Wi-Fi Extenders

TP-LINK RE305 v4 WiFi Extender Dual Band (2.4 & 5GHz) 1200Mbps

Key features:

  • Maximum WLAN Speed 1200 Mbps
  • 802.11a, 802.11ac, 802.11 b/g/n
  • Remote control
  • LAN Speed 100 Mbps
See full description

  • Maximum WLAN Speed

    Theoretical maximum speed that the repeater can offer cumulatively to connected devices. The maximum speed it can offer to a single device may be lower.

    1200

    The repeater can offer up to 1200Mbps in total to the devices connected to it. In practice, the actual speed shared among devices is closer to 200Mbps. A high-resolution 4K movie, for example, requires about 25Mbps. 2. The speed that each connected device will have depends on factors such as distance, obstacles, the number of other devices connected, the number of other networks in the same area, and so on.

  • Wi-Fi Generation

    The Wi-Fi generation is a user-friendly separation that indicates the capabilities of Wi-Fi devices (maximum wireless connection speed, number of devices that can connect, frequencies they can transmit on).

    Wi‑Fi 5

    The most common Wi-Fi standard, significantly faster than Wi-Fi 4. Wi-Fi 5 can currently meet the needs of most users, but there is now the next generation Wi-Fi 6 which offers the ability to connect many more devices to serve the increasingly growing smart devices in a home. Each subsequent generation is compatible with devices that support some of the previous ones.

  • LAN Speed

    The speed that the repeater can offer to devices connected to it via ethernet cable. 

    For simple use, this speed does not need to concern you.

    100 Mbps

    The connection via ethernet cable offers a speed of 100Mbps which is sufficient to cover all needs. For example, a high-definition 4K movie requires about 25Mbps. Greater speed only makes sense in professional environments and in repeaters that support corresponding high WLAN speeds.

Wi-Fi Features

Frequency
Dual Band (2.4 & 5GHz)

Frequency

The frequencies in which the Wi-Fi Repeater can transmit.

2. Additional frequencies allow for greater speed on more devices.

3. Most transmit on one (2.4GHz) or two (2.4&5GHz) frequencies.

Dual Band (2.4 & 5GHz)
They transmit signals on two frequencies. They offer higher speeds compared to single and can connect more devices. The 2.4Ghz frequency is the most common and usually has a large range, but it is often congested by neighboring Wi-Fi signals, making communication between devices more difficult. The 5Ghz provides faster speeds than the 2.4Ghz, but it is more sensitive to obstacles (e.g. walls) that reduce its range. This difference, as well as its more limited use, helps to reduce interference from other networks.
Maximum WLAN Speed
1200 Mbps

Maximum WLAN Speed

Theoretical maximum speed that the repeater can offer cumulatively to connected devices. The maximum speed it can offer to a single device may be lower.

1200

Wi-Fi Generation

The Wi-Fi generation is a user-friendly separation that indicates the capabilities of Wi-Fi devices (maximum wireless connection speed, number of devices that can connect, frequencies they can transmit on).

Wi‑Fi 5
The most common Wi-Fi standard, significantly faster than Wi-Fi 4. Wi-Fi 5 can currently meet the needs of most users, but there is now the next generation Wi-Fi 6 which offers the ability to connect many more devices to serve the increasingly growing smart devices in a home. Each subsequent generation is compatible with devices that support some of the previous ones.
IEEE Networking Standards
802.11 b/g/n, 802.11a, 802.11ac

IEEE Networking Standards

The networking standards describe the frequencies and maximum speeds supported by the device. This information is also reflected in the more user-friendly Wi-Fi generations, such as Wi-Fi 5 (IEEE 802.11ac) or Wi-Fi 6 (IEEE 802.11ax).

802.11 b/g/n

The older Wi-Fi standard, known as Wi-Fi 4, is significantly slower than Wi-Fi 5 (IEEE 802.11ac) and Wi-Fi 6 (IEEE 802.11ax).


It is recommended for use with few devices and for applications that do not require high speeds. For most users, it would be preferable to choose a Wi-Fi 5 or 6 device depending on their needs.


Each newer generation is compatible with devices that support a previous one.

802.11a

The older Wi-Fi standard is even older than Wi-Fi 4 (IEEE 802.11 b/g/n) which is significantly slower than Wi-Fi 5 (IEEE 802.11ac) and Wi-Fi 6 (IEEE 802.11ax).


All subsequent generations are compatible with devices that support a previous one, so it is recommended that the repeater also supports more modern standards.

802.11ac
The most common Wi-Fi standard, known as Wi-Fi 5, is significantly faster than Wi-Fi 4 (IEEE 802.11 b/g/n). 2. Wi-Fi 5 can currently meet the needs of most users, but there is now the next generation Wi-Fi 6 (IEEE 802.11ax) which offers the ability to connect many more devices to serve the increasingly smart devices in a home. 3. Each newer generation is compatible with devices that support a previous one.

Features & Functions

Mesh
No

Mesh

What is Mesh WiFi?

Mesh technology eliminates the “dead” spots in the home by creating a single network with the same name (SSID) and password everywhere.

Why is it important?

  • Automatic switching (Seamless Roaming): As you move around the house, your phone automatically connects to the strongest signal without dropping the connection (e.g. during video calls or gaming).

  • Maximum speed: Unlike simple extenders, Mesh maintains consistently high speeds without losses.

***Note: For it to work, your Router must also support the same Mesh technology (e.g. EasyMesh, OneMesh).
WPS Button
Yes

WPS Button

Allows quick and easy connection of devices to WiFi without entering a password, by pressing a button on the router and the extender.
Security Protocol
WPA, WPA2

Security Protocol

WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access)

Older security protocol for protecting WiFi networks. It offers basic encryption but is now considered outdated.

WPA2

The most widespread WiFi security standard, with stronger encryption compared to WPA. Suitable for most home and business uses.

WPA3

The newest and most secure WiFi standard, with improved protection against attacks and better security for public and private networks. Recommended for modern devices.

Installation

Socket
Yes

Socket

It connects directly to the power outlet without cables, offering a compact and easy solution for quickly extending WiFi indoors.
Desktop
-

Desktop

It is placed on a surface (desk, shelf) and usually offers better performance and coverage thanks to larger antennas and more powerful hardware.
Outdoor
No

Outdoor

Designed for outdoor use, with resistance to weather conditions (humidity, dust, temperature), ideal for yards, gardens, or commercial spaces.

Good range and speed, but I also face the same problem that has been mentioned. After some time, it gets stuck in the socket and doesn't let you connect. The only way is to restart it. Probably overheating. It doesn't happen very often, but it's annoying.

I had the exact same problem with another tp link repeater, the cheaper one from the company. This one, of course, does it more frequently, I think. I bought this one because I thought the other one was broken, but it seems to be a general issue.

UPDATE 3/9/2022: Guys, it's not worth buying. It disconnects frequently and you have to unplug it and plug it back in.

UPDATE 24/9/2022: I contacted tp link about the problem and they sent me some instructions with settings. I tried the first solution they suggested and so far, the problem hasn't occurred again. Of course, the weather is not as hot anymore, so we'll see how it goes. For now, I'm changing the rating and we'll see. For those who have the same problem, I'm uploading the company's instructions for them to see -> [link]

UPDATE 17/7/2023: Unfortunately, the problem remains no matter what I do.

Very good at first but now after a while (2-3 months) it gets stuck in the socket 3-4 times a day and needs a restart. It probably overheats.

    +Quality device from an external perspective, connected relatively easily, good support from the company's app step by step. Quite good coverage from the ground floor to the first floor in a dead spot. So far (3 days) it hasn't had any irregularities... time will tell.

    -By default, the instructions on paper and in the app explain how to create a second wifi through it, which will be named (routername)_EXT. They don't tell you how to extend the already existing wifi signal (mesh) without creating wifi_EXT. Fortunately, AI helped me with this.

    So far it hasn't had any signal interruptions. It provides wifi even when the router from a well-known mobile and landline company freezes. I have 2. One is in a relatively easy spot and does its job as expected. The second one is on another floor and in a difficult spot, and it does an amazing job, so if I need something like this based on current conditions, it's the only way to go.

    Upgrade from TL-WA855RE v1 (first version from a decade ago).

    + Plug and Play via the Tether app
    + Distance of 25 meters from the router with 3 walls and a refrigerator in between
    + Although in measurements it reaches up to 250Mbps from 300Mbps, I don't see a difference in video streaming, browsing social media, and set to low signal strength.

    I highly recommend it

    Satisfied with the TP-Link MR600 router, I decided to get this one here, unfortunately it turned out to be terrible. Continuous disconnections, it showed no internet. This problem is actually known on the internet, but I couldn't find a solution. It got very hot, and finally yesterday after a week it broke, the lights won't turn on anymore. R.I.P. I got the slower RE200, after a little waiting and patience it connected just fine. Let's see how this one does...

    setup is "annoying" but it works wonders, 5Ghz is not that good but that could be because I have not installed the latest firmware or something like that? I am not sure. You don't need it anyways as I am hitting "cable" speeds on 2.4ghz with a TP-link wifi adapter. Stable connection without random dropouts or spikes in ping (in gaming).

Άμα έχω το ρουτερ μου στον κάτω όροφο και θέλω καλύτερη σύνδεση στον πάνω όροφο αυτό κάνει δουλειά ; Και αν ναι να το βάλω στον πάνω όροφο η κάτω μαζί με το ρουτερ ;

λογικά ναι αν το βάλεις στον πάνω όροφο ακριβώς πάνω απο το ρούτερ, έχει καλή εμβέλια κυρίως στο ίδιο επίπεδο και έχω παρατηρήσει πως το σήμα του δυσκολεύεται να διαπεράσει μπετόν και πέτρα ειδικά απο τον κάτω όροφο προς τον πάνω.κατα τ'άλλα είναι πολύ καλό

Technical Specifications

Ethernet Ports
1

Ethernet Ports

The ethernet cable ports available on the device. Devices can be connected to these ports with corresponding cables and have access to the local network of the house as well as the internet.

For example, a printer can be accessed by all other devices on the network.
LAN speed
100 Mbps

LAN speed

The speed that the repeater can offer to devices connected to it via ethernet cable. 

For simple use, this speed does not need to concern you.

100 Mbps
The connection via ethernet cable offers a speed of 100Mbps which is sufficient to cover all needs. For example, a high-definition 4K movie requires about 25Mbps. Greater speed only makes sense in professional environments and in repeaters that support corresponding high WLAN speeds.
USB
Without

USB

The device has a USB port.

The USB port, depending on the device, can be used to connect other devices (such as a printer) so that all other devices connected to the home network can access them.
Number of Antennas
2
Passthrough
No

Wi-Fi Features

Frequency
Dual Band (2.4 & 5GHz)

Frequency

The frequencies in which the Wi-Fi Repeater can transmit.

2. Additional frequencies allow for greater speed on more devices.

3. Most transmit on one (2.4GHz) or two (2.4&5GHz) frequencies.

Dual Band (2.4 & 5GHz)
They transmit signals on two frequencies. They offer higher speeds compared to single and can connect more devices. The 2.4Ghz frequency is the most common and usually has a large range, but it is often congested by neighboring Wi-Fi signals, making communication between devices more difficult. The 5Ghz provides faster speeds than the 2.4Ghz, but it is more sensitive to obstacles (e.g. walls) that reduce its range. This difference, as well as its more limited use, helps to reduce interference from other networks.
Maximum WLAN Speed
1200 Mbps

Maximum WLAN Speed

Theoretical maximum speed that the repeater can offer cumulatively to connected devices. The maximum speed it can offer to a single device may be lower.

1200
The repeater can offer up to 1200Mbps in total to the devices connected to it. In practice, the actual speed shared among devices is closer to 200Mbps. A high-resolution 4K movie, for example, requires about 25Mbps. 2. The speed that each connected device will have depends on factors such as distance, obstacles, the number of other devices connected, the number of other networks in the same area, and so on.
Wi-Fi Generation
Wi‑Fi 5

Wi-Fi Generation

The Wi-Fi generation is a user-friendly separation that indicates the capabilities of Wi-Fi devices (maximum wireless connection speed, number of devices that can connect, frequencies they can transmit on).

Wi‑Fi 5
The most common Wi-Fi standard, significantly faster than Wi-Fi 4. Wi-Fi 5 can currently meet the needs of most users, but there is now the next generation Wi-Fi 6 which offers the ability to connect many more devices to serve the increasingly growing smart devices in a home. Each subsequent generation is compatible with devices that support some of the previous ones.
IEEE Networking Standards
802.11 b/g/n, 802.11a, 802.11ac

IEEE Networking Standards

The networking standards describe the frequencies and maximum speeds supported by the device. This information is also reflected in the more user-friendly Wi-Fi generations, such as Wi-Fi 5 (IEEE 802.11ac) or Wi-Fi 6 (IEEE 802.11ax).

802.11 b/g/n

The older Wi-Fi standard, known as Wi-Fi 4, is significantly slower than Wi-Fi 5 (IEEE 802.11ac) and Wi-Fi 6 (IEEE 802.11ax).


It is recommended for use with few devices and for applications that do not require high speeds. For most users, it would be preferable to choose a Wi-Fi 5 or 6 device depending on their needs.


Each newer generation is compatible with devices that support a previous one.

802.11a

The older Wi-Fi standard is even older than Wi-Fi 4 (IEEE 802.11 b/g/n) which is significantly slower than Wi-Fi 5 (IEEE 802.11ac) and Wi-Fi 6 (IEEE 802.11ax).


All subsequent generations are compatible with devices that support a previous one, so it is recommended that the repeater also supports more modern standards.

802.11ac
The most common Wi-Fi standard, known as Wi-Fi 5, is significantly faster than Wi-Fi 4 (IEEE 802.11 b/g/n). 2. Wi-Fi 5 can currently meet the needs of most users, but there is now the next generation Wi-Fi 6 (IEEE 802.11ax) which offers the ability to connect many more devices to serve the increasingly smart devices in a home. 3. Each newer generation is compatible with devices that support a previous one.

Features & Functions

Mesh
No

Mesh

What is Mesh WiFi?

Mesh technology eliminates the “dead” spots in the home by creating a single network with the same name (SSID) and password everywhere.

Why is it important?

  • Automatic switching (Seamless Roaming): As you move around the house, your phone automatically connects to the strongest signal without dropping the connection (e.g. during video calls or gaming).

  • Maximum speed: Unlike simple extenders, Mesh maintains consistently high speeds without losses.

***Note: For it to work, your Router must also support the same Mesh technology (e.g. EasyMesh, OneMesh).
WPS Button
Yes

WPS Button

Allows quick and easy connection of devices to WiFi without entering a password, by pressing a button on the router and the extender.
Security Protocol
WPA, WPA2

Security Protocol

WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access)

Older security protocol for protecting WiFi networks. It offers basic encryption but is now considered outdated.

WPA2

The most widespread WiFi security standard, with stronger encryption compared to WPA. Suitable for most home and business uses.

WPA3

The newest and most secure WiFi standard, with improved protection against attacks and better security for public and private networks. Recommended for modern devices.

Installation

Socket
Yes

Socket

It connects directly to the power outlet without cables, offering a compact and easy solution for quickly extending WiFi indoors.
Desktop
-

Desktop

It is placed on a surface (desk, shelf) and usually offers better performance and coverage thanks to larger antennas and more powerful hardware.
Outdoor
No

Outdoor

Designed for outdoor use, with resistance to weather conditions (humidity, dust, temperature), ideal for yards, gardens, or commercial spaces.

Good range and speed, but I also face the same problem that has been mentioned. After some time, it gets stuck in the socket and doesn't let you connect. The only way is to restart it. Probably overheating. It doesn't happen very often, but it's annoying.

I had the exact same problem with another tp link repeater, the cheaper one from the company. This one, of course, does it more frequently, I think. I bought this one because I thought the other one was broken, but it seems to be a general issue.

UPDATE 3/9/2022: Guys, it's not worth buying. It disconnects frequently and you have to unplug it and plug it back in.

UPDATE 24/9/2022: I contacted tp link about the problem and they sent me some instructions with settings. I tried the first solution they suggested and so far, the problem hasn't occurred again. Of course, the weather is not as hot anymore, so we'll see how it goes. For now, I'm changing the rating and we'll see. For those who have the same problem, I'm uploading the company's instructions for them to see -> [link]

UPDATE 17/7/2023: Unfortunately, the problem remains no matter what I do.

Very good at first but now after a while (2-3 months) it gets stuck in the socket 3-4 times a day and needs a restart. It probably overheats.

    +Quality device from an external perspective, connected relatively easily, good support from the company's app step by step. Quite good coverage from the ground floor to the first floor in a dead spot. So far (3 days) it hasn't had any irregularities... time will tell.

    -By default, the instructions on paper and in the app explain how to create a second wifi through it, which will be named (routername)_EXT. They don't tell you how to extend the already existing wifi signal (mesh) without creating wifi_EXT. Fortunately, AI helped me with this.

    So far it hasn't had any signal interruptions. It provides wifi even when the router from a well-known mobile and landline company freezes. I have 2. One is in a relatively easy spot and does its job as expected. The second one is on another floor and in a difficult spot, and it does an amazing job, so if I need something like this based on current conditions, it's the only way to go.

    Upgrade from TL-WA855RE v1 (first version from a decade ago).

    + Plug and Play via the Tether app
    + Distance of 25 meters from the router with 3 walls and a refrigerator in between
    + Although in measurements it reaches up to 250Mbps from 300Mbps, I don't see a difference in video streaming, browsing social media, and set to low signal strength.

    I highly recommend it

    Satisfied with the TP-Link MR600 router, I decided to get this one here, unfortunately it turned out to be terrible. Continuous disconnections, it showed no internet. This problem is actually known on the internet, but I couldn't find a solution. It got very hot, and finally yesterday after a week it broke, the lights won't turn on anymore. R.I.P. I got the slower RE200, after a little waiting and patience it connected just fine. Let's see how this one does...

    setup is "annoying" but it works wonders, 5Ghz is not that good but that could be because I have not installed the latest firmware or something like that? I am not sure. You don't need it anyways as I am hitting "cable" speeds on 2.4ghz with a TP-link wifi adapter. Stable connection without random dropouts or spikes in ping (in gaming).
