RE815XE AXE5400Mbps Tri-Band Mesh WiFi 6E Internet Booster, Range Extender Booster Hotspot with 1 Gigabit Port, 160 MHz Channels, Built-In Access Point Mode, Smart Roaming One-Mesh, Easy Setup

Super easy to set up, connects very quickly. Even though I am the opposite side of the house to the router I was able to set it up without going near the router. I live in a shared house so I often have difficulties with the WiFi especially as I am at the opposite end of the house from the router. My computer used to regularly disconnect from the WiFi all the time but that has never occurred while using this WiFi i extender. I connected it to my Chromebook with no issues at all. It provides a stable connection despite taking up almost no space. Great stability with video calls. I didn't have to put it on a wall or anything like its just resting on my desk and doing its job. I connected it to my Chromebook using an Ethernet cable. Great Wifi Extender I highly recommend it.

A great easy to set up and use item. Easy connection to my Wi-Fi and works a treat.

What I loved: The setup was really straightforward — TP-Link always does a good job with that. Once connected, the coverage boost was noticeable straight away. Dead zones became usable zones, and devices held onto their signal much more reliably. Speeds are solid, especially with the WiFi 6E band available. When it’s in a good placement, it genuinely feels like you’ve extended your main router rather than sticking on a cheap repeater. What made me sigh loudly: Performance depends a lot on where you put it. Move it slightly too far from the main signal and the speeds drop more than expected. Not a deal-breaker, just requires some experimenting to get the best out of it. Should you buy it? Yes — as long as you place it well, it’s a great way to extend coverage and boost speeds around the house. For mesh setups, it integrates nicely and works reliably once dialled in. Easy setup. Strong speeds. Good coverage improvement. Just a bit sensitive to placement. Still recommend — especially for WiFi 6/6E homes needing a coverage boost.

This tp-link AX1500 Wi-Fi Range Extender has solved our problem. We recommend it. We live in a 3-bedroom flat, with one bedroom used as an office to work from home so signal strength and reliability are critical. Last month we changed our broadband provider and router equipment from Virgin to Sky. The signal in the office got worse which was unexpected as it is not far away but there are two room doors and some furnishings which may obstruct. I was having issues, sluggish, freezing on Zoom calls, audio cut outs, unable to swiftly load multiple tabs/pages. Using the Windows Command prompt, I took over 45 readings of the signal strength coming into the laptop over four weeks. The signal strength was below 69% over half the time and never higher than 81%-85% and then only very infrequently. Since getting the AX1500, all readings at all times with all doors shut are above 90% (92%-97%). My work laptop is faster, snappier, and no more cutting out on Zoom calls. The extender device was super easy and fast to set up. I was happy to be a little surprised that this extender works so well, exceeding my expectations - as some of the other reviews were not as positive and it made me hesitant to purchase for a week or two, until the poor performance forced me to take a chance and buy it. I am so glad I did. I hope your experience with it will be a positive as ours.

Terrific product! I had a dead zone in my house where the Internet speed was anything from 5mbps to 20mbps. After installing this extender it is now a whopping 120mbps. It took a bit of setting up but it was worth the hassle. You definitely must follow the instructions and place the extender at the midway point between your router and the dead zone for best result. Would definitely recommend this

Absolute waste of time, could not get this extender to connect, even direct plugged in via Ethernet would not work. Tether app stuck in a loop with no way to fix the issue. Support pointless on both chat, disconnected after 20minutes and telephone conversation even worse with pigeon English conversations that make no comprehensible sense.

TP-Link are one of the few companies that are pushing out routers and other accessories that can make use of the 6E standard. Or so they claim. In reality, things are not what they seem. I purchased a TP-Link AXE75 some months ago, which is a Triple band (2/5/6) router and access point. It's really good - cannot knock it at all. One of its claims is that it can use the 6GHz band to implement a wireless back-haul to other 6E capable devices. What this means is that if you were to put, say, a similarly equipped range extender somewhere in your home, the two would establish a private 6GHz back-haul over which they would carry any 2 and 5 GHz traffic. This is very useful, since it frees up the 2/5 networks for data from your devices, rather than storing and forwarding the data over the 2/5 links, slowing them down. Trouble is, until recently, TP-Link didn't make such a range extender. But they told me they were working on one. And here it is - just released - the RE815XE. Now that it is installed, I can see that whilst it is working well, it is NOT implementing the advertised 6GHz back haul. Even the carton tells you that it will do this. It will not. I've spoken with the rather good TP-Link support team and they confirm that it is a feature still to be added. 10/10 for honesty. But this product has been available for months in the US. They've had plenty of time to get this feature sorted out. Maybe a regulatory hurdle has held them up? Who knows. Anyway - just to manage your expectations. This device does work well as a Mesh range extender, but it's greatest potential trick - the 6GHz wireless back-haul - is not available. Yet. TP-Link claim it's coming in a future firmware update. If and when it does turn up, I'll update this post.

Great device if your router is too far away from your computer to use enthernet, I get download speeds of up to 450mbps with this, was extremely easy to get set up, it also has good software built in and you can download an app on your phone to acccess it, not sure about the signal strength as I only use it for enthernet to my computer, I have connected it to my phone and the speeds stay basically the same as if I was on the actual internet, definitely worth the price, I went from about 60mbps to over 400mbps.
