Effective and simple
Simple to use and easy to set up. Fitted my needs perfectly

Not fit for purpose
I ordered this as I couldn’t get WiFi in the garden in the summer. I plugged it in right by the back door but the signal was so weak that it was useless. I would have returned it but I missed the 14 day window. Completely useless for what I needed it for unfortunately

Great for down the Garden
I bought this to extend my WiFi down the garden. Works very well, although we have a small garden.

Good product. Difficult setup.
It is working now and works very well. I am very satisfied with it as a product. But the setup was difficult. It took about 6 frustrating hours to get it to integrate with my WiFi. Some of that time was with their online assistance, but it wasn't a plug and play experience.

Perfect features
The product is very nice and definitely worth it. The price is reasonable, and you won’t regret buying it. It’s very helpful, especially since I share internet with other tenants. Having my own connection in my room is convenient, fast, and works really well. Overall, I’m very satisfied.

Hello James,
I can advise the following for the TP-Link TL-WA850RE 300Mbps Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender:
Yes, this is possible to hardwire the extender so that you can reach areas that Wi-Fi can't pass through.
Thanks for using Q & A.
Hello,
Yes, the TP-Link TL-WA850RE is universally compatible and will work with your BT full fibre 150 setup. However, its technical specifications will limit the potential speed you can achieve.
Compatibility
The TP-Link TL-WA850RE is designed to be a universal Wi-Fi range extender, working with virtually any Wi-Fi router or wireless access point, including the BT Hub provided with your Full Fibre 150 service.
Connectivity: Connection can be established easily using the WPS button on both the extender and your BT Hub.
Wired Option: The extender also features a single Ethernet port, allowing you to connect a wired device (like a gaming console or TV) to your network.
Potential Issue: In some cases with older BT Hubs, users have reported issues with the "Smart Setup" feature needing to be turned off in the hub manager for a seamless connection.
Have a nice day!
Hi Richard,
The extender can connect to and extend a phone's mobile hotspot Wi-Fi. The setup process for connecting to a mobile hotspot Wi-Fi is the same as connecting to a router. However, some hotspot Wi-Fi may not be stable as phones are not specially made for sharing Wi-Fi. Moving the phone's position frequently may also influence the extender's connection.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hello Barnetman,
TP-Link TL-WA850RE 300Mbps Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender
As this device extends Wi-Fi signal, it isn't connected to the router using an ethernet cable. To connect it to your router, plug it into a mains socket near to your router, connect the device, then move the device and plug it in at the desired location.
Thanks for using Q&A
Hi,
The TL-WA850RE only supports 2.4G WiFi. If your router also supports 2.4G, and the 2.4G and 5G networks are separate, then this range extender can extend your router network.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hi,

Hello Jj
TP-Link TL-WA850RE 300Mbps Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender
You can use this to extend the range of Vodafone broadband.
Thanks for using Q&A.
I would try asking again because the answer you received was very unhelpful. I would imagine that of course it works on 4g.
