After I had around annoyed with the TP-Link TL-WA850RE six months (continuous disconnections, paralyze the whole system, faulty DHCP), I decided, again to spend some more money and try something new. I need the repeater in my apartment (85m²) as streaming HD video to multiple devices (RPI) by a plurality of walls, thanks to the leistungsbeschnittenen router (thanks, German legislature) repeatedly led to hangers or even crashes. The installation of the repeater goes quite quickly, even if you initially vain in the user manual for the default WiFi password investigated (00000000, by default, the default setting). I never read manuals and that would have been the only information that would interest me. I did not like, crouching to a wired laptop on the floor, make the establishment. The code is the way directly to the small base of the unit. WPS I have not tried, I set my stuff rather itself a.
Once logged in to the router, connect the router to work without problems. The configuration menu is typical FRITZ reduced to the bare minimum for the standard user. Well, with DD-WRT one can also play something broken. The basic functions are available in any case. The network is well spread out and the stream works. While this device is already priced high-class, but one lives perhaps a little longer by saving blown nervous at cheap devices.
Why 4 stars? The design of the device is not thought out. If you operate the unit on a double outlet in the wall, and also still used the LAN link, hidden one each other outlet. Better would have been to the LAN jack to accommodate the antenna side. This site is so or so paralyzed for other devices
