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.

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.

A great item boosting my internet.

Easy set up PROVIDED you follow the instructions
I wasn’t sure if this would improve the house WiFi signal to the far reaches of a cottage with 2 ft thick walls but it did and it does. Much improved signal now in all rooms. The set up as described appears over complicated but follow it step by step and it works. It took literally 4 minutes to set up which felt far too easy but if even a technophobe like me can get it to work then anyone can. I could have ordered this from an online supplier but if it didn’t work I wanted to be able to return it without the postage hassle. All good so far, I would recommend!

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.

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.
Hello there,
No, the TP-Link TL-WA850RE 300Mbps Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender does not have to stay plugged in directly next to your router permanently, but you do need to plug it near the router during the very first 2-minute setup.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hello John,
Yes, this setup will work, but you need to flip your wiring plan backward for it to work correctly.
The TP-Link TL-WA850RE Range Extender does feature a built-in Ethernet port.
