Q:Will it work with T-Mobile
by|Aug 26, 2023

Answer This Question

A:  Range Extenders are designed to connect to most routers, regardless of manufacturer or ISP. As long as your router has either 2.4GHz or 5GHz connection the Range Extender should connect.

    Answer This Question

    A:  Across a 3 bedroom house 

    by|May 27, 2023

      A:  Hi! The extender should be installed in a location where your router's Wi-Fi signal is sufficiently strong/stable, while also far enough from it to effectively extend range into the desired location.

        Q:Will this help with concrete walls?
        by|Oct 6, 2022
        2 Answers
        Answer This Question

        A:  Hi! Concrete walls are notorious for being a top contender among Wi-Fi blocking obstructions. While a Wi-Fi extender can help improve coverage and range, we cannot guarantee it will penetrate concrete or brick walls, depending on your network environment.

          A:  No, concrete blocks almost all wifi signals, you will have to use a wired connection. Mike

              1 found this answer helpful

              A:  Hi! No, it does not need to be physically connected via Ethernet to your router - it can function by receiving your router's Wi-Fi signal (wireless) and extend it for additional Wi-Fi coverage in your home. It does, however, offer the option to wire it to the router in Access Point Mode, if desired.

                A:  It does not need to plug into the router. You need to plug it into an electrical outlet near the router. Once it pairs, you can move it somewhere near the edge of the router’s range.

                  Extend Your Signal Distance
                  I used this device to extend the wi-fi out to a whole house generator located just outside of our garage. Took several tries to find a location that could pickup the original signal and still be close to the generator. At the end the signal was not as strong as I would of liked but did work.

                  Easy to set up
                  I used the app for setup and worked perfectly. When you get to the “relocate” step, you just have a to give it a couple minutes. I get strong WiFi in my backyard now.

                        Could not get unit to connect. Customer service was an absolute joke. Both times when I called to explain the issue they sent a generic YouTube setup video, then they hung up on me. Returned the unit

                        Hi,

                        Thank you for your review. If you are experiencing difficulty connecting the extender to your router, we recommend setting up the device in the same room as your router, then relocating it after setup is complete. We also suggest re-verifying your router's Wi-Fi password during setup, or if using the WPS setup method, ensuring the WPS process is performed in the correct order. The extender's indicator LEDs will help you determine which position in your home is ideal.

                        We also highly recommend ensuring the extender's firmware is fully up-to-date using the steps outlined in FAQ 1406 on our official website. To locate this FAQ, visit our website and enter 1406 in the top-right search field, then click the corresponding FAQ in the search results.

                        Best Regards,
                        TP-Link Support tplink
