Product Information

Full details

The TP-Link RE450 AC1750 Wi-Fi Range Extender is designed for users experiencing Wi-Fi dead zones or weak signals in their homes or offices. Its key benefit is expanding existing Wi-Fi coverage using advanced AC1750 dual-band technology for faster speeds. A potential caveat is that optimal placement is crucial for maximum performance, which the Intelligent Signal Light feature helps address. Key features include simultaneous 450Mbps on 2.4GHz and 1300Mbps on 5GHz, a Gigabit Ethernet port for wired connections, three adjustable external antennas for improved coverage, and compatibility with any Wi-Fi router, including EasyMesh-compatible ones.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

How do I reset the TP-Link RE450 to factory defaults?

Press and hold the Reset button on the extender for about 10 seconds until the LEDs change. The extender will reboot with its factory default settings.

Can I change the Wi-Fi name (SSID) and password of the extended network?

Yes, you can configure the SSID and password for the extended network through the TP-Link Tether App or the web-based management interface. It can be set to be the same as your router's or a different one.

What is the maximum theoretical Wi-Fi speed?

The RE450 supports AC1750 speeds, which means a theoretical maximum of 450Mbps on the 2.4GHz band and 1300Mbps on the 5GHz band, for a combined total of 1750Mbps.

Does the RE450 work with any Wi-Fi router?

Yes, the RE450 is designed to work with any standard 802.11a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi router or access point.

How does the Intelligent Signal Light help?

The LED indicator on the front of the extender shows the signal strength between the RE450 and your main router. A blue light indicates a strong connection, while a red light means you should move it closer to the router for better performance.

What are the power requirements for the RE450?

The RE450 requires an AC power input of 100-240V, 50/60Hz. Its maximum power consumption is approximately 10W.

Can I use the Ethernet port to connect to my router instead of wirelessly?

No, the Ethernet port on the RE450 is designed to connect a wired device *to* the Wi-Fi network. The connection between the RE450 and your main router is always wireless.

Troubleshooting

The extender won't connect to the router.

Ensure you are within range of the router and using the correct Wi-Fi password. Try moving the extender closer to the router during setup. Restart both the router and the extender.

The Wi-Fi signal is still weak or unstable.

Reposition the extender; use the Intelligent Signal Light to find a better location. Ensure the extender is not placed near devices that cause interference (e.g., microwaves, cordless phones). Adjust the external antennas.

Cannot access the internet after connecting.

Verify that the extender is connected to your main router. Ensure the DHCP server on your main router is enabled. Try resetting the extender to factory defaults and reconfiguring it.

The Gigabit Ethernet port is not working.

Use a known working Ethernet cable. Ensure the device connected to the port is powered on and configured for network connectivity. Restart the extender.

The Tether App cannot find the extender.

Ensure your smartphone/tablet is connected to the RE450's default Wi-Fi network during setup. Make sure Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are enabled on your mobile device.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:
