Wi-Fi signal amplifier (repeater) TP-LINK RE220, white Review

Its pros: The phone automatically switches which network catches better (wifi or repeater). It does its job for me. The speed is not reduced at all ! (checked with different programs) The setting is fast 1 minute. I also connected it to the TV set with a cable, it was with smart TV but without wifi (now with WiFi). In a word, two birds with one stone. Has cons: Not very good range. No better than Wi-Fi (I have the cheapest asus). In the room where the dead zone copes, in others the phone…

Of course, it cannot be called a signal amplifier, although in the original it sounds like a repeater, not an amplifier, which more accurately reflects its function. I set it up without problems through the application and where the speed was 6.5 Mbps over the air, it became using a 39 repeater, which allowed the child to work calmly on the laptop.

A special application is downloaded in which it is easy to configure the device or connect other devices of this company. Through the application, everything is configured quickly and without problems.

I plugged it into the outlet, connected it through the application, after 2 minutes I enjoyed wi-fi 5GHz. The design is cool, the LEDs do not hit the eyes at night.

I took it for an apartment, the walls are thick and the signal from the router installed in the back room was not transmitted to the kitchen. Connected through the previously installed application, by adding a new device. Now the speed of the Internet "flies" throughout the apartment.

My apartment looks at all four cardinal directions with windows, and even winds like a snake, so that on one pole the router is on the other repeater. Mesh is also available, but not practical.

It works great, the wire is connected, it distributes the Internet in another place, I live in the house and now there is wifi on the entire plot of 7 acres, there are 3 levels of effort, I have it on the second

Turned on, connected and working, what else is required of him. It has been observed that the 2.4 GHz channel is used to "pump" into the 5 GHz band, increasing throughput. Pros below: Works well, up to 50 Mbps on 2.4 GHz and up to 100 Mbps on 5 GHz (100 Mbps maximum channel width). Different cons: With routers from other companies, it creates additional subnets, well, this is not a minus, but rather a feature. Heats up slightly.

Easy to set up through your own application, high-quality stable signal. Oakkidaet in an apartment of 74 square meters to all points, through all walls. For 1.5 K I consider it a good buy

The manufacturer is cheating customers! it is not possible to correctly create a MESH network with this amplifier, since there is no support for 8022022 k / v /, which means painfully long switching between the router's network and the network of this miracle MESH amplifier !

Settings: high-speed connection, manual mode. It takes 5GHz from the router and distributes it in the basement, where there is a cinema and a bunch of smart home devices at 2.4GHz. The result is more than positive.

In general, a very good repeater by type: put it in and forget it, but if you want finer settings, then look for another one. The red price of such a piece of iron is 1200, no more. If you still decide to take it, then I advise you to name the distributed points in the same way as the points of the main router and do not select the operating modes on the repeater, then you will get one (if you have only 2.4G) or two (if you have 2.4G and 5G on the main router) of the access point, then put it…

I took it as an ethernet wi fi amplifier, because the router is far away in the corridor. Before that, I used a cheap (700r) amplifier that is halfway between the router and the main consumers and just catches and boosts the wi fi network. It works well but I would like even better. Problems began almost immediately - right from the installation. The mobile application sees the network that the device creates, but the Tether application itself does not find the device. I connected the second…

Different pros: It performs its functions perfectly, low latency, there is a port for a wired connection, easy setup. Has cons: It heats up to 40 degrees during operation, but this does not affect it in any way

And the logic of marketing, as it turned out, is simple. For those who need 5G for show, and who don't need nafg. On this device, you can’t, like this, take a 5G network, and “strengthen” it, make it a clone, and so on. But you can only take it and convert it to 2.4 with a 2-fold speed drop to a maximum of 50 megabits. For those who have 2.4 Lego people can make 5G out of it, and then without any problems, the device gives us the same 50 megabits, but with the inscription of the 5G network. It…

With active use by 3-4 devices, it periodically falls into a stupor, it helps to disconnect from the outlet and turn it on after 5-10 seconds.

I took it as a signal amplifier, since the router is not in the most convenient place. Cuts speed in half. As for the expansion of the zone, I also argue. Perhaps in direct line of sight on the window and will cover the area, but I have it in a socket at the bottom of the wall of the room. So, from this side of the wall on Singhal Street, there is a little to the side of 5 meters, it is no longer there. Too bad, I was hoping for more. Next time I will carefully read the reviews and, if…

Pros: Works well, everything suits me. From the router I got what I expected. Easy to use, compact and convenient. Has cons: There were no big difficulties in setting up the router, I had to seek advice from the Internet provider. But quickly all problems were solved by phone.

In a private house in the son's room on the second floor, wi-fi from the router "got" bad and unstable. The son constantly complained about the bad signal. The master arrived, took measurements and said that only a wired connection to the room would save. I still read the reviews, took a chance and bought this amplifier. I must say, the problem is almost solved. Complaints from the son stopped. I can't tell you the exact numbers, I didn't measure them. But toys on the computer now work))

Pros below: I quickly connected to the main router, convenient setup through the application, I mainly work through it (a couple of phones + a laptop), it works fine. Has some cons: When I connect through it, for some reason, apple services are junk (it may not find a firmware ate, not download iCloud, etc.), I still don’t understand why.
