Review on Wi-Fi signal amplifier (repeater) TP-LINK TL-WA860RE, white by Wiktor Wojciechowski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best thing for the money, glad I did it.

And as a general rule, it is best to leave all of the settings as they were initially configured to be. Especially the DCHP server should be set to "auto" the majority of the time; otherwise, you won't be able to access the settings over WiFi when the mother network is shut off; instead, you will need to use a wire or do a reset. On the stock firmware of the PS c D-Link DIR-320 (A2 and B1), we did not observe any difficulties. while using PPS with a low signal, the speed is reduced by one-half (while the red indication is active). The only thing that sets it apart from the TP-LINK TL-WA855RE is the socket, which is the only change.

Pros
  • It has a large range and is able to pick up a weak signal quite effectively (assuming it is compatible with your router; for more information, check the drawbacks). If there is no way to extend copper, then using this alternative makes perfect sense. Two of his antennas actually have antennae, rather than merely being decorated with a piece of plastic to give the appearance of solidity. Software that is both user-friendly and capable of configuring the phone.
Cons
  • This WiFi router is not compatible with all others: When you remove this extender from the power supply, the Keenetic 4G (1st generation NDMS v22022.C0 (KN-1210)) will continually enter a dead freeze state. That is to say, there is the potential for issues during power outages. Because the extender itself is assigned an IP address, in contrast to access points, and all devices passing through it change their MAC address (in this scenario, the first part of the address is written to the router from the extender, and the second part is written from the device itself), there is some routing curvature that occurs. Connecting the extension to the guest network is the recommended solution. It did not begin with the Chinese GW GT835, though; the router does not perceive it in any way, and when it is connected to the network, it kicks the device from the network after a few seconds. I was unable to come up with a solution. In general, you should look at the particular model of the router that you have and give it a try. It is worth it.
