Description

Description

The WiFi Extender from TP-LINK broadcasts signal on two frequencies. It offers higher speeds compared to single-band extenders and allows connection of more devices.

The 2.4Ghz frequency is the most common and has a large range. The 5Ghz provides higher speed than the 2.4Ghz but is more sensitive to obstacles (e.g. walls) that reduce its range. This difference, as well as its more limited use, helps to have less interference from other networks. The repeater can provide up to 750Mbps in total to the devices connected to it. In practice, the actual speed shared with the devices is closer to 150Mbps. For example, a high-resolution 4K movie requires about 25Mbps. The speed that each connected device will have depends on the distance, obstacles, how many other devices are connected, how many other networks exist in the same area, etc. It is Wi-Fi 5 generation, the most common Wi-Fi standard, which can meet the needs of most users at present. There is now also the next generation Wi-Fi 6, which offers the ability to connect many more devices to serve the increasingly growing smart devices in a home.

    This review is about the network version: v4

    It does not have such a good range for signal extension. In a 6-meter hallway, it does not catch satisfactorily. Its speed plays around 80% of that of the router. It has a major issue of drops. For a few seconds (usually 10), you have no internet at all on the device. I do not recommend it for a user who needs a reliable connection. For simple use on mobile devices, it is okay. Easy installation, but few settings.

    This review is about the network version: v4

    It gives worse signal than the router at 2.4GHz, even though it is half the distance from the blind spot. In a 70sqm house, it has line of sight with the router and cannot amplify the signal to pass through a wall. The 5GHz band is not even worth considering. I thought I would try to make my life easier, but unfortunately it was a waste of money.

    This review is about the network version: v4

    Well, this particular product is not worth it at all for gaming, it is only good for general internet use. After a few days, it starts losing internet connection for about 20 seconds. If you want a good amplifier that can handle gaming and everything else, you should spend at least 50 euros. If you're using it to watch TikTok, Netflix, Instagram, etc., it's good and can handle many devices, it just loses signal for 20 seconds very rarely, at least in the first few months. After that, it may lose signal frequently and for longer periods of time
