About TP-Link AC1900 WiFi Extender (RE550)
Overall Feedback:
85% positive
83% found it compatible with various devices, while 17% had issues
I experienced a significant improvement in internet speed from 1-2mbps to 50-80mbps in a distant room with this repeater.
I was able to set up a Ring camera on the back balcony and connect a video doorbell even though the router is located on the 4th floor. The device worked really well.
The product doesn't provide any signal and is transparent to the Wi-Fi signal.
83% praised the stable connections
The repeater worked great with my security camera and never lost internet connection. The wifi was never strong enough to connect to my phone or laptop consistently.
82% appreciated the easy setup, yet 18% struggled
I set up the repeater using the Tether App and it took less than 5 minutes.
Setting up the TP-Link AC1900 WiFi Extender (RE550) took me about 15 minutes with clear and precise directions.
The product seemed simple to set up but it doesn't provide any Wi-Fi signal and is difficult to understand.
67% liked the power consumption, whereas 33% didn't
The device has worked wonderfully so far.
I did not mention anything specific about the power consumption of the repeater.
85% appreciated the range extension feature
This repeater has extended my internet connection range and improved the speed from 1-2mbps to 50-80mbps in a distant room.
82% highlighted the signal strength indicator
I faced signal strength issues with my router and wifi extenders. After reading about TP Link Mesh Wifi, I bought one for almost 80 bucks. I was surprised to see that it worked and delivered the same speed as my Starlink router in the next area of the house.
86% liked the high-speed performance
After switching to TP AC1900 Wifi Extender, I have experienced a significant improvement in speed performance. My internet connection speed has increased from 30-35mbps to 108-112mbps.
In a distant room that was getting barely 1-2mbps from the native ASUS router, I achieved a speed of 50-80mbps with this repeater.
I tried placing the extender outside the house and found that it worked at 19 feet away with just air in-between.
