeater work entirely different from the ones that transmit the signal through the house wiring. I have tried both, and each has pros and cons, I personally like these for improving dead spots around the house, but for gaming and RU-vid streaming you might want to try an extender that works by transmitting through the household wiring, or their HD/4K extender upgrades ;) Nice video by the way.

I just got one (ver. 7.0) - and finished setting it up. The setup created an extra network, xxxxx_ext (xxxxx being the name of my 2.4 network) - and I suppose that's the network one should connect to in order to get the better performance. You didn't mention anything about this issue - why? This would eventually mean that the network name on cameras, door bells, AppleTV, Smart-TV etc. should be changed as well if a better performance is wanted on them?

Are any 'Universal Wi-Fi Range Extenders' useful for improving cell phone signals/transmissions/receptions?

@CoroaEntertainment 4 года назад

I think your phone is still connected to the original (weaker) wireless signal, which means it's now sharing the connection with that new adapter, hence the drop in speed you saw when doing the speed test again. Supposedly Android devices have a problem auto switching to a new/stronger wifi connection if there's one available (especially if the SSID has the same/similar name, which it would since you used the WPS button to link the adapter). You need to manually disconnect your phone's wifi connection from the old/weaker wireless signal, then manually connect it to the new signal. Make sure you have auto connect turned off when you do this, or else it will try to reconnect to the old wireless signal it has saved already.

@andrewcarter7866 Год назад

So...did you actually disconnect from the WIFI connection to your router and connect to the wifi connection provided by the TP-Link? I don't think you did...unless you did it off-camera. I've had two of these and they are very good, and after everyone started working from home I recommended them to a couple friends that had weak wifi and they're also very happy with the improvement.

To check it really is making a difference you should do a back check to see the slight increase wasn't a coincidence. To do this you unplug the extender to check if it goes back down to 11mb/s. If it doesn't then the 13 was just coincidence.

@rodfulford4306 4 года назад

My wifi speed is 31 in most areas in house but drops in my garden. The extender improves the range but the speed at best is 21. A speed test on the ethernet port is good at 30, so the extender loses 10 wherever it is placed in or outdoors. I assumed it was faulty and returned it to Amazon but perhaps thats the best it can do. I wonder if other makes are better, anybody know?

@leejenkinson5521 Год назад

that was normal, repeaters generally have lower data transfers as they transmit and share on the same signal. Some good helpful guides online explain this, just the technology and how it operates, you have to assess whether the trade-off is worth it (between extending the range and losing some speed on this particular product). Their powerline products that transmit through the house wiring do not have as great a loss.

Always remember 99% of these devises can get through one wall only, so map your usage. Two things, 1. Use manual setup, method 2, connect to the new SSID 2. Place it close to the dead zone (if your office is on the 3rd floor place it there and also try it on the 2nd floor). This extender is awesome, with my slow 100 MbPS (it only has 2.4 GHz which is upto 300 MbPS), but if you are on a higher speed network you need something else.

Wireless extenders suck by nature since they're just trying to boost signals, and it really depends on how strong/weak that signal is. Just get a AV600 ethernet over powerline. Then plug it directly into your computer or into a secondary router that is set up as a wireless access point.

most likely not, because your problem seems to be the internet speed rather than range, if a lot of people are using it, the speed gets divided between all these people.
