Hi all

 

I always suspected my MR600 had a very low Wi-Fi power. I tried changing it by menu, but it doesn't change...

Recently, I bought a TL-WA850RE extender and I noticed that the power is almost 20dB higher! Why???...

  @Datman. 

 

Hi, is the transmit power set on "High" on the MR600 WiFi settings page? and may I know how you tested the wifi power with and without the extender?

Please share with us some screenshot as well.

Hi

I tested low, mid, hi power some time ago and I noticed no differences by WiFi Analyzer on Android phone or Windows 10 PC...

The same WiFi Analyzer shows the WA850 signal about 20dB higher.

I'll post some pictures.

I have the same problem. My neighbors wifi is stronger than the wifi from my MR600, and he is 30m away.

Hi, may I know the wired speed and 2.4GHz/5GHz wireless speed you get from the MR600 on the same client device at same location, is there a big difference?
