Maximum wireless signal rates are the physical rates derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 specifications. Higher capacity is based on laboratory test data, which analysed the connections of different devices on the 6 GHz, 5 GHz, and 2.4 GHz bands simultaneously. These devices simulated a typical home scenario by running simultaneous applications in the same room that included 4K video, 1080p video, 720p video, file downloading, web browsing, IP cameras, and other IoT devices. Actual wireless data throughput, wireless coverage, and connected devices are not guaranteed and will vary as a result of internet service provider factors, network conditions, client limitations, and environmental factors, including building materials, obstacles, volume and density of traffic, and client location.
‡4x Lower Latency refers to the latency improvement of Wi-Fi 7 range extenders compared to Wi-Fi 6 range extenders, based on laboratory test data. The test conditions had the same 5 GHz single-frequency wireless interference and tested the maximum latencies of Wi-Fi 7 clients (with MLO turned on connecting to the 5GHz and 2.4 GHz bands of RE225BE (with MLO turned on) Connecting to the 5 GHz bands of a Wi-Fi 6 range extender (without the MLO function).
Uninterrupted Streaming is designed for devices that support the 802.11k/v standard.
Use of Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be), Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), and features including Multi-Link Operation (MLO), 320 MHz Bandwidth, 4K-QAM, Multi-RU, OFDMA, and MU-MIMO requires clients to also support the corresponding features. The 160 MHz bandwidth on the 5 GHz band may be unavailable in some regions/countries due to regulatory restrictions.
TP-Link EasyMesh-compatible products can network with other devices that use EasyMesh. Failed connections may be due to firmware conflicts of different vendors. The EasyMesh-compatible function is still being developed on some models and will be supported in subsequent software updates. This product is compatible with standardised EasyMesh technology but has not obtained the Wi-Fi EasyMeshTM certification.
Unified management is available for TP-Link EasyMesh-compatible devices. This feature is not guaranteed for devices from other vendors.
Wi-Fi generations represent the wireless standard IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax/be. All devices need to support 802.11 Wi-Fi protocols.
Actual network speed may be limited by the rate of the product's Ethernet WAN or LAN port, the rate supported by the network cable, internet service provider factors, and other environmental conditions.
This range extender may not support all the mandatory features as ratified in the IEEE 802.11be specification. Further software upgrades for feature availability may be required.
