  • Mesh

    What is Mesh WiFi?

    Mesh technology eliminates the “dead” spots in the home by creating a single network with the same name (SSID) and password everywhere.

    Why is it important?

    • Automatic switching (Seamless Roaming): As you move around the house, your phone automatically connects to the strongest signal without dropping the connection (e.g. during video calls or gaming).

    • Maximum speed: Unlike simple extenders, Mesh maintains consistently high speeds without losses.

    ***Note: For it to work, your Router must also support the same Mesh technology (e.g. EasyMesh, OneMesh).

  • Maximum WLAN Speed

    Theoretical maximum speed that the repeater can offer cumulatively to connected devices. The maximum speed it can offer to a single device may be lower.

    1500

    The repeater can offer up to 1500Mbps in total to the devices connected to it. In practice, the actual speed shared among devices is closer to 250Mbps. For example, a high-resolution 4K movie requires about 25Mbps. The speed that each connected device will have depends on factors such as distance, obstacles, the number of other devices connected, the presence of other networks in the same area, and so on.

  • Wi-Fi Generation

    The Wi-Fi generation is a user-friendly separation that indicates the capabilities of Wi-Fi devices (maximum wireless connection speed, number of devices that can connect, frequencies they can transmit on).

    Wi‑Fi 6

    The most modern Wi-Fi standard that offers speeds up to 40% faster than Wi-Fi 5. It coordinates communication with connected devices to consume less battery and performs better in environments with multiple Wi-Fi devices. Ideal for homes with many smart devices. Compatible with all devices that support any of the previous generations.

  • LAN Speed

    The speed that the repeater can offer to devices connected to it via ethernet cable. 

    For simple use, this speed does not need to concern you.

    1000 Mbps

    The connection via ethernet cable offers a speed of 1000Mbps (also known as Gigabit), which is the maximum speed that ethernet can support. It is usually encountered in professional environments where the transfer of large files (such as high-definition videos) is a common occurrence, and in repeaters that support corresponding high WLAN speeds.

Each newer generation is compatible with devices that support a previous one.

802.11a

The older Wi-Fi standard is even older than Wi-Fi 4 (IEEE 802.11 b/g/n) which is significantly slower than Wi-Fi 5 (IEEE 802.11ac) and Wi-Fi 6 (IEEE 802.11ax).


All subsequent generations are compatible with devices that support a previous one, so it is recommended that the repeater also supports more modern standards.

Very strong signal boost from 10mbps went to 295 out of 300 line. It has very good automatic reboot scenarios at night and fast Ethernet. Just what you need if you upgrade to fiber

Wrong choice, does not improve the signal. In spaces far from the router, it still has a much better signal and speed than the router from this specific model TP-LINK RE500X. Do not be swayed by the impressive description of the technology features it is supposed to have. Additionally, if your router does not support Mesh network, this model operates like the other cheaper models of the company without any difference at all.

    This review is about the network version: v2

    I am on the ground floor, the router is on the first floor. I tried it in various spots around the house, the best was roughly in the center, it gives about a 10-15% boost but it is not stable because many times the speed drops and it's like it doesn't even exist....
    Price is steep for what it offers.
    It went back in the box, because it was opened and Skroutz does not accept returns for this product once opened; if you buy it, you have to connect it magically with the package closed!?
    In the end, money wasted.

    I got it to bring wifi internet through the ethernet port to a desktop computer. As a network, its wifi doesn't reach very far. Better, in fact, is the simple tp link at 18 euros with only 2.4. I wanted something better for gaming with ms and got this. Compared to a cable, it's 5-10 ms higher but has no other issues. Also, as a package, it is quite bulky

    It is an amazing product that provides signal to a 150 sqm house easily. It needs to be placed at a good distance to communicate with the router. It is worth the money due to its features as it is advanced in technology.

Mesh

What is Mesh WiFi?

Mesh technology eliminates the “dead” spots in the home by creating a single network with the same name (SSID) and password everywhere.

Why is it important?

  • Automatic switching (Seamless Roaming): As you move around the house, your phone automatically connects to the strongest signal without dropping the connection (e.g. during video calls or gaming).

  • Maximum speed: Unlike simple extenders, Mesh maintains consistently high speeds without losses.

***Note: For it to work, your Router must also support the same Mesh technology (e.g. EasyMesh, OneMesh).

Very strong signal boost from 10mbps went to 295 out of 300 line. It has very good automatic reboot scenarios at night and fast Ethernet. Just what you need if you upgrade to fiber

Wrong choice, does not improve the signal. In spaces far from the router, it still has a much better signal and speed than the router from this specific model TP-LINK RE500X. Do not be swayed by the impressive description of the technology features it is supposed to have. Additionally, if your router does not support Mesh network, this model operates like the other cheaper models of the company without any difference at all.

    This review is about the network version: v2

    I am on the ground floor, the router is on the first floor. I tried it in various spots around the house, the best was roughly in the center, it gives about a 10-15% boost but it is not stable because many times the speed drops and it's like it doesn't even exist....
    Price is steep for what it offers.
    It went back in the box, because it was opened and Skroutz does not accept returns for this product once opened; if you buy it, you have to connect it magically with the package closed!?
    In the end, money wasted.

    2 and a half months, so far no problems and no need for any restart after the initial setup, I use it with an ethernet cable for the PC and the internet has never dropped, very positive.

    I had the TP-LINK TL-WA860RE v6 which was only single band and gave me 50-70 with very high latency, with this the difference is noticeable since I get 99 to 105 and much lower latency

    I got it to bring wifi internet through the ethernet port to a desktop computer. As a network, its wifi doesn't reach very far. Better, in fact, is the simple tp link at 18 euros with only 2.4. I wanted something better for gaming with ms and got this. Compared to a cable, it's 5-10 ms higher but has no other issues. Also, as a package, it is quite bulky

    It is an amazing product that provides signal to a 150 sqm house easily. It needs to be placed at a good distance to communicate with the router. It is worth the money due to its features as it is advanced in technology.

    It seems to frequently lose the signal and it is unknown whether it is solely due to the router.
