Review on Asus RP-N12 N300 WLAN Repeater 🔁 802.11 B/G/N - Boost Your Wireless Range! by Jnis Zels ᠌

I bought to cover the back room, because. tablet/smartphone caught there is not stable (but caught). I put it in the same room, and not somewhere "in the middle". The calculation was that with two remote antennas, this repeater will catch the signal from the router better than mobile devices with wretched antennas. No - the same unstable reception. And as a result, I switched to the mode of a regular access point and connected it with a wire (fortunately, he was there). Further. It turned out that the built-in power supply squeaks / hisses quite loudly (well, whoever heard how the chokes squeak knows). You can hear very well at night. I had to open it (they forgot about the guarantee right away) in order to fill in the power board (it is there separately) with hot glue. Upon opening, it turned out that both boards were not washed from the flux, and the screen was not soldered on the signal board (although there is a place and tinning for it). It's just not worthy of Asus [facepalm]. It would be better to buy a similar TP-Link, it would be twice cheaper and most likely better quality.
