Model: RE603X  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I just purchased the Archer AX11000 router because I am in the process of moving into a 4200 square foot home (two story) and I pretty confident I will need to purchase a range extender, if not two. With that said, I have two questions. First, what is the difference between the RE603X and the RE605X? Secondly, can I use a Powerline (to hardwire certain devises) in conjunction with said units? I appreciate any advice and suggestions. Thank you.

@MistuKumSan Hello, 

 

RE603X is nearly the same as RE605X, only that RE603X is sold on specific channels/ retailers.

(US website compare) https://www.tp-link.com/us/compare/?typeId=10&productIds=50234%2C42131

 

Range extenders could not communicate via House Powerline, they normally wirelessly connect to router.

As you have a two- story large house,  you may consider powerline units to extend the network if your house are in the same Powerline circuit/ under same power meter.

e.g. oneMesh compatible Powerline devices like TL-WPA8631KIT
https://www.tp-link.com/onemesh/product-list/#powerline-adapters

You may  add more powerline units to extender internet via WiFi or wire (they normally sold by KIT)if you have multiple rooms.

Hello @MistuKumSan 

Sorry for the late reply.

1. For WiFi range please check this FAQ' Q1: What’s the range of an 11AC/11AX wireless product or how far can it cover?'

https://www.tp-link.com/support/faq/2291/

2. I did not hear that powerline units will cause interference to each other, please check this thread to check things that may affect powerline evironment. 

What can I do if my powerline rate is very low?

For WiFi  interference , I suggest putting powerline  extender unit (with WiFi feature) in a different room from router.

@Solla-topee I apprecaite the feedback. So, If I am understanding you correctly, I can either go with the RE605X to effectively extend my WiFi coverage or go with the TL-WPA8631KIT powerline adapters for WiFi and hardline capabilities. Thank you!

@Solla-topee I'm about order a TP-Link AV1300 Powerline WiFi Extender(TL-WPA8631P KIT) but before can you provide some information.

1.) what is the effective Wi-Fi range of the adapters? 
2.) how far apart do the adapters need to be so they do not interfere with each other?
