What customers say about "Key Specs"
TP-LINK RE200 AC750 WiFi Range Extender
  • To my surprise not only did the TP-Link boost the signal to the 2nd floor as desired but it also increased my signal strength in the basement on my primary PC.
  • As for the speed of the connection via the extender, it is the same as directly via the rooter. I was expecting a speed decrease but no.
  • I was getting sub 3 mbps download speeds. After installing this baby it throttled to 56 mbps.
  • With the extender, its a solid 30mbps with perfect signal. Given our internet speeds the extender is operation 100% perfectly.
  • The show loading speed is never immediate but is quicker than it has been.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"
TP-LINK RE200 AC750 WiFi Range Extender
  • The unit itself is nice and small with NO WIRES! Due to it's size, I am easily able to hide it behind a storage rack and still have the quality signal I expect from my internet.
  • The device is TINY! It's the size of a stinking night light!
  • It is small and unobtrusive - I had one member of my family convinced it was a nightlight for a minute or two - and yet it is a powerful tool.
  • It's small and unobtrusive and looks great!
  • It's small and when plugged in looks something like a night light or air freshener.
