TP-Link TL-WA854RE repetor Wi-Fi – 300 Mbps, 2,4 GHz, 802.11b/g/n (TL-WA854RE(UK))

The TP-LINK TL-WA854RE range extender increases the coverage and signal strength of an existing wireless network to reduce or eliminate dead zones. Supporting wireless N speeds up to 300 Mbps and equipped with a compact, wall-mounted design and a dedicated Range Extender button, the device simplifies expanding home or small-office Wi-Fi for activities such as HD video streaming, music playback and online gaming.

Advantages

The compact wall-mounted form factor allows flexible placement and easy relocation. The profile memory stores previously connected wireless networks so the extender does not need to be reset when switching paired routers. One-touch setup via the router's WPS button and the extender's Range Extender button enables quick, cable-free installation. A dedicated pair button can also create an encrypted connection with client devices.

How to use

Use the pair button to create an encrypted connection with client devices when needed. Move the extender to a location where the signal indicator shows strong reception from the router for optimal performance.

Recommendations

Place the extender roughly midway between the router and the areas with weak signal, avoid locations near large metal objects or appliances that cause interference, and verify the signal indicator shows a strong or adequate level before finalizing placement.
