5.0 out of 5 starsWorks perfectly !! The Tether app setup worked for me
Reviewed in India on 28 May 2020
From 20 to 32.5 mbps change in speed. Attached the extender box, with booklet and google internet speed test result
So I was facing the wifi latency issues in video conference calls some time as working remote is now a new norm and was facing the issue being slightly away in different room than router.
Just today got the TP link extender and followed the steps.
1. Plug and waited for Power on
2. Tried the easiest WPS setup, so pressed WPS in router and then in TP link extender, but did not work, tried again, still did not connect automatically.
3. I Followed setup type 2 as per instruction booklet and found there is a step missing.
So One suggestion to TP Link Team, Currently this is what your booklet says -> The Quick Instruction Guide -> Setup Type 2 says. -> Connect to TPLINK_ Extender wifi and Open Tether app -> Do setup.
But it misses one first step of creating TP link account which you need to do in your own home wifi only.
So here it is do add it to your manual.
3a: Be connected to your home wifi and download the Tether app.
3b: Create a account , as the app does not allow you to do setup without you logging in with your account.
3c: Once logged in go to "+" sign and select add device.
3d: Go to wifi and switch to wifi with name similar to TPLINK_extender
3e: In Tether app select under add new device page select "router extender"
3f: Follow simple step of giving your home wifi password and then the extender will create another wifi point with your existing wifi name "_EXT"
