TL-WA850RE specifications

The TP-Link TL-WA850RE is a versatile and reliable Wi-Fi range extender designed to enhance and extend the coverage of your existing wireless network. Offering a seamless solution for those struggling with dead zones in their home or office, this device is an excellent choice for ensuring a strong and stable internet connection throughout your space.

One of the main features of the TL-WA850RE is its ability to eliminate Wi-Fi dead spots. By receiving the existing Wi-Fi signal from your router and amplifying it, this range extender effectively expands your wireless network to reach areas that are otherwise difficult to access. This makes it ideal for larger homes, or multi-story buildings where obstacles such as walls and floors can weaken the Wi-Fi signal.

The TL-WA850RE is equipped with a user-friendly interface and a compact design. The device plugs directly into a wall outlet, requiring no additional cables, making installation a breeze. With its smart signal indicator, users can easily find the optimal placement for the extender—ensuring it is positioned to receive a strong signal from the router while still extending coverage where needed.

Another noteworthy feature is the extender's compatibility with various Wi-Fi standards. Supporting 802.11n, 802.11g, and 802.11b, the TL-WA850RE offers a maximum wireless speed of 300 Mbps, making it suitable for buffering videos, online gaming, and other bandwidth-heavy activities. Its dual antennas provide robust coverage, ensuring a strong connection even at greater distances from the router.

Security is also a key consideration with the TL-WA850RE. It supports several encryption methods, including WEP, WPA/WPA2, and WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK. This means that users can secure their extended Wi-Fi network with the same robust protocols utilized by their primary router, safeguarding personal data and connected devices.

Overall, the TP-Link TL-WA850RE stands out as a reliable solution for anyone looking to enhance their wireless network. With its easy setup, compatibility with older Wi-Fi standards, strong performance, and solid security features, this range extender is a practical choice for achieving uninterrupted connectivity in any environment.
