The TP Link RE 315 is an AC 1200 mesh Wi-Fi range extender. Sadly there is a catch, although TP-Link specifies that this repeater works with "any router" and that it has a "WiFi roaming" that will seamlessly connect your devices coming from the original WiFi network, it actually doesn't do that. The "roaming" is actually the mesh system, yet again the TP-Link uses their own TP-Link OneMesh protocol, which again only works just on **some of their own routers! So to say it in short if you want "WiFi roaming" this will only work with just some of the TP-Link routers. This is a real con as for instance the much more cheaper Xiaomi Repeater PRO will genuinely do "WiFi roaming" with **any existing router regardless of it's brand, model or protocol. On the pro side the RE 315 is very fast and really provides a great WiFi signal boost, but so does the Xiaomi Repeater PRO.

Good preview video of the hardware and software.
Shame you didn't do a range check or speed test within the video.
I was kind of disappointed with the lacking of "WiFi roaming" so ended the review early without further testing...
Will this give me signal out on the basement patio, I'm only getting "Fair" signal right now, but if I walk inside it switches to "Good" signal, so I have an outlet right where it switches to "Good" so I'm hoping plugging the extender in at that outlet would extend it out on the patio to "Good" is that correct? Basement is 1300 sq ft, so hoping it will cover it all.
My Telstra Smart Modem2 does NOT support Mesh.
Do I need Mesh to create a Hard Wired Ethernet Access Point with the TP Link RE315?
Will it work doing that? I'm hoping to have 100% WiFi signal broadcast from the Access Point (so as to extend the WIfi coverage)
Thanks for the informative video.
Thank you !
You're welcome! I'm glad that you have found my video useful.
Registration OK trouble getting in on the extenders code keeps telling me I need 15 letters numbers won’t let me in
Check your security measures and password.
If i use this with a non-mesh router (Plusnet Hub 2) do I have to manually connect?
Yes, you will have to select the "extended wifi" manually. It will be like having another extra different WiFi network.
Well done tutorial. I'm wondering if I can replace my Verizon router with a mesh router? After doing do I would plan to f=get an extender.
Depends on your router type, you need to check if it's fiber link, or PPOE connected so you can find a router compatible with it.
@@TechTronic9000 Thanks for the reply and information. I'm sure it's not a fiber link. So I'll investigate from there
I just have a question for this item I just got it today and tried it and wifi is fast enough but if I use a lan cable it only speed up to 100mbps which is half of the speed and if I go to setting it says its max 100mbps I dont know how to change this set uo
That is because the LAN port only supports 10/100M, it doesn't have gigabit capability.
@@TechTronic9000 no cuz even with the same lan cable the speed goes up to 300mbps with my old extender but this one .. and also it says 100mbps max on the setting.. please help thx..
Mine won’t connect to 5Ghz is there a way to fix it? I tried resetting it and setting it up again but nothing, please reply 🙏🏼
Check your router first for 5G bands, latest firmware, etc.
We have 100 Mbps internet but the modem is in the hall. My room is at the back so there is no internet access. We got Xiaomi's Wi-Fi booster too. I have internet in my room but I can only get 10-15 Mbps. There are many ping problems in games, especially in Valorant. This Wi-Fi booster is deploying 2.4GHz. I wonder if I would benefit from buying this 5GHz TP-Link RE315?
You can also get the newer Xiaomi repeater with dual 2.4/5 GHz wireless, you can find my review for it on my channel.
So it doesn’t do WiFi roaming. So why does it say mesh ?
It can only do mesh together with a proprietary TP Link router from a dedicated range of model series.
Can i use only the 2.4Ghz?
Yes, it can work on 2.4 without any problems.
@@TechTronic9000 thanks. So i can set this to 2.4ghz?
@@kabisayagoYes you can configure both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands
@@TechTronic9000 thanks
does this extender works on any other router brands like ASUS?
Yes it works but as a regular repeater it will not work in mesh mode or roaming mode.
Coplicated how not
