TL-WA1201 AC1200Mbps Dual-Band Access Point, Supports Passive PoE, Gigabit Port for Wired Devices, Supports Access Point, Range Extender, Multi-SSID, and Client modes, Boosted Coverage

Used this to replace an old BT-Hub3 that kept dropping the wifi connection. This unit is excellent value, went for the 1200 as for the small price difference it was the most powerful one (1200 is the amount of square feet it covers). I now get good signal (50%) in the furthest part of the house where before I didn’t get any signal. I did read somewhere that the wifi units with external (not outside but sticking out of the unit) antennas are better than the ones with internal antennas and this one has four externals. As mine is in the loft its not going to be seen anyway. Very easy to install, especially as my setup was the default setup for the unit. There are other ways you can set it up and full instructions are included, access to the settings allows you to change how it is used. It can extend the existing wifi via cable or wirelessly, but I used it as a separate access point hardwired back to the main BT Hub as it is about 25m away (in a static a caravan as we are self-building). It does not come with Ethernet ports to add devices, just the one to connect it to a router/modem, so I also purchased a TP-Link 16 port, 10/100mbps, metal case switch unit which was also very good value (£28) and works superbly for my Ethernet circuits, mainly supplying streaming TV’s, but thats another review. At the moment the wifi unit is also connected to the switch and although it works fine I intend to wire separate Ethernet circuits back to the main hub, one for the wifi and one for the switch, mainly just because I can and not because i need to. Test results for the TP-Link wifi was 243ms response time / 4.4mbps download and the same test done directly at the main BT hub gave 225ms response time / 4.5mbps download, so hardly any difference and certainly not enough to notice.

After an upgrade to my broadband service I wasn't getting the full benefits of the wi-fi speed throughout the flat, I already had a wired network installed with a wi-fi access point but this was old tech that didn't cut the mustard. This item was purchased as an upgrade and worked brilliantly, providing full speed wireless signals to all but the oldest devices. An essential piece of kit if you want really good wifi access throughout your property. It will also work as a wi-fi repeater if you don't have a wired connection point away from your main router but this has not been tested by myself so unable to vouch for it's effectiveness. Thoroughly recommended for its ease of installation and effectiveness.

I tried this after using the EAP range for years as I needed a unit to sit under a counter in a cafe, it is very simple to setup, plug into the Router/Switch, find the IP address from the assigned DHCP, type in the IP address into a browser, and its all guided from then on. Range is good, covered the whole floor plus above, the features is very limited when compared to the EAP range, just Range extender, Access Point, but does the job well if you are looking for something simple and cheap.

I bought this to be an access point used with a switch in the bedroom. Great speeds, easy to set up and connect to. I’ve never had any issues with connectivity. Bit plasticky, but I’ve had no issues with build quality. Overall great router that gives good value.

Bought this because our garden room only had an ethernet cable but no WiFi. Plugged it in and it just works straight out the box. We can now get 350mb/sec. No app setup required, just punch in the password and off you go

We have a Virgin Superhub 3 that was connected to a number of Devolo power line devices which usually worked but struggled ‘handing over’ from one repeater to the next. I looked at Mesh systems but in my view they are still expensive - my existing Devolo devices are supposed to have a ‘mesh’ mode. The Virgin hub comes in for a lot of criticism but I have found the hard wired Ethernet ports work 99.9% of the time, these are connected to a PC and a Mac. So I thought surely I can extend my wifi network using these and after some research realised Access Points do exactly this so I decided to make some changes! I decided to install a couple of AP’s, one in the loft and the other near the end of an extension in our fair sized (170m2) solid brick 70’s house. Cabling took some time but is a ‘diy’ task. The PoE facility is really useful as for the loft I could use the Ethernet cable to power the AP without needing a separate power point. I configured as described in the easy start guide and used the SSID of our old network. I then turned off the wifi broadcast of the virgin hub - not putting it in modem mode as this disables the Ethernet ports. It all works great! I don’t get hung up on measuring speeds - although I can get 200Mbps sometimes - the max offered by my Virgin hub, websites, WhatsApps and streaming boxes all work pretty well all the time. The loft AP covers all upstairs and most of downstairs, the other AP the back of the downstairs and the extension. If you are up for a bit of cabling this should answer many wifi issues. Postscript. A little over a year later and after adding a third access point one occasionally fails. TP-Link products have two year warranty and tech support agreed they would supply a replacement. Bizarrely they say they can no longer source these although on the website it highlights NEW and it is still a current product. TP Link asked me for a suggested alternative - I pointed out as the experts shouldn't they recommend. However they went on to propose a TP-Link camera or a lightbulb (?). I am still a great fan of the TP-Link products as they work seamlessly 99% of the time but am bemused with their support response. Thankfully Amazon customer support came to my rescue. A 10-15 web chat agreed a new unit dispatched to me for next day delivery without charge and a label to return the offending item. Well done Amazon customer support.

Espectacular , lo compré para la planta de arriba , más concretamente para mi cuarto por qué no llegaba ningún tipo de señal , ya que el wifi está en la planta de abajo en la otra punta . Bien pues compré este dispositivo conecte un cable ethernet al wifi de abajo y el otro al tplink que estaba en mi cuarto y funciona espectacularmente bien , no pierde ni un mega y en ocasiones hasta coge más señal que el de abajo , ahora puedo jugar a mi Playstation y PC con una rapidez espectacular , y encima da wifi a toda la planta de arriba , de los mejores productos que he comprado .

Rien a dire, c'est parfait !

Used to connect wirelessly my Hikvision NVR to my home network (i don't want cables installed in between). For the moment i have access to my NVR, without any trouble. Distance from home router is about 2..3 meters, both 2.4 and 5GHz bands set.

PRODOTTO VALIDO.
