Model: RE450  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hi all hope is all is well  I have a question regarding my tplink re450

 

1.  When i done a firmware upgrade which is part of the package it has for somereason changed the model to a re550

2.  Why is it when i connect directly to my mifi device I can get speeds at around 200, 220 Mbps but connecting to the extender i can only get 90 to 110Mbps

 

 

 

1. I have no idea

2. I have done everything I can think of to try and rectify this wifi network noise.  I tested this though the tool supplied by tplink called WIFI Toolbox

    Does this tool show noise from the extender to the router or does it show the noise from the laptop to the extender.

 

I have connected everything to the tplink so its all on the 5ghz bandwidth, and i have also disabled the 2.4ghz setting as it isnt being used by anything here at home.

the noise chart that is provided showed the following

 

-93Dbm

 

and two rainbow lines

 

one is the extender

the other the mifi

 

the extenders wave peak is around -60 and the mifi is around -79 they both run underneath each other like a double rainbow.

CO channel interference 1.   What ever that means.

 

I hope someone can shed a light on this for me thanks

Hi,

 

1.Where did you see the model number change to RE550?

Upgrade the firmware will not change the model number of your range extender. You can refer to the label on the extender itself. 

 

2. The speed you get from the range extender will usually be slower than from the main router due to half-duplex technology.

You can refer to this thread: Why is my TP-Link Range Extender not getting the same speed as the main router?

It is a normal speed that if you get 200-220Mpbs directly from the router at the RE's place, and can get 90-110Mbps from the RE.
