Works brilliantly as a wifi extender for my Ring doorbell. I haven't tried connecting anythign else to it. Easy to set up and it definitely extends the battery life of the doorbell.

One star for ease of set-up: Wireless setup failed. Had to configure via ethernet cable, which was fine. But then, when I tried to use the device (to connect my Youview Box via ethernet cable) it wasn't working. Spent over an hour on TP-Link's chat support, who asked all sorts of technical questions that I didn't really have answers to. But the support was friendly and helpful, even if the procedure they took me through was a bit of a headache.The support person finally sent a link to upgrade the firmware, which I did, with some effort, not being a tech-minded person at all. Then I had to re-configure the product again, running through the basic setup procedure once more. Also, the product won't work when plugged in to an extension cord - it has to be in a wall socket. That wasn't really clear to me when I bought the product.Now, with upgraded firmware, and plugged into a wall socket, the product works very well. Great wifi signal in my sitting room, and the Youview works brilliantly. But the trouble I had setting it up felt like messing around with a PC back in 1998. These days you expect a different level of user friendliness.

This unassuming little device has given our wi-fi a new lease of life, and enabled me to work out in the garden throughout the summer. So easy to set up, such a low footprint, and in my tests the speed of the broadband connection is as good through the extender as it is through the main wi-fi, even when I'm sat next to the wi-fi and the extender is 2 rooms away. Plus you don't even lose the plug socket you plug it into, or the one next to it, and it's one of the cheapest devices I found when searching for something to do this job. Just a couple of words of caution. If you (or someone else in your house!) do plug something into the plug socket it exposes, be mindful that when you unplug that device you can sometimes pull the wifi extender out of the socket, and then you lose your improved wifi range (and it might take a while to realise why). Also, once you've set it all up, you do need to set your devices to connect to the new access point (with the suffix _EXT), this isn't mentioned in the instructions as far as I remember, and it caught me out because I assumed that wasn't necessary. Those caveats aside, this has seen me videoconferencing in the garden and using my phone in rooms that previously had no wifi all through the summer - for this price, I can't fault it!

I bought two of these. Just remember that once you have set up the first one, unplug it before you try to set up others. otherwise you will have problems. Setup itself was reasonably painless, once I had worked that out. I have far better WIFI coverage now.

This is only a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi unit and does not provide better than 15Mb/s pass-through speeds when extending over Wi-Fi. This might be a bottleneck if you are running many devices through this unit. If you have newer devices, you would be better off purchasing a 5GHz compatible unit. I also had to manually configure the unit by the hardwired connection and despite typing in the correct IP address many times, it too some time for the unit's web interface to respond. It does the job, but you would be better off buying unit that is more forward compatible.

Great product! Very easy to install and user friendly. Solved my problem real quick and I am now able to connect this device to my CCTV with a 1m cable instead of connecting with a 15m long ethernet cable.

I recently purchased the TP-Link TL-WA860RE N300 Universal Range Extender with Extra Power Outlet, and unfortunately, my experience with this product has been quite disappointing.Firstly, the setup process was more complicated than expected, with confusing instructions that made it challenging to get the extender up and running. It took me a significant amount of time to troubleshoot and configure the device, which was frustrating.In terms of performance, I found that the range extender did not provide a significant boost to my Wi-Fi signal strength. Even when placed in optimal locations, the extension of my network coverage was minimal, leading to continued dead zones in my home where the signal remained weak or non-existent.The extra power outlet feature, while convenient in theory, did not function reliably. I encountered issues with the power outlet not working intermittently, which was a major downside considering one of the selling points of this product.Despite reaching out to Amazon for a replacement, the second unit they sent did not perform any better. This consistent lack of improvement only added to my disappointment with the TP-Link TL-WA860RE N300 Universal Range Extender.Overall, I would not recommend this product to those seeking a reliable and effective solution for extending their Wi-Fi coverage. The setup difficulties, lackluster performance, and unreliable power outlet make this range extender fall short of expectations, even after attempting a replacement.

Worked fine for 2.4 wifi. Not for 5g wifi.
