The build quality is good AVM usual, the plastic casing precisely and without protruding ends. Prima is the low power consumption of an average of two watts.
The connection (in this case with an AVM Fritz! Box 7390) is within two minutes completed (WPS quick connection). For this, the WPS function must be enabled, a WPA or WPA2 encryption available, the WLAN radio network (SSID) visible and the MAC filter disabled.
AVM typical is also available for Repeater software with which you can configure it manually, it is also comfortable through a browser. Within the repeater can also be the time setting to make, to which it is active (takes, if any, this also from the Fritz! Box) awarded its own name for better identification - own password as well - and prioritize many other details (IPTV Set), to firmware updates.
Another practical feature is the signal strength indicator (which, like the other LEDs can be switched off), thus it is largely about the condition in the picture.
Note should be, that is halved in principle with wireless connections that are produced (with all other repeaters) on the FRITZ! WLAN Repeater to the base station the data throughput. For surfing, e-mail, VPN, this represents no disadvantage as well as a wireless connection with half the data throughput is significantly faster than a traditional Internet connection. However, you should reconsider a network connection via WLAN, if necessary, if one has prior backups etc. make it.
Hopefully soon AVM provides also a repeater with combined 2.4 GHz / 5 GHz wireless networks, since the 2.4 GHz network is partly already heavily burdened and 5 GHz WLAN devices more and more are coming.
In terms of performance this Repeater offers everything you would expect including a stable compound even at high load and small dimensions. The requested price is to be considered in relation to the performance offered a fair price.
