It does not have a cord, it plugs directly into an outlet like a nightlight
It automatically creates a new network named yournetwork + "_EXT"
It's smaller than I thought, about the size of 3 stacked packs of post-it notes
If you use your internet everyday for school or work, slow speeds speeds can be detrimental. This completely fixed the issue for me. The most $20 has every improved my life. Other more expensive models probably have some features this doesn't, but if you just want to fix dead zones for not much money, this is the answer.

I originally looked into purchasing the Ring brand Wifi extended, but it was 50 bucks and it was ONLY for Ring products. I thought it would help to have a Wifi extender to connect to all my other devices, so I scoured Amazon to find a cheaper one.
I am technologically literate in many areas, but connectivity and networks are NOT one of those areas. I was concerned that I would have to hire a techy person to come help me, but surprisingly, it was very easy to set up and connect with my current AT&T Uverse router.
I did run into a bit of a problem, as my Ring Doorbell was still showing a weak signal. I fiddled around with the Ring and realized that this extended had created a new network for me to connect to - it was my network name with "-EXT" at the end. I reconnected the Ring to THAT network - my password was the same and everything - and NOW my Ring Doorbell works PERFECT!
This extender is great and does exactly what I need.
I also noticed on the box that there is a phone number to call for 24/7 tech support, which is very handy to have!
I highly recommend it if you just need a boost in signal to reach certain devices or reach devices that are too far away from your router.
It took maybe 2 minutes to set up, the hardest part was getting it out of the box! It amplifies the signal perfectly, and I find that it actually makes my wifi faster, as less people are using it!
HouseWifi is my normal wifi signal in my room and the HouseWifi_EXT is the extenders wifi signal in my room. Look at the difference!
I will be convincing my family to buy these for the farther parts of the house. In love!!

1) Do you even need a device to increase the range of your wifi?
a) If you're not getting a good enough wifi coverage at your home, first thing you need to do is to figure out the optimum place for the router. It should be at the centre of your home and away from electronics such as microwave. There are plenty of videos regarding this on youtube, so I won't be wasting your time here.
b) If that doesn't solve your problem, invest in a decent router. I for one, use iBall Baton iB-WRD12EN 1200M router, which was the cheapest dual band router at the time I bought it. I got it for ₹999, which is a steal for that router. There are many more routers out there, some are better than this one so, choose according to your need and budget.
c) If you are still facing issues regarding the range, you should continue reading.
2) Range Extender or Access Point ?
There are two options by which you can increase the range of your wifi network. Both of these have some pros and cons as follows :
a) Range Extender
Pros: It is very easy to install, it takes hardly 5 minutes. It doesn't take much space. There's no hassle of running a cable from router to the range extender.
Cons: There is some drop in speed, which is to be expected. There's also a slight increase in latency, which is hardly noticeable if there are less number of devices connected to the range extender.
b) Access Point
Pros: No drop in speed, negligible increase in latency as the connection is wired.
Cons: Running a cable from router to the Access Point is quite a hassle.
Without a doubt, an Access Point is much better than a Range Extender. Nowadays, most of the routers come with an Access Point mode, too. But if you're like me who doesn't like the hassle of installing an Access Point and is perfectly fine with a slight decrease in speed (depending on how you position the range extender) then sure, you should pick a Range Extender.
3) Now, after you've bought a Range Extender, (let's assume this one) it's time to set it up. Upon reading the reviews, I chose to set it up via the browser method as it is the most effective one. You just need to follow simple instructions.
4) Now comes the tricky part, the placement of the Range Extender.
You should place your range extender in such a place that it catches a good signal and it distributes it to the desired place in your home. Use an extension cable and run speed tests by placing the Range Extender in most likely places where there's good wifi coverage. You can use wifi analysing apps to find out the spots of good wifi coverage, too. If there isn't a power outlet at the optimum location, invest in one. Let me tell you what I did. I live in a duplex home. My router is downstairs, so there was absolutely no signal in upper bedrooms. I relocated the router by mounting it at the top centre of the ground floor and placed the Range Extender exactly above it but at 3-4 feet height from the ground of the second floor. The distance between the two is hardly 6 feet. I have a 50 mbps connection and I get 30+ mbps speed from the Range Extender which is to be expected. I have attached screenshots for reference. There's no way the Range Extender will give the full speed. It's not logically possible.
5) My experience with this Range Extender:
It's been more than 2 months since I started using this device. Throughout this period, I didn't encounter any deal breaking problems at all. On one occasion, my phone refused to connect to it, but upon restarting it, the issue didn't resurface. Apart from that, it's been a fantastic experience. The wifi signal range is also really good. There's a one more version of this Range Extender with the internal antennae. Apart from that the two are basically same, internal hardware- wise. I bought this because of the external antennae. If you're concerned more about the aesthetics, then go for the other one, it's TL-WA850RE.
To conclude, I would like to say that if you need to extend the wifi coverage in your home, you should consider an Access Point primarily. If the simplicity of a Range Extender outweighs its flaws for you, only then you should consider it. To be honest, I think all these Range Extenders don't deserve their price tags. For example, this model should've been priced at somewhere around ₹800.
Nonetheless, I hope this helped you to make your decision. Have a nice day !
Edit:- In the month of July 2021, there was some electricity maintenance work going on in my area. Now, ideally during such programs, one should switch off any electronic appliances in his home. I forgot that. Suddenly, for about 10 minutes the voltage reached approximately 800 volts which should've melted the innards of this device. But surprisingly, it was working, just not in a good way. There were frequent disconnections. I raised a replacement request to TP - Link and was given a brand new replacement device on the same day! Now that's what you call an after sales service.

I've had a D-link extender before this one, which was a nightmare to set up. It was complicated and I had to do a bunch of manual settings in order to get the desired result. It was even having an IP address conflict with the base router. What kind of poor design is that? I have a master's degree in computer science. I can't imagine what non-computer-sciency people would do.
I'm pretty happy with this device. Giving it four stars, because I don't know how the range compares to others in the market.

Por el excelente precio, realice una segunda compra, no obstante el repetidor que me llegó no es el mismo que se muestra en las fotos (el de la primer compra si lo es, en la segunda compra no), sin embargo tiene las mismas características y es la misma marca, probablemente sea el mismo modelo pero actualizado, aunque no me termino de convencer el diseño, es algo más redondeado y las antenas solo permiten bajarse o subirse, no movimiento lateral, a diferencia del de la foto que si lo permite, es un detalle mínimo y el dispositivo está funcionando a la perfección y son detalles que no me afectan, una compra que sigue siendo muy recomendada.

Pros:-
1. Easy to install.
Cons:-
1. Wifi speed drops significantly. I use my main router on a second floor and i have 50Mbps plan. Even the weakest signal from my main router gives a speed of around 15-18mbps on first floor of my home. When I connect to this device, I only get a speed of 1.5 - 2 mbps at same spot.(extender was also installed at the same spot).
2. It also drops your wifi connection frequently. Even if only 1-2 devices are connected. I have experienced even in 1meter range of this device.
Overall: product is not worth it.
