Model: TL-WR700N  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version:

Hello, comunity

 

Current situation:

 

At home I have wireless router: TL-WR1043ND and, as extender, I have TL-WR710N.

 

Issue that I have:

extender is not working properly for some reason in the last mont. At the begining it worked properly, without any issue and I had decent wireless signal strength trought extender. Now I'm not able to get anymore signal. I have a concrete wall that signal of extender is suppose to pass.

 

Questions:

- do I need to buy another wireless extender?

- would you recommend a more powerful extender? Please give me an option 

 

Thanks,

Paul

Hi, you could try to reset it to factory defaults and follow this guide to set up the repeater mode again: How to configure the Repeater Mode on the TL-WR710N

 

If it still doesn't work, since this model is quite old and you could consider purchasing a new extender by using filters to choose a proper model: 

WiFi Booster - Wireless and WiFi Range Extender - TP-Link

Thanks for info.

 

I've tried factory reset already without success, or is working properly but only for a short period of time.

 

From filter mentioned below, what you recommend?

 

I'm interested to buy best value for money, because I need only to extend for phone usage. No TV, no game station. Only multiple phones will use extended signal (3 to 5 phones)

 

Thanks

Paul

I mean filters like the screenshot below, you could choose proper models based on your own needs
