A WiFi repeater and access point that does its job well
The TP-Link RE450 can be used in three ways:
- As a repeater, i.e. it amplifies the WiFi signal to carry it further into the house.
- As a WiFi access point, in which case it is connected to an RJ45 socket and emits a WiFi signal
- As a remote RJ45 internet socket, in which case it picks up the WiFi signal and transmits the internet signal to its RJ45 socket
For my part, I use it as a WiFi access point, which works very well.
It may take a bit of reading to set it up, but it's not rocket science either.
