Description

TP-Link RE205 AC750 Wi-Fi Range Extender for Better Dual-Band Coverage

The TP-Link RE205 is designed to extend an existing Wi-Fi network into rooms or areas where your router’s signal is weak. It connects wirelessly to the router and rebroadcasts both 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi.

Its intelligent signal light helps with placement, while the Ethernet port also allows the RE205 to operate as a dual-band wireless access point when a wired network connection is available.

Is This Right for You?

• Choose the RE205 when you already have a working Wi-Fi router but need stronger coverage in another part of the home or office.
• It is suitable for dual-band networks, with up to 300Mbps on 2.4GHz and 433Mbps on 5GHz.
• Access Point mode is useful when Ethernet cabling reaches the required location and you want to create a local Wi-Fi network from that wired connection.
• If you require Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, consider another model because the RE205 has a 10/100Mbps Ethernet port.

Why Choose This Product?

• Extend weak Wi-Fi coverage: The RE205 connects to your existing router and rebroadcasts its wireless network into areas the router struggles to reach.
• Dual-band flexibility: Separate 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands provide a choice between longer-range everyday connectivity and the faster 5GHz band for compatible devices.
• Easier placement: The intelligent signal light indicates whether the extender has a suitable connection to the main router, helping you avoid positioning it too far away.
• Access Point mode: Connect Ethernet to the RE205 when you need to turn an existing wired connection into dual-band Wi-Fi.
• Convenient management: TP-Link’s Tether app supports setup and network management from compatible Android and iOS devices.

Before You Buy

• The RE205 requires an existing Wi-Fi router or wireless access point when used as a range extender.
• For Access Point mode, a wired Ethernet network connection is required.
• The Ethernet interface is 10/100Mbps rather than Gigabit Ethernet.
• Maximum wireless rates are theoretical link rates. Actual speed and coverage vary with walls, interference, network traffic, device capability and extender placement.
• Compatibility may be affected by routers or gateways using altered, non-standard or outdated firmware.
