The TP-Link TL-WA801N Wi-Fi N Access Point is designed to establish or expand a 300 Mbps WiFi N network or to connect multiple Ethernet-enabled devices such as game consoles, digital media adapters, printers or network-attached storage devices to a Wi-Fi network. The Access Point supports a multitude of different features that make your wireless networking experience more flexible than ever. Now you can enjoy a better Internet experience when downloading, playing games, streaming video or any other application you want to use.

Adopting advanced IEEE 802.11n Multi Input Multi Output (MIMO) technology, it works simultaneously via two Tx and Rx antennas to overcome interference and signal degradation when travelling long distances or across physical barriers in a small office or large flat, resulting in an incredible improvement in WiFi performance, even in a steel and concrete building.
The TP-LINK TL-WA801N supports multiple operating modes (Access Point, Multi-SSID, Client, Range Extender) to enable various Wi-Fi applications to give users a more dynamic and comprehensive experience when using their access points. Several operating modes also help you easily create a Wi-Fi network for hard-to-wire locations or eliminate the Wi-Fi white zone.


The TL-WA801N can be powered using an Ethernet cable to simultaneously send data and power anywhere your access point may be located. This feature multiplies your options allowing you to place the access point in the most convenient position to get the best possible signal, such as on the wall or ceiling of your office.

I'd recommend this product
Works very well and is easy to set up. Doesn't take up too much space and is easy to wall-mount.
What the description doesn't emphasise: the RJ port on this product is limited to 100 Mbps, which theoretically limits Wi-Fi to 100 Mbps when the device is configured as an 'Access Point' (connected to the Ethernet for Wi-Fi broadcasting).
To find out how fast Wi-Fi really is, I carried out tests by connecting the TP-Link directly to a port on the box and standing next to it. The measured speed (using Speedtest on my mobile phone, which was the only device connected to the network) was 40 Mbps. Several tests at different times and on different dates gave the same result.
Very pleased. Installed in my workshop at the bottom of the garden as an access point, it's easy to set up and configure. It also comes with a passive Poe injector if you need one.
Like all TP-LINK products, this WIFI access point takes just 5 minutes to set up.
Good coverage for domestic use, and excellent reliability.
Following a "phantom" delivery by Amazon, fortunately reimbursed a week later, I immediately chose LDLC, with whom I am also a customer, and I was not disappointed.
Delivery to Vinzelles within one working day, a friendly and dynamic team at the point of sale near Mâcon, impeccable service, I can only recommend LDLC to whom I have been loyal as well as Materiel.net for nearly 15 years.
