I have used a fair few signal repeaters over the years and also have used old routers as repeaters. Recently I was lucky enough to get fibre to the premises broadband from a small supplier. This in theory gives be 300MBS upload and download. However it soon became apparent that the router supplied had pretty poor wi-fi capabilities and the signal was rather weak in the lounge. I decided to try one of these range extenders,It suits my purpose perfectly. Very easy to set up and I cant see anyone having a problem. WPS pairing worked but I then changed the SSID to match the rest of the network which worked well as roaming devices tend to pair to the strongest signal. The advice with this extender was to place it halfway between the router and the problem area. This is logical enough but I was able to place the device behind the TV in the lounge (blue light on the device shows this placement is fine) which meant I could use the ethernet socket for my PVR. This all works perfectly. Unlike previous extenders I have used this one is very stable and I have not had to reboot the device yet.Its important to realise that because of the way repeaters work you will not get the same speed as you would next to the router. There are endless clear explanations for this on the internet but in simple terms the repeater has to collect the signal and then pass it on so you might in theory half the bandwidth. So if your actual internet speed from the provider is slow this may not be the solution you are hoping for. My upload/download (just checked) is about 140 MB from the 300. What you will get though if the device is placed correctly is a very strong signal strength, exactly what wifi dongles such as the firestick require.Based on my experience of ease of setup, usefulness and importantly stability its five stars all the way from me.

This is amazing. The quality of this item is really good. The connectivity was really easy and straightforward to set up with my current broadband provider and routers. The range seems to be absolutely perfect. We changed over to virgin media just over a year ago and unfortunately we missed the renewal which I would’ve changed because virgin media since having it have been an absolute nightmare in my house. We have always struggled to get a good signal in my children’s bedrooms at the back of the house and slightly the kitchen at the bottom back of the house we are also all people that play consoles mainly of an evening and we were forever dropping out because we just couldn’t play at the same time even though I was playing for the bigger package we had two boosters already one at the top of my stairs and one downstairs from virgin media which did help a little bit but still done absolutely nothing for upstairs in my children’s room at the back of the house after months and months and months of trying to talk to someone at virgin media. I was getting nowhere with this so I decided to try and buy a booster or a mesh booster or something just to try and help what we were paying for I came across this one looked at the reviews and also saw that people had mentioned virgin media and thought I’ll give it a try. It’s set up at the top of our stairs in place of one of the old ones and I have to say honest to God hand on heart we have had no problems with our Internet since we have it

I recently purchased the TP-Link Wi-Fi 6 AX3000 and was immediately impressed by its solid build quality and sleek design. The setup was straightforward, and the device performed well, delivering a strong, stable signal. It’s clear that this is a high-quality product that could enhance network performance in the right setup.However, I’ll be returning it as I misunderstood its functionality. I initially thought this device would work as a Wi-Fi extender by simply picking up an existing wireless signal and boosting it. Unfortunately, it requires a direct Ethernet connection to receive internet, which I don’t have available. The Wi-Fi here is provided by the building, so there's no way to connect it via cable.In short, a great product but not suitable for my needs. Make sure you check if you have an Ethernet source available if you’re considering this for a similar setup!

I’ve been running the Archer AX55 for a week now, and honestly — it’s been one of the most stress-free upgrades I’ve made in years. Here’s the lowdown:🛠 SetupPlug it in, open the app, done in under 10 minutes. The TP-Link Tether app is actually decent (rare for router apps, which are usually garbage). You don’t have to be some networking wizard — it’s super intuitive.📶 PerformanceThe Wi-Fi 6 speeds are excellent. My old router was choking with more than 6–7 devices online; this one easily handles 10+ (laptops, phones, smart TVs, a couple of cameras) without flinching.— 5 GHz band is rock solid — great for streaming, gaming, Zoom calls, whatever.— 2.4 GHz still covers the house for low-bandwidth stuff like smart bulbs.I’ve got about 1,600 sq ft, and it covers the whole space, even spilling into the garden.⚡ StabilityWhat surprised me most? Stability. I haven’t had to reboot this thing once since installing it. No random disconnects, no weird drops at night. It just sits there and does its job quietly — which is exactly what you want from a router.🌟 ExtrasIt’s got decent QoS, OFDMA, and WPA3 support if you’re nerdy enough to care. But even if you’re not, it comes preconfigured smart enough for 99% of people.👎 Any downsides?— No multi-gig WAN/LAN ports. But if you’re not running fiber >1 Gbps, you won’t care.— The UI in the browser could be prettier, but eh — minor gripe.
