Wi-Fi signal amplifier (repeater) TP-LINK RE650, white Review

The proverb "The miser pays twice" has been confirmed. I originally purchased the RE200 model from the same manufacturer. Led by the price, small size and neat design without protruding external antennas. Nerves during operation was enough for 2 weeks. Speed ​​\u200b\u200b"cut" godlessly, by 70 percent. Constant network failures, although short-lived (for 20-30 seconds), were very annoying when this happened 50 times a day. It was simply impossible to work quietly on the laptop. There were…

Before you buy this mastodon, you need to understand that this is perhaps one of the most powerful and expensive repeaters that can be found today. But it also has the appropriate capabilities: if you have a gigabit connection from a provider at home, a powerful 8022022ac router with 5 GHz support and all sorts of bells and whistles like MU-MIMO and Beamforming, then with this repeater you can broadcast all this beauty even further. A really convenient option, for example, for a country house…

In general, yes! I connected to two Wi-Fi routers: MikroTik hAP ac2 and MikroTik hAP AC (one in Hong Kong, one outside the city). Connected both through the application and through the site. The connection was successful, but the network signal was copied for exactly 5 minutes, then all consumers see the grid, but there is no Internet. I did a reset of the amplifier, reconfigured it again - it did not help. DO NOT TAKE THIS!

Yes, actually there is nothing to add: I did not regret the money, I am satisfied with the result. The tp-link-ovskaya program offers to spread the router and this repeater farther away, such as there is a margin in terms of coverage area. I'm thinking of expanding

MAC owners, be careful when buying. there is a potential problem with the inability to connect to this device at 5GHz. if your router broadcasts with a "bad" country code, then most likely you will encounter the problem of not connecting to 5GHz (your poppy will not see the network). it is treated simply (temporarily poke into the network with the correct country code). but you will have to do this all the time if you use other routers with a "bad" country code.

I had the task of improving reception in remote parts of an apartment with thick walls. The first impression was excellent: I plugged it into the network, entered a new network, indicated the data of the main point and that's it. Everything worked fine for a while, but then more and more often I began to notice that the extended network was disappearing (I had to get rid of the main network) and it became very noisy at my frequencies (44-48 channels), some devices began to work unstable, for…

Some pros: Covers with a confident signal 140m, even through a reinforced concrete floor. Got cons: At night it shines bright blue, which is not very good for sleep. Quite bulky.

If you don’t heavily load it works properly, it requires a reboot a couple of times a month due to failures with 5G, an ASUS modem, I don’t remember the model, with 4 antennas and for an expensive price, which has been working for the 3rd year without turning off the network, even when we leave for another week . Has some pros Easy to set up, pressed the button = synchronized with the modem. Cons: I was seduced by reviews, tried to find more expensive and more abruptly. It constantly falls off…

Bought to connect a TV and MFP wirelessly. The MFP does not support a 5 ghz wifi signal, and the TV works better on a wired signal. Different pros: A confident signal, the speed compared to the operation of a conventional router from MGTS has increased by a little more than 2 times. This is a one-room apartment. Has cons: Very bulky! It is necessary to divert 2 sockets on the extension cord, since nothing can be connected to the next one due to the massiveness of the device.

Really powerful repeater. I installed it two months ago in a private house - I did not regret that I had overpaid. If you have a connection to a provider above 100 Mbps and an AC-standard Wifi network broadcasts at home, then this device will be suitable. It supports all the main functions of top-end routers, so it will complement and expand a powerful wireless network well. The appearance is very original.

All control via mobile app. there are no disconnects. the indicator light can be set to turn off at a specific time or turn off altogether. Got pros: The advantage is that it is very easy to connect and set up. installed and forgot about it. There is a search function for the most suitable place for its location. Has cons: I didn’t like that it’s not a little big and protrudes from the outlet, you need to think in advance where it will be more convenient to place it. And over time, I noticed…

I still don’t understand why there are so many high ratings and laudatory reviews, it seems that this is the best solution on the market. And if so, it’s better not to bother with such devices at all, but to buy a solution that works through "sockets" The main question is that it has huge dimensions, "high" power, while in a private monolithic house it is installed on the ground floor. On the second floor, it is almost invisible to devices. But the situation will be exactly the same if a good…

The first setup via Tether went through instantly. From there, we check the firmware ate - it arrived, we roll, and immediately we lose access to the webmord and via Tether. Reboot will not help, you need to reset the settings to factory settings, with a paper clip. After that, we repeat the entire setup procedure again, and after that we enjoy uninterrupted communication in two bands throughout the apartment. Reduced power to medium. For the performance of some radio modules in client…

In general, a good device for its price, and if you also find yourself in a situation, like us, that you need the Internet in the bedroom, and you can’t stir up the wires, then this is a good replacement, albeit not cheap.
