Very helpful. My modem doesn't have a WPS button, so I was glad to see this tutorial on how to do a manual setup. It actually gives you a lot more control.
Thanks for your how-to videos 👍🏻 I connected my tplink 1750 router with your video, I admit I really really don't know anything about tech stuff no matter how easy it is. But with your step by step video it just made it easier. Thanks again, keep up the good work 👍🏻
Excellent video, with all information and real test, not like other just a "manual of how to install". In 8:23, just remember (keep in mind) that TP-Link RE220 (and most of cheaper repeater) has a Interface 10/100M Ethernet Port (RJ45), so the wired connection never pass 100 Mbps! For this, it's necessary a 1000Mbps port (Gigabit) in more modern router/repeater, as you explain afterwards. It will nice if you can do a video with a 1000Mbps port (Gigabit) repeater, to show the final speed with this port in a repeater :)
Great explanation, the only thing I don’t understand is here 3:23 Why you change IP address? Do I need to do that too with same number or any numbers .... thanks .
Thanks, you don't have to change the IP address, by default it "obtains an IP address automatically", however, this automatic IP address might change from time to time, so I personally prefer to give it a permanent static IP address, this IP address will not change and I can easily remember and use it to access the repeater. Just keep in mind the static IP address has to be an unused IP in your network, in my case I used 192.168.1.253 because I know no other device is using it. Thanks.
@@Behfor I see , thanks man , great timing my repeater just arrived , I will watch more of your videos to learn more , you have easy way of explaining keep up the good work
Thank you for this review video!! I am currently in the market for a wifi extender for my houses wifi. And not only did you explain everything but also showed different settings to see how good the speed you can get. So thank you for your video. I was looking at this on amazon as i found it for $22.
Great video. Subbed for the one mesh video. Just bought an A9 which while seemingly more reliable, it sadly has a notably shorter range than my Netgear AC1750v2.
Something I learned: only the A6 and A7 have one mesh. The A9 doesn't and any request to when that will be added is given the option to return their A9 or other router and to buy one with support. Sounds like the higher, older models aren't getting it. Lame
please fast make a video about tp link onemesh .. im waiting for it. i have tp-link one mesh router now should i buy a re200/re220 mesh repeater for gaming? I'm so confused . in the 1st-floor wifi frequency is good but on the 2nd-floor I'm facing a lag problem for ping issue. so should I setup this repeater for solving the ping issue?
That video was made a long time ago!! Infact right after this video! That's why I suggest you activate the bell notification. Why don't you check out the video description of this video for the link to the OneMesh video
Good day I have followed every step and it works perfectly I just don't get internet connection the error I get is the WiFi connection says no internet connection is there anything I can do I even changed the IP address
I didn't understand the video very much so I have one question for you. If I connect an ethernet cable to the TP-LINK RE200, will the internet have the same speed or will the internet be slower?
really really helpful, thanks man! just one question, did you know what was the speed of the pc directly connected to the wireless router by the ethernet cable? or the speed your provider is supposedly giving to you?
Thanks, glad you liked the video. If you are asking the speed of Ethernet connection of that computer, it was 1 Gbps. The speed of Internet provider does not matter here because the speed test I did in the video was between 2 local computers. Thanks

Will it work and Where should I connect the repeater in my house to get TH-cam in the rooms on 3 rd floor pls and what 2 radio should I use?. Thank you
Hello sir thank you for the explanations. I want to ask one thing about this: -My ip camera upstairs 3rd floor of house always lose connection. Can i put this extender up there and cable connect it to the camera??
Yes, if the camera is wireless and wired, then you should be able to connect it with an Ethernet cable tot he repeater ( it should be possible, unless the camera system has a limitation) thanks.
ok so i recently put my xbox in my room upstairs lately and i have been getting bad lag and my latency has beeen bad i’m using wireless upstairs. when i was downstairs using wired i would not get lag at all and it would run smooth. what do you recommend for me to get to experience my downstairs gaming while i’m still staying upstairs? thx
i know its been a while but I have a question, it says the ethernet port is 100mbps limited, I want to use the extender as a access point, I have a gigabit wifi but atm I'm only getting 50 mbps using it as a repeater if I use it as a access point will I be limited to 100mbps?
@@Behfor Am I misunderstanding something here? Isn't the Ethernet port only 100mbps? How can the transmission rate be better if the ethernet port's capacity is so much smaller? Doesn't that mean it can never exceed 100mbps since that's the speed the port is limited to when receiving the wired signal?
Brilliant video! Rigorous, super clear, and now I fully understand backhaul, dual channel and all that jazz. Sadly my order of this device is now held up by it being out of stock - the price of success, I guess.
I have already wifi cameras connected to my network. Once I start using the extender, do I need to create new networks with a different names and reconnect the cameras? Or can I just select the same name? Is it the same wifi network that the extender is amplifying? If yes, why do you create a different name? I hope I am making sense.
Can you touch on Mesh Network devices that are installed, with Ethernet Backhaul? I've inherited a number of AirTies 4920 devices, and I'm interested in installing & configuring them, so that they can be used as a Mesh Network, rather than as a multi-AP configuration. The environment in-which they'll be used is extremely congested on the 2.4 GHz Band, and the building structure is not conducive to 5 GHz, for the back haul. For those reasons, I'd like to explore deploying the AirTies 4920 devices with Ethernet Backhaul. In that configuration, do the mesh devices synchronize with one another over the Ethernet Backhaul? If so, do they establish a port or 'channel' over the Ethernet connection, to 'talk' with one another? Also, can they retain the host router's I.P. Subnet, or do they establish their own Subnet? I'm trying to avoid any double 'NATing' problems. I enjoy the channel..... Educating & Entertaining. Keep-up the good work! :)
First of all it's not a dumb question. Second of all, if the modem is a modem/router combo device then you can connect the the re220 to it, but if it's just a modem then you can't, because you still need to have a router in your network.
I hv a question can some one please help im going to add this repeater to be used with a smart plug to turn on and off devices from my phone.just my question will be that when i connect my smart plug via repeater and then connect my phone with my main rouer will i be able to turn on and off my smart switch...any help greatly appreciated😢
Hi there, can we type different Ssid for 2.4and 5 channel or we must type SSID same as primary router on tplink Repeater ??or we can choose same as primary router or type different and new Ssid or TP-Link Repeater?? Thnx
Great video . Well made too. I just happened to stumble on this as I`m trying to solve my wifi dead spots.......upstairs. I bought a tp-link Archer VR400 and I`m disappointed with it's wifi range. My house isn't big but has lots of brick walls. My BT home hub was much better. Do you have any advice ?
Hi! I bought TP Link router C6 AC1200 V2.0 (US) and TP Link extender RE200 AC750 V4.0 (UK). Both have OneMesh feature also smart connect. Also both of them upgraded to latest firmware. Now the problem is the RE200 cannot find 5Ghz network from my router. The only way it can if in my router i set the 5Ghz channel to 36/40/44/48. Doing this all my device can find 5G but my Samsung S9 cannot. Anyway you can help me?
Hi, it's probably because 5GHz Wi-Fi channels 149, 153, 157,161 & 165 that are used in US are prohibited in Europe, that's why the devices are not fully compatible with each other. It's always recommended to use the devices that are following your local regulations because otherwise they might put you in trouble! Some channels that are allowed in one country are illegal in another one! That being said, some wireless devices allow you to change the regulatory domain and set it to your country, but I'm not sure about these Tp-Link devices, maybe that'll require a firmware change. Unfortunately I don't have info on that, maybe if you contact TP-link they can give you more info. Thanks.
@@Behfor Thanks the answer! :) So you say that if I add the same name, will my laptop for example pick the best one in signal strength? or will it list both SSIDs and it's up to me to pick up the best one?
It’s simple, first make sure it’s up and running, make sure the wireless name appears on any other device and make sure it’s working, then hop on to your PS4/PS5 and scan for wireless networks, it should appear there. If you want to you can connect it via Ethernet cable. Then go to scan networks and a “wired connection” will appear
Hi ...what if repeat a dual band router using a single band router..thats 5ghz band connected single band router and repeated ... Will this work ..how the speed will be
Hi, you mean the single band router is a 5 GHz router?! I've never seen a single band router that is 5 GHz only, but if there is and can work as a repeater it should work fine, but again it will has the limitations that come with single band repeaters, thanks!
@@Behfor that was my stupidity .. anyhow thanks a lot for your dual band repeater video. I was using a single band router as repeater on a 50 Mbps connection , and the repeater was providing only 15Mbps . Searched everywhere for the reason and clueless But your video was simple and usefull , i bought a dual band router and the problem solved . bought a d-link dual band router , which had a mode as WISP , used the same for repeating and SUCCESS . Thanks a lot for the video , and shared to my friends as max as I could .
thank you very much for this video... i tried the product and set it up... but couldnt connect the next day because the lights were not turning on. pls help me
1- on paper you can connect as many as you want but in reality you shouldn't because wireless is complicated and just randomly adding repeaters would cause interference and it might make your network useless! So for best performance you should know why and where you are adding the repeaters. Obviously adding them as APs is much better than adding them as repeaters. If the setup is done great then the roaming should also be good too.
@@Behfor mine arrived yesterday and through the app I realised I can see who's connected and block any unwanted connections. This extender is a beast. Thank you for the review⚡
I'm not sure what that has got to do with anything here?! The speed tests done in this video has nothing to do with internet speed, I hope that makes sense.
That's possible but only if you use the extender as an Access Point. So you should change it's operation mode and set it up as an AP. FYI an extender/Repeater is a device that connects to the primary router via wireless only, if you use a cable then it's an Access Point.
Hi I the re200 very disappointed to fond out that it doesn't boost my network range it makes another network Could this device work correctly with the same ssid as my router
Tried this unit. Got great signal strength but it sucked at connecting to the internet. Very frustrating so returned it. Read of this same issue in several forums with no known solutions.
Repeater with 2.4 can give you 40 mbps but with 5ghz they give you the full speed from your modem I have old tp link and in my bedroom I have mi router
Yes you can connect it wirelessly or via Ethernet. This is a cheap product so it won’t give you the best speeds but it could work! I suggest something like an av600 or a re650. I use an av600 and connect it via Ethernet to my PS5. It gives me roughly 80mbps. Yes it’s not 100+ but it is VERY STABLE. Ethernet usually gives you faster speeds then wireless
@@Behfor Huawei is ISP locked so can't change the channel. It is using 149. Repeater is not using that channel. So I have put the repeater in high speed mode to use 2.4Ghz to connect to Huawei and transmit only in 5Ghz.
It could be, however for gaming it is best to use wired connection, but if wireless is the only option and you have to use a repeater, then definitely a dual band repeater is better than a single band repeater. thanks
It looks like they are very similar to each other, but one difference that I was able to notice (by looking at the TPLINK website) was that the RE230's transmission power is higher than RE220, so it's possible that the RE230 might have a better range, at least on paper. Thanks.
I have T-Mobile, and if you have not done anything yet, you'd better off getting a TP-Link Deco mesh setup, and only getting something like this, and putting in bridge mode to act as a WiFI adapter for say a desktop without a WiFi connection.

I have a question, how much different is the RE200 from this one?
I think the re220 has cloud management which the re200 doesn't have.
استاد جان ضمن تشکر یه سوال داشتم. آیا ۵جی دریافت میکنه از مودم و از اترنت بده؟
جلوتر توضیح داده بودی. ولی ۲تا کامنت هدیه به شما 😅
Hello sir, how far in meters is the repeater from the router? Thanks.
Hi, about 12 meters or so. Cheers.
Oh, thanks for the quick response, I already buyed it :D
Good luck :)
So what if you want to connect the extender with the router by cable? Is that possible?
That's possible but only if you use the extender as an Access Point. So you should change it's operation mode and set it up as an AP. FYI an extender/Repeater is a device that connects to the primary router via wireless only, if you use a cable then it's an Access Point.
@@Behfor Thanks for your quick reply. I learned something today. Let's see if I can put it in an access point.
You're very welcome and good luck 😀👍
@@Behfor Somehow I'm getting problems. Do I have to set IP-address manually?
I can connect to the AP but it doesn't have internet.
Hi I the re200 very disappointed to fond out that it doesn't boost my network range it makes another network
Could this device work correctly with the same ssid as my router
... no it boosts the range.
What's the range in feet?
Awesome video!! Everything I wanted to know and more.
Thank you!
Glad to hear that! Thanks 😀👍
Tried this unit. Got great signal strength but it sucked at connecting to the internet. Very frustrating so returned it. Read of this same issue in several forums with no known solutions.
Repeater with 2.4 can give you 40 mbps but with 5ghz they give you the full speed from your modem
I have old tp link and in my bedroom I have mi router
got some ElectroBOOM vibes here
whats the difference between this and the re200
I don't have the re200 but I guess it doesn't support Tplink cloud.
can I use it to connect to my PlayStation?
or which other model of TP-link should I get
did u ever find out bro?
Yes you can connect it wirelessly or via Ethernet. This is a cheap product so it won’t give you the best speeds but it could work! I suggest something like an av600 or a re650.
I use an av600 and connect it via Ethernet to my PS5. It gives me roughly 80mbps. Yes it’s not 100+ but it is VERY STABLE. Ethernet usually gives you faster speeds then wireless
So whats really the best option?
why when did i put 192.168.0.254 the page doesn't load?
I have 200 mbps in my router
If Ibuy this is gonna get with 5ghz the full speed if you know?
would this help my wifi on my ps4 I will add a lan cable to the little port
it should be alright, you may want to check out this video though th-cam.com/video/7nQXAALkh_w/w-d-xo.html
Mine is unable to see 5Ghz of my Huawei router but can see 5Ghz of my TP Link ArcherC60. How can I fix it
Maybe the Huawei is using a channel that the repeater doesn't have. I would try channels like 36 or 149 and see if that would fix it or not.
@@Behfor Huawei is ISP locked so can't change the channel. It is using 149. Repeater is not using that channel. So I have put the repeater in high speed mode to use 2.4Ghz to connect to Huawei and transmit only in 5Ghz.
how much could receive a range in meter
Can you create a new, private network with that?
Would this be good to connect it to my pc with.
I suppose so,
Well explained so the wire does not extend beyond 100 mbps I have a 300 mbps plan so wireless is better i guess 👍
This model also have an access point sir?
Yes sir.
How do you connect it to a ps4
is it good for gaming?
It could be, however for gaming it is best to use wired connection, but if wireless is the only option and you have to use a repeater, then definitely a dual band repeater is better than a single band repeater. thanks
Why didn't you test it on onemesh?
I did it in the videos right after this one.
Is the re220 better than the re230
It looks like they are very similar to each other, but one difference that I was able to notice (by looking at the TPLINK website) was that the RE230's transmission power is higher than RE220, so it's possible that the RE230 might have a better range, at least on paper. Thanks.
Will it work with T-Mobile wifi ?
I have T-Mobile, and if you have not done anything yet, you'd better off getting a TP-Link Deco mesh setup, and only getting something like this, and putting in bridge mode to act as a WiFI adapter for say a desktop without a WiFi connection.
Great video !!!
Thanks! :-)
Good job 👍
Thanks 👍
