Does its job

I bought the TP link to extend my network to the upper floor of the house where the reception was bad because of the thick load-bearing walls. I had a bit of trouble configuring it because of my box settings by MAC address but after a little adaptation everything is back in order and everything works perfectly.

non-functional

I bought this device on the basis of the comments of the buyers and for the first time in 5 or 6 years and about twenty products bought at LDLC I am not satisfied. The repeater connects well to the PC but does not connect to the Freebox, so I have no access to the tp-link site and it is impossible to configure the box. It seems that this equipment is incompatible with the Freebox V5

        Gives you good WiFi where none exists

        I was initially reluctant to have WiFi outside, but since I bought it my outdoor cameras have been working well and the connection is very stable. Don't put it outside in the rain, but under a shelter.

        A WiFi repeater and access point that does its job well

        The TP-Link RE450 can be used in three ways:
        - As a repeater, i.e. it amplifies the WiFi signal to carry it further into the house.
        - As a WiFi access point, in which case it is connected to an RJ45 socket and emits a WiFi signal
        - As a remote RJ45 internet socket, in which case it picks up the WiFi signal and transmits the internet signal to its RJ45 socket

        For my part, I use it as a WiFi access point, which works very well.
        It may take a bit of reading to set it up, but it's not rocket science either.

        Good product but difficult to access.

        Once set up, it's fine.
        But you have to know German and guess that you should not connect with TP-Link.

        Excellent and simply implemented very good scope

        Used to cover a swimming pool 40m from the house and worked fine.
        Very good product to recommend
        No need to recalibrate devices as it uses the same network name as the original, which is not the case with all repeaters that recreate a new network on transmission.

        Product meets my expectations.
        Easy and quick installation.
        The WIFI network is much more accessible.
        I recommend it without hesitation.

        Major connection problems

        It often has trouble providing an IP address, so it must be disconnected/reconnected. Its first connection with the router to be repeated is laborious. And finally its coverage is disappointing (signal strength).
        I also have a TP-LINK TL-WA855RE (3 times less expensive) which is extremely efficient. I was therefore able to make a real comparison between these 2 products from the same brand. The TP-LINK TL-WA855RE largely surpasses it at the level of the 1st start-up, connection of the wifi equipment, regularity of the good functioning, field of coverage. As a result, I strongly advise against the TP-LINK RE450.

        Perfect - single powerful in 5g

        I'm very pleased with this product, it's very quick to install via the mobile app, it makes up for the Freebox revolution's Wifi shortcomings perfectly and becomes an essential relay in a rather complicated flat. I've been using it for a while now, but it's a good idea to use it for a while now.

        Easy to implement

        The implementation is simple, the parameter setting clear (in French) and rather complete, only lacking, for me, the filtering by MAC address.
        I appreciate the on/off switch and the setting of the operating hours.
        A little disappointed by the power... even if it does the job!

        Improves wifi range. Configuration via smartphone impossible, but successful via laptop and direct ethernet connection.
        Relatively quick delivery, due to the current health situation.

        Good performance as an access point, very good box

        I was able to use it with the help of an advisor who gave me a very good guide on how to turn the device into an access point. Very efficient device, I recommend it. Good value for money.

        I bought this TP Link because my box is far from the pc and impossible to put a HDMI cable. It works really well, easy to install and very good Wi-Fi reception!

        Satisfied but ...

        The product is as I expected and as described. The only small drawback is the size of the object. The photos do not make it look smaller than it is. With its antennas deployed, it takes up at least 20cm by 10cm of space on a power outlet. Otherwise it works well. Both networks are extensive and too much configuration.

        Quality product

        Good material

        The TP-Link RE450 Wifi Repeater allows me to extend the Wifi network coverage on all three levels of my house. Since I installed the RE450 Wifi Repeater, my signal is better in all rooms.
        I recommend this item for its efficiency.
        I had some difficulties with the setup.
        I would also like to thank you for the fast delivery.

        I've been using it for a while now and it's a great tool for me to get my devices connected.
        Very efficient, allows me to connect my devices with a good speed in areas that before were not covered by the wifi (the first floor of a house is now covered while the device is connected to the ground floor).
        No problems of disconnection noted in 3 years of operation, customer happy with his purchase.

        Effective

        More expensive than the previous model (TP-LINK TL-WA850RE) but much more powerful. Easy to install and to use. However, if you move to another area of the house, the device does not necessarily reconnect automatically, you have to deactivate and reactivate the wifi... Good to know!

        Very good product

        Used to replace the WIFI of my box, this box offers the possibility of setting time slots for each user connected. The signal strength is much better than my box.
        I've been using it for a while now, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use it as a repeater or not. But a bit of a hassle at first. A half star less for the doc.

        Easy to set up in WiFi (without WPS).
        Significantly improved reception for remote devices.
        Small problem with equipment in the overlap area, where they didn't know which access point to connect to: solution change the SSID of the repeater!

        Clear, impeccable

        Good quality repeater, does its job.
        I had to plug it in with the ethernet cable to set it up, despite the WPS button on my livebox and the device.
        Once in the program to configure it, the rest is very simple.

        I recommend this product.

        Works very well

        This device is in accordance with my expectations:
        - it can play the role of repeater or antenna (mode to be selected in the interface, on the top right, I specify because I struggled to find)
        - you can adjust its power internally (in addition to the optional USB deployment)
        - it can create a 2.4GHz WIFIn or 5 GHZ WIFIac network or both

        I had to replace another repeater that was showing signs of fatigue, lower speed, disconnection, ... this one is not wider in coverage and distance, but the speed and quality of the signal is closer to the original box, which is what I was looking for.

        To be recommended

        My Wifi coverage was not at its best, now with this Repeater my network is at its best!

        Copy and paste from another review :
        I've been using it for a while now, but it's a good idea to use it as an access point to connect to the wired network via its ethernet port.

        Ideal to extend the Wifi to the other end of the flat!

        Super Wifi Extender that allows me to have the same Wifi speed (download & upload) in 5Ghz at the other end of the flat as next to the fibre internet box!

        Another added value: it can be transformed into a Wifi access point connected to the cable network via its ethernet port.

        TP-LINK RE 450

        I received the equipment as ordered, but there was a problem with a damaged antenna, and I should not trust the promotion offered by this brand, it is a lie, I could not provide all the parts requested, the site was not recognised.

        Significant improvement in signal quality

        I'm very happy with the installation of the Freebox Revolution and the signal has improved a lot, even if it's not yet stable enough (very thick walls) to watch a video stream without any interruption at the end of the reception area. I hope to be able to totally eradicate my problem by associating another repeater.

        2.4 Ghz speed loss

        Despite good reception, I can't find my 30 megs (VDSL), it is reduced to 21 megs. To get around the problem, I deactivated the 2.4 ghz reception on the repeater to keep only the 5 ghz and find the original speed (box used=livebox 3)

        Excellent, no need to invest in a more expensive product

        A product that is easy to use but above all, efficient. It finally allows you to have wifi on a low-end smartphone at the other end of the house.
        Don't forget to update the firmware to unlock some useful options such as the automatic switch off at night or the adjustment of the signal strength delivered by the repeater.
        I recommend it.

        95% loss of flow performance

        Following an installation to repeat the WIFI signal to extend it, we note a loss of bandwidth of the order of 95% (from 43Mb/s to only 2Mb/s)

        The Wifi terminal is a TP-LINK TL-WA901ND and the repeater a
        P-LINK RE450.

        We have no explanation for this loss.

        Real improvement

        This TP-Link RE450 model combines both technology and simplicity of installation (5 minutes) which was done manually with a Freebox revolution, following the very clear instructions that fit on a single page of the manual.
        I've had no problems with it since it went live, confirmed by 2 different apps installed on the smartphone and tablet that measure the strength of the wifi signal. Areas that were very poorly covered are now well served.
        I would like to underline the speed in the perfect execution of the order and the delivery of the equipment (2 days) by LDLC

        Very good product

        Bought 2 weeks ago, I had a bad reception in the living room due to a thick wall and the kitchen between the router and the living room, since then everything is fine, I even get reception on the terrace
        Easy installation and very practical software provided
        The service is top notch as usual

        Good product

        Extremely simple configuration with WPS (manual configuration via web browser is also possible), greatly increased range, and moderate power consumption, so we can say that the contract is fulfilled! I haven't had the time to measure the transfer rates precisely yet, but it doesn't seem to be that way either.

        Excellent range.

        I received the package on time (less than 24 hours). The TP-LINK RE-450 corresponds perfectly to what I wanted: an extension of the wifi at a distance from the source (30 to 35 meters) where the wifi of my laptop was not receiving. The configuration is very well explained and very fast even without WPS (old generation free box). It's a great product and I'm very happy with it.

        Effective

        Used as an AP, Wi-Fi access point.
        Replaces the Wi-Fi of my ageing box.
        Getting it up and running was difficult, as AP mode was not included in the V1 firmware.
        Flashing is therefore compulsory, but before that, you have to manage to connect!
        There is an integrated DHCP server, basic configuration in 192.168.0.x
        Direct wifi connection, fortunately my Mac gave me the IP of the box, otherwise I probably wouldn't have succeeded...
        The box is elegant, WPS integrated, correct range.
