Easy set up through the app. Make sure your extender is located close to your router to pick up the signal and extend it to “dead zones” throughout your house.

I set it up with the PC software as an access point and it started working right away. However it randomly stops working. Pages on my phone won’t load when connected to the access point, so I go unplug the power to it, plug it back in and it starts working again. Getting annoying. Also the Tether app will fail to find the device during these times it’s inoperable.

Not convinced these really work. Put one around the corner from my router (not too far away as I was in an apartment) and it didn’t seem to do much. Everything said it was working. I now I have a mesh network; much more expensive but definitely better than these extenders.

TP-Link N300 WiFi Extender Support


  • The TL-WA855RE is designed to extend an existing WiFi signal. During setup you are given the opportunity to use the same SSID for a unified WiFi name, or you can customize the extender’s SSID to differentiate it from the router.
  • It extends your current network by becoming an additional access point. For example, if your network is named “wifi1”, this becomes “wifi1_ext”. Expect speeds to be cut in half but your range is greatly improved.
  • Both,  A Range Extender can Clone or copy the host network or create a separate network SSID that is linked to the Host.  They can also in some cases be used in AP mode where it will generate a separate network.
  • It’s a network client that uses the ssid and then pushes another ssid out with the suffix “_EXT”. It interfaces within the home network, not the isp directly.
  • A range extender is compatible with virtually all Network APs and Gateways.  If a compatibility issue is found we will work with the AP or Gateway manufacture or ISP to find a solution.
  • Just plug in to wall outlet but needs some setup. if your router/modem have a WPS Button it’s very easy.Plug TP-LINK N300 to a/c outlet near your router and 1st push WPS Button on the router, 2nd push WPS Button on TP-LINK N300. few minutes later all lights will turns green on TP-LINK N300. Now relocate TP-LINK N300 about half way between router and your PC. When you scan for WiFi signal, you will see same WiFi signal name with EX at end is from TP-LINK N300. Now connect to that and your passwords is same as your router. I returned mine because it kept losing signals at various locations, and I bought a TP-LINK TL-PA4026 KIT AV500 2-port Powerline Starter Kit and very satisfy with it. With Powerline adapter I am getting 40Mbps to 60Mbps speed test. With TP-LINK N300 the best I got was about 8 Mbps to 15Mbps speed test with intermittent connections. Every location is different and you just have to try it at your home.

 

My Final Opinion of TP-Link N300 WiFi Extender


Model: WiFi Extender – N300

Despite its compact size, it may be hard to ignore the TL WA855RE due to the truly impressive way that it projects Wi Fi access into the areas of your home that your standard router simply cannot reach. The TL WA855RE supports wireless speeds of up to 300Mbps and keeps all of your favorite devices running as fast as possible. Comparable to NETGEAR N300 WiFi Range Extender (EX2700)

  1. Thanks for the info on the wifi extender.  

    This is very timely for me as I am looking to boost my signal in my home so as to be able to work from areas closer to windows and even possibly outside once the weather breaks.  

    The low profile of the unit and ability to just plug it in make this super convenient.  

    Thanks.

    1. Hello, I hope all is well,

  2. Hi Jerry,

    Thank you for such a detailed and information-packed review of the TL-WA85RE (TP-link Wifi extender).

    Technology is a two-edged sword when it works it’s amazing, and when it doesn´t it´s a headache. I like the fact that Wifi is accessible to the whole house with this device.

    I will definitely go over the pros and cons again as you have pointed out so many here.

    1. Good day, it pleases me to reply to your comment,

  3. Thank you very much for this valuable information about T.P-Link N300 Wi-Fi Extender. 

    This really means a lot to me, because my Wi-Fi coverage is low, and the T.P-Link N300 Wi-Fi Extender is very easy to setup. 

    That is an additional advantage for me. And the price of this is very reasonable. I especially like that it can be scheduled. 

    Keep posting reviews like this.

  4. Thanks for sharing this review. 

    This device will come in handy for my husband and me to bring our laptops outside and work from our yard. It seems pretty easy to set up and use.  

    It’s also great that you can turn the network off and on and choose who signs in to it.

    1. Hello,

  5. This is an extremely interesting product. 

    I didn’t realize how much extra coverage the tp-link gave until further going through your article.

    Wi-fi boosters are important when needing that online presence, and having the ability to be connected in even tight corners of your house make it much more appealing to have one of these things. 

    Thanks for the info.
