Review on Enhance Your WiFi Range with TP-Link TL-WPA4220KIT 300Mbps AV500 Powerline WiFi Extender Start Kit by Stanislaw Mielicki ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The goods are normal, money is not wasted!

Three-room apartment, so there are blind spots, especially the kitchen. To eliminate them, and bought. "Plug in and use" cord connection. With WiFi had to suffer. "Alien", i. E. home WiFi, as the instruction promises, does not pick up on the fly, I had to install the utility from the kit and configure the network (SSID, IP) manually. Since then, as soon as necessary, you take out the subjects, plug the first one into the socket next to the router, the power cord, and in the kitchen you just plug it into the socket and here it is. True, since the laptop also catches the remnants of the "parent" network, and connects to it all the time, although it catches nothing, you have to select the network manually. If I plan large downloads, then to speed up the process, I also plug a network cable into the second subject and everything just flies. The reason for connecting via cable is not a problem in the quality of the device, but in the fact that with 12 transmission channels, up to 26 WiFi networks are detected during peak hours. Therefore, it turns out as in the program of V. Solovyov: "everyone is bad and everyone is yelling." Before purchasing, make sure that the outlets you want to connect the device to are on the same mains. In ordinary (standard) apartments, there is only one network, this can be checked by an electric meter, it is usually one. But it will not work to transmit a signal over an electric cable to another apartment, modern meters filter the frequency market. I recommend to buy!

Pros
  • 1. Ease of organizing a local network on the scale of an apartment, house or office. 2. Stable operation 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year :) 3. Verified manufacturer. 4. Scalability.
Cons
  • WiFi is not so easy. We must dance with a tambourine. You cannot disable SSID broadcast.
