Overview
The TP-Link RE815XE is a Wi-Fi 6E range extender that adds tri-band coverage, including a 6 GHz band, to an existing Wi-Fi network. It plugs directly into a wall socket and includes one Ethernet port rated at 1 Gbps.
Who it suits
This extender is suited to households that already have a Wi-Fi 6E router and want to extend 6 GHz coverage to another area of the home. It may also suit users who want to connect a single wired device, such as a games console or smart TV, near the extender.
Reasons to consider it
It supports tri-band operation across 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz, which allows it to extend modern Wi-Fi 6E networks rather than just older bands. It can run in Range Extender or Access Point mode, and the single Ethernet port supports speeds up to 1 Gbps for a wired connection.
Limitations and compatibility checks
There is no wired backhaul option, so the connection back to the main router relies on Wi-Fi rather than an Ethernet link. It has only one Ethernet port and no USB port, and there is no PoE support, so it depends on the wall plug for power.
