[Query] TL-WA750RE, TL-WA850RE and RE200
2015-05-21 08:59:03
Region : India

Model : TL-WA850RE

Hardware Version : Not Clear

Firmware Version :

ISP : BSNL


I am using an EVDO connection from BSNL which has a maximum download speed of 3.1 Mbps on TL-MR3420. Now, I want to extend the range of my Wi-Fi network throughout my house.
So, out of these three range extenders: TL-WA750RE, TL-WA850RE and RE200, what is the difference among them?

What is the difference between 150 Mbps, 300 Mbps and 750 Mbps?
I use TL-MR3420 which is a 300 Mbps router, so, should I buy TL-WA850RE since it is also 300 Mbps?
Will 300 Mbps one have more coverage expansion than 150 Mbps?

Please help me out with my queries. Thanks!

RE200 is a dual band range extender.
150 Mbps and 300 Mbps refers to the maximum wireless link speed. Since your router is a 300Mbps one, WA850RE should be better compared with WA750RE.

Is there any benefit of using a dual band range extender? Please elaborate.

Your main router supports 2.4GHz band only, right? The benefit is that RE200 can extend 2.4GHz and broadcast 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi at the same time.
So if your wireless clients supports 5GHz band, you will be able to access internet connecting to RE200's 5GHz Wi-Fi.
If you want to know differences between 2.4GHz and 5GHz, search it online.
