Works as advertised
Quick and simple wireless installation using the tplink tether app. It truly boosts the signal (both 2.4 and 5) in the area where you plug it in. You can unplug and move it and don't need to set up over again. Works flawlessly as advertised. I'm very happy with the product.

So good I bought another one!
I live in an old house built in the forties that has a lot of lathe and plaster walls making dead spots prevalent all over the house. When you’re near the modem/router we get crazy good speed but as soon as you go down a hallway you start to drop off precipitously. I bought one of these range extenders as a shot in the dark to extend our wifi coverage to the backyard for these nice Ohio summer days on the iPad watching our Guardians play. The range extender worked so well I bought another one to further our household coverage!The range extender is slightly on the larger side as compared to an older extender I bought years ago that really didn’t work. This one also has two antennae that stick out and swivel up and down. I guess this is a nice feature to have but I wish there was a way to tell how your signal strength was being affected by a slight movement up or down of the antennae. Otherwise I just leave one pointed straight up and the other slightly angled at about 45º in the hopes this works best.Normally I’m opposed to downloading yet another app with the newest piece of hardware I buy but I did download Tether, the associated app with this device. To my surprise the app is extremely intuitive and well laid out and very user friendly. The app makes setting up the device extremely easy. Of note, when I did purchase the second extender it was just as easy to add the second one to the app. The app is a big reason I purchased another of the same extender rather than try another brand. Super easy to use and keeps things nice and tidy on the phone.The hardware/software combination has a ton of settings that I’m sure more advanced users will revel in but I was able to set up the extenders in almost no time flat and I was up and running. My main modem/router has the capability to enable OneMesh software as does these extenders but I chose not to enable this feature. A big problem I have with the OneMesh feature is that all the smart devices in the house (of which we have about 40) all seem to float on different connection points and if the phone isn’t on the same connection point the devices often don’t work correctly. I’ve had no issues with connection, speed, or signal strength since purchasing these two range extenders for the house.I am truly pleased with this TP-Link range extender product and couldn’t be happier with the results. I can now freely go about the house and keep a solid connection and I can sit about 100’ from the house and stream content on my iPad in the backyard now. Couldn’t recommend more highly. I do hope this review was helpful for you in some way. Cheers!

Works as advertised, easy setup
Perfect. Works well. Let’s multiple users access WiFi and extends my service to rest of house. Was annoying before - now I have WiFi service on opposite side of house from modem/router. Very pleased with this.

Great item
Works well and easy to set up. We even had to switch out our modem and router and setting it up a 2nd time was a breeze.Extends wifi to remainder of house and part of yard.Does seem to disconnect off and on a couple times throughout the day but nothing major.Huge lifesaver due to working from home

Must be configured wirelessly without Ethernet cable plugged in!
In my situation, which can’t be the only one, I wanted to extend my signal to another room in my shop. The shop is roughly 80x100 with steel walls deciding the sections.The problem is my main WiFi router wouldn’t get any signal going through the walls to the other room. Even though they were 20ft and 50ft away respectively.So I bought this to hardwire an Ethernet cable from my router to this extender to use the same network signal and essentially have a another WiFi emitting device in another room on the other side of a steel wall to get signal.The problem that you must be aware of is there is absolutely no way to set this up in access point mode UNTIL you have wirelessly connected to your network. I figured I could go into the initial setup and change modes immediately before going through the entire setup process, a process that ONLY works if your extender can connect to your wireless router, connect to it, finalize its settings, reboot to save them, then go back into your setup and finally be able to change modes to “access point” mode.So first point of contention, the device will NOT finish setup (errors and times out) if you have an active ethernet cable attached to it. In my case, that was the signal from one of the lan ports of my router plugging into this extender (remember, no signal through steel walls).So easy enough fix. Simple set the device up next to your existing router, then after finalizing setup, rebooting, changing to AP mode, moving router to its new location, and plugging in Ethernet cable, it works fine.My advice would be to have your team update the drivers / setup to immediately ask, as in the 1st step, the mode someone will be using this device. That would save tons of time and headache as I’m sure many people would use this device hardwired from a long lan port run off their router like I am.After that, seems to work fine and exactly what I was looking for.Just be aware the install instructions don’t exactly give you this info. And above all, if you plan on using the Ethernet port on the extender, DO NOT plug anything into it until AFTER your setup has completed and finalized. I had to do 2 hard resets of the device before I figured out that was what was stopping me from the initial setup as well.Just an FYI….

I wish I had returned it when I had the chance!
Useless! Seriously, our house is 35 x35 square and our wifi company installed their equipment almost in a corner of the house. We have 2 floors + a finished 3rd floor on the opposite side of the house from the router. The service reaches the 2nd and 3rd fl on the opposite side, but usually with only 1 bar. A few times a week it needs a little help, so this product seemed like it would do the trick. WRONG.It is a pain in the butt to set up, having a very hard time connecting to the main router. Then it had trouble staying connected if I moved it any meaningful distance. It took far too long to get the signal to travel as far as the main router. Eventually, I got it to maybe beef the coverage up to 2 bars- but it was short-lived and hasn't been recaptured since. It is literally 70% of the distance from the main router to where I need to improve coverage and the main router has better coverage 95% of the time. Total waste of money.
