Model: TL-WA1201  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version:

Hi guys, 

 

I have a BE550 router. And I have IoT network configured, what means that I have two SSIDs. I'd like to know if TL-WA1201 V3 is a good option to extend my network (wired, I already have a rj45 connection in the place i want to put the ap). 

 

Thanks all

Hello@Celitron18000 ,

 

If you want to expand your network via a wired connection and don't have other specific requirements, such as increasing your IoT network or requiring high wired speeds, the TL-WA1201 is a good choice.

You should also know that almost every wireless router can work as an AP - details.

The advantages of  TL-WA1201 is that it's a dedicated AP which supports VLANs.

But if you don't use VLANs in your local network configuration, you can simply use a wireless router as an AP and extend your wireless coverage.

The other approach could be to use another Easymesh compatible router that support an ethernet backhaul to achieve the same.
