About this product
Banish Wi-Fi dead zones with the TP-Link TL-WA850RE 300Mbps Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender, designed to strengthen and expand your existing router's signal into areas it can't reach on its own. This compact range extender connects wirelessly to your router, delivering reliable coverage throughout your home or office at speeds up to 300Mbps on the 2.4GHz band. Setup is refreshingly straightforward thanks to WPS - just press the button on your router and the Range Extender button on the 850RE within 2 minutes, and you're connected without any complicated configuration.
The single Ethernet port adds extra versatility, letting the extender work as a wireless adapter for wired devices like Blu-ray players, gaming consoles, DVRs and Internet TVs, so you can bring wireless connectivity to equipment that doesn't have built-in Wi-Fi. It reduces signal interference to keep your connection stable and consistent, whether you're streaming video, browsing or working from home. The plug-and-play design means you can position it wherever you need coverage most, making it ideal for reaching those tricky spots where your router's signal just doesn't quite make.

Easy to set up WiFi extender that improves coverage and stability, especially in dead zones and gardens. Some users note occasional dropouts or limited range, but overall good value and reliable performance.

Would buy again
This saved the additional £5 a month my broadband provider wanted for a unit I would never own and would have to pay for if accidentally broken. (Or not in perfect condition at end of contract and posted without issue). I wanted to use it without using the app but it didn’t work. Since giving in to the app we have perfect internet connection throughout the whole house. (Concrete walls ). Very well priced.

It’s okay…
I bought this a few weeks ago and although the signal is typically okay, I still face interference issues as my wifi drops out constantly which makes stability a problem. Quite easy to setup, but the coverage works for every other room apart from my bedroom, which I initially got it for.

Wouldn't work with my router.
I could not get this to connect and then the WiFi went off. I returned it to Argos and they were excellent giving me a full refund. Thank you.

Eliminate all your dead zones and get connected.
This extender gives great coverage in all dead spots with no interference to the signal and has a very stable connection to the main router, the set up is easy and straight forward with easy to read instructions and indicators on the product itself to make sure you have the best possible connection for all your devices. The price is very reasonable for a product of this quality and I would highly recommend it.

Hi,
TL-WA850RE only supports 2.4G wifi.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hello there,
Yes, the TP-Link TL-WA850RE 300Mbps Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender is universally compatible with Gigaclear Wi-Fi networks, but it will significantly bottleneck your internet speeds.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hi,
The TL-WA850RE is broadly compatible with most standard Wi-Fi routers, regardless of the brand or internet service provider — including those used by giffgaff customers. As long as your router uses standard Wi-Fi protocols, the extender should work with it.
The only exception to note is that compatibility issues may occasionally arise with routers or gateways that use modified, outdated, or non-standard firmware.
Thanks for using Q&A.

Hello there,
The supplier has advised for the TP-Link TL-WA850RE 300Mbps Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender: Yes, the range extender TL-WA850RE can work with the sky broadband 5k router.
Range extenders are designed to extend the wireless coverage of an existing router and are not limited to a specific brand. As long as the router is broadcasting a standard Wi-Fi network, the TP-Link range extender should be compatible and can be configured to connect to it.
Thank you for using Q&A.
Hello there,
TP-Link TL-WA850RE 300Mbps Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender:
It will work for gaming in the sense that it can connect your console or network setup but it's not the best choice for fast-paced shooter games.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hello there,
TP-Link TL-WA850RE 300Mbps Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender.
The item operates on a single 2.4GHz wireless band, which helps its signal pass through interior walls more effectively than 5GHz bands, though it caps maximum theoretical speeds at 300Mbps.
Thanks for using Q&A.
