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

My router is located at one end of the apartment. The repeater was placed in the line of sight of the router in the center of the apartment. As a result, almost the entire apartment was covered with a repeater network. I didn’t measure the speed, but you can walk around the entire apartment, watching videos on YouTube, without any problems. I am satisfied. Pros: - compact and discreet design; - dim indicators; - the presence of an outlet; - if you set a network name that matches the SSID of the router's network, then they are combined and only one remains in the list of networks. - you can work with the MAC filter on the router. Add the MAC address of the repeater to the list of the router and additionally write the MAC addresses of the devices connected through the repeater again, changing the first six characters of the MAC address of the device to the characters from the MAC address of the repeater. Everything will work. Cons below: - WPS with my router (d-link dir300) did not work, but the setup through the site is simple - all the parameters of my network are copied with one button, I didn’t have to manually enter anything; - slightly squeaks during operation. If it hangs within a radius of 1m from the workplace, then in silence this annoying squeak will be noticeable. If you hang it in the office or under the table, or next to the computer, you won't hear it. - go from the computer to the settings of the repeater (19220228.0.254) for some reason, I can only immediately after turning it on. In other cases, the page does not open. - the repeater shows unstable connection with the router - occasionally the green indicator turns red. Communication is normal.
