Revainrating 5 out of 5

A good quality product, I rate this purchase perfectly.

I took it to ensure the stable operation of ChromeCast, connected to the TV in one room, while WiFi is distributed from another room and the signal was not enough - there were lags. Plus, in the 2 MHz band, the channels are clogged with a huge number of WiFi devices from the neighbors. As a result, I set up a ChromeCast connection to TP-LINK on a 5 MHz channel (I'm the only one in this band so far) - the speed and quality of the connection became stable. I distribute content from different…

Pros
  • Dual range
Cons
  • Didn't find

Overall it's not bad, but I expected more.

I killed two birds with one stone: 1) increased the WiFi coverage area, including 5Ghz, 2) connected the DVR to the WiFi network via the Ethernet port. In conjunction with the Zyxel Keenetic Extra router, it works stably. I got excited with the conclusions about stability. More precisely, there is stability. Once every two days, the repeater stops showing signs of life, the Web interface does not load, it is not visible in the WiFi network. Only power off/on helps. I plugged the repeater into

Pros
  • It has an Ethernet port, it can simultaneously work both in the adapter mode for a device connected via Ethernet, and in the repeater mode.
Cons
  • Once every two days, it steadily ceases to show signs of life.

My money is wasted, the product is terrible.

I bought it to provide a normal network for a device that can only work at 2.4 GHz, but it did not work out. As a result, I had to buy another device that does not have the described problems, but this one is just lying around. Has some pros: Theoretically, I should have configured without problems with the TP Link router, but since I have a different router, I could not evaluate this. Some cons: 1. The main function of the amplifier does not work with a non-native router - connect to the…

Disappointed with the purchase, useless products.

Instead of a repeater, they brought me a cosmetic mirror with illumination. The Positronics store hoped on the sly to foist poorly sorted goods. Drive the Positronics store with a filthy broom from the Market. Pros: Instead of a repeater, they brought me a cosmetic mirror with illumination. The Positronics store hoped on the sly to foist poorly sorted goods. Has cons: Instead of a repeater, they brought me a cosmetic mirror with illumination.

The right product for me, there were no problems.

In fact, two repeaters are configured: for network 2.4 and for network 5, each network is connected separately, as a result there will be 2 different networks. For myself, I haven’t figured out how to use the Ethernet port in the repeater, but perhaps in some conditions the “remote translator” mode will be convenient, for example, if the router does not distribute WiFi at all or the wire is very long (much further than WiFi)

Pros
  • This is not the first repeater in my household and not the first TP-Link, there are no problems with the tincture. It even has WPS, but personally I always have some problems with this technology, it’s easier for me to enter the password in the old fashioned way :-)
Cons
  • Either I didn’t understand how, or he doesn’t know how to work with dual-band networks: he didn’t let me make a 5GHz network from a dual-band network, the repeater network turned out to be only 2.4, when setting up 5k, the repeater doesn’t see the same network at all.

Beautiful appearance, took it out of the box, plugged it in, pressed the button on the router and amplifier, they all worked together. Because the router has only 2.4 hertz, on the amplifier it is possible to cut off the 2.4 signal too, so that it does not blow out, as a result, the signal comes from the amplifier at 5 hertz. The android application is very simple and at the same time convenient. I checked the speed, it still seemed to cut a little. From the router 5 meters to the amplifier…

Pros
  • Appearance, price, easy setup.
Cons
  • It heats up, slows down a bit.

It's impossible to use, don't waste your money.

Of course, when you read reviews, you want to believe that everything will be fine with you., And everyone else just has crooked hands. But no. Here's how it's set up. Like and the network lifts. But there are always some glitches: the network seemed to be raised, but it writes that "There is no Internet connection." At the same time, the main network is connected. Or 2.4 GHz raised, but 5 did not rise. Although even the main network is visible. Or it won't connect. At the same time, it would…

Pros
  • Design
Cons
  • Inability to use normally

An ideal product for any type of consumer.

Once I set it up, I don’t remember about the device: this is a sure sign that it does not make brains)) And this is the main thing for such a device. It works stably, does not fall off, caught a weak signal from the router in the room where the laptop (Macbook Pro) did not see the wi-fi network at all. Special thanks for the presence of two ranges: it really saves, especially in the evenings! For me, a cool device for the money. I would like, of course, a seamless coating, but these are devices

Pros
  • Appearance, easy setup out of the box, excellent range, two ranges, price. The same passwords for the main and extended networks. It does not fall off (reconnect without problems) if you pull it out of the socket or if the electricity is turned off.
Cons
  • The need to register in their system (I installed a mobile application) to set up an access point. But these are trifles: once set up - and forgotten.

Normal product, but wanted more for the money.

(2022) I didn’t chase speed. The main goal - to improve the coverage of their networks in the apartment - was achieved. However, at present (2022), buying a new RE200 is impractical - for the same (or even less) money, you can find Tenda AC5, which does not have the mentioned disadvantages. Pros: Easy installation and configuration, dual band operation, 8022022ac availability. Good technical support (for TP-Link in general). Has some cons: You cannot completely disable any of the ranges - the…

A great option for this money, one of the best offers.

I did not expect that he would cope with the task, I bought with thoughts “well, you never know”, but he did it perfectly. Situation: I rented an apartment, the walls in the house are VERY thick, the sockets are inconveniently located, the owner did not allow drilling, as a result, the router could only be installed on the stairwell, between it and the apartment there were two bends in the corridor, the signal was caught literally on a couple of square meters in the apartment, and that is weak,

Pros
  • A fairly powerful amplifier - it initially distributed an extremely weak signal throughout the 80m apartment, amplified it to a fully working state, although it didn’t catch at all without it, now the signal is stable and powerful. The device is small, easy to install and configure. Operates at a frequency of 5 GHz.
Cons
  • I didn’t notice, I completed my task 100% (but I’m not a particularly advanced user))

I have a ZYXEL router that transmits over a 2.4 GHz channel. I set up this miracle through a smartphone, there were no problems, the instructions are clear, the Internet began to transmit over two channels. 2.4GHz cuts the speed by 20-30% and at 5GHz it increased by 10% of what the router transmits. And if you don’t Vyozhivatsya That is, you can not buy an expensive two-band router, but buy this TP-LINK RE200 stray and the coverage area will be larger and 5GHz will appear. It performs its…

Pros
  • Dual range. And if you don't dig deep, it's perfect.
Cons
  • There is something wrong in my head. A little "stupid"

What you need, a cool purchase, I advise you.

Beautiful, although in my case it is under the ceiling and it is not visible. Good quality plastic. For such money, with 5ghz support, you can take it without hesitation. A very useful thing if you are not going to tinker with the settings. Plugged it into an outlet - and happiness. But if you are not using WPS (you don't have to), have a patch cord handy for initial setup.

Pros
  • Two-room apartment, ASUS RT-AC66U router. The original antennas were gnawed by cats. I bought three 5ghz for replacement in China. It didn't get any better. Through two concrete walls on a laptop 2 sticks out of 5. I hooked up the RE200 in the hallway, above the shield, and got 5 sticks for everything from phones and my wife's laptop to the terrible Android TV box H96 Pro, which is famous for its terrible Wi-Fi sensitivity. Of course, the price. 1800 for full coverage of the apartment is quite cheap. Saved from renting / buying a punch, so as not to put Ethernet everywhere.
Cons
  • I set up a patch cord via Ethernet (which was not included in the kit, although it should have been according to the instructions). Thank God I have patch cords. In theory, it connects without problems via WPS, but leaving WPS enabled means inviting guests to your place. WPS is, to put it mildly, insecure. The web interface is poor and constantly freezes. Somehow I stuck it to the router (2.4 and 5ghz), but if you go anywhere other than the installation wizard, the device thinks for several hours. Saves only hard reset, but the problem arises again. Bottom line: neither look at the settings, nor ate the firmware.

Good value for money, I recommend it.

If you put it in direct line of sight with the main router, it normally transmits a signal. For a room of 20 - 30 squares is enough. Got pros: The price corresponds to the quality of communication and speed. Ease of setup. Appearance. Ability to switch indicators to night mode. Mobile application for control and management. Different cons: There is no serious increase in communication, if at the installation point you conditionally have a speed of 40Mbit, then within the radius of the repeater,

It was necessary to remove the dead zone in the bedroom, which just fell into the place of "habitation" of my wife. As a result, in the far corner of the bedroom, where previously it was stable 0.00 according to the speed test, now 40.0+ is issued. Review written on the first day of use. If anything else comes up I'll edit it. Its pros: Completed the task for which it was bought. Raised the speed in the dead zone from zero to 40mbps Some cons: The behavior of wired clients behind a repeater is…

I've read negative reviews about the amplifier. So far, I have not noticed any bugs, jambs, and I have not been using it for long. I bought a second one to amplify the signal in a neighboring house. Different pros: What I needed to get was to distribute a Wi-Fi signal on the first floor from a modem installed on the 2nd floor. We can Huawei, I didn’t notice a conflict between devices. Its cons: I suffered a little with the initial setup, although it would seem that everything is simple. It…

I killed two birds with one stone with this purchase, increased the coverage of my home network (earlier on the balcony in the summer I didn’t get a signal through 3 walls, especially 5 GHz) and connected a door peephole via Lan, the speed is of course limited to 5 GHz, but this is better than the former 2.4 (and the vitukha through dragging the whole apartment was not an option). The device is not seamless, but I don’t need it either, since the router is also without this technology, it’s…

Pros
  • Two communication channels 2.4 and 5 GHz. Powerful signal. 1 Lan RJ45.
Cons
  • If you try to set it up without WPS, then the setting is a bit not obvious, the Tether application did not immediately find it. Luckily, the instructions are detailed.

The quality exceeds all expectations, I recommend to buy.

I took it to the dacha, where there is foil insulation between the rooms, and the router is on the second floor and the connection on the first floor, to put it mildly, is not very good. The repeater extended the network to almost the entire first floor (~30 sq. M). The only thing is, when I take it to another room to expand another network, I have to reset it and set it up again every time, i. E. did not find the functions of remembering networks, which he had already expanded before.

Pros
  • Ease of setup Expansion of the current network Create your own subnet
Cons
  • I’m not sure, but I didn’t find the function of remembering networks that have already been expanded before (more details in the comments)

I recommend to buy, the product is of high quality.

My 2.4GHz/5GHz router is in one room and I am in another. When watching high-definition video on a smartphone or tablet, playback delays very often occurred. In order to amplify the signal in the second room, this device was purchased. Also important was the ability of the amplifier to support a signal at 5 GHz (higher data rate). To get into the settings menu for the amplifier, I had to first connect it in the immediate vicinity of the router and then determine the IP address via DHCP, which…

Pros
  • Out of the box connectivity, 5 GHz signal forwarding through a reinforced concrete wall, modern harmonious design.
Cons
  • Medium power signal amplifier, heating during operation, touching the case with other plugs in the socket / splitter.

I put it between the router and the far room, the signal became a little better, no more. The games stopped being stupid, but YouTube is not stable. As far as customization goes, it's a complete hat. After the first setup, the web interface no longer enters, I entered both the address and ip - it's useless. Therefore, high speed mode cannot be enabled. Yes, and it will not work. Reconfigured several times - no use. The signal is also not impressive. The amplifier is less than 5 meters away, and

Pros
  • Didn't notice.
Cons
  • In the comments.

Matches the description completely, very satisfied.

I bought it to be able to connect to the mag 250 TV box via an ethernet cable, that is, I connected a repeater to the router via wifi, and the repeater via an ethernet cable to the TV box. It was not possible to achieve a permanent image, as in support from one of the Internet providers it was said that multicast in this version is not possible. And as a repeater - it is really excellent.

Pros
  • Jump speed 59.6 download 59.7 ping 0, install no more than 5 s unpacking. The indication can be turned off.
Cons
  • No
