WAVLINK AC600 Outdoor Weatherproof Wi-Fi Range Extender-Dual Band 2.4 & 5GHz Long Range Wireless Internet Signal Extender Booster&Router/AP/Repeater/WISP Mode with POE,No WiFi Dead Zones for Home

Great range expander, working very well for more than a year now!

Update 8/14: Dead WiFi. So the short version... It was powered on and was working and then no WiFi....unplug and reset....no go. Spent a good 2 hours working through it and can connect via Ethernet cable and the unit is responsive (including firmware update without issue) but end result still no WiFi. It could find the signal I was looking to repeat, but that was about it. Conclusion I something broke. Needless to say it made for a trip to be annoying WiFi wise and have already gone another route. Update 7/21: So have had a few more outings and it continues to work well. This last weekend out garnered a few laughs. While paying for our stay another guest complained that since someone else was in the way, they cannot get a WiFi signal and had a rash of theories as to why it was "actually that way". For me, it was the same... signal went from 86% repeat strenght to 0% as there was a loss of line of sight at the distance we were staying.....except I simply moved the unit about 20' that had a better line of sight -- and went from no signal to 100% repeat strength. I still have to add in some more mounting options, but for now... it continues to be exactly what I was looking for. Overall it works great. A few caveats...but was what I was looking for. The unit is dead simple--- plug in...log in...run through the wizard...done. Almost done. So that is the simple answer...now the caveats. I use this to pick up a WiFi signal and repeat it. This is why it is designed to do. The issue is every time I go somewhere else, you have to run the wizard....you just can't pick a new signal from a scan to repeat, enter the password and retain all of your settings for the back end...you have to re-enter. That said sometimes you have to scan 3-5 times to find the WiFi signal you're looking for if there are a number of them around. So that leads to a huge plus that balances that...it creates a private LAN. The advantage is I can connect my devices and nobody else can see what I have connected. I wish it had more security protocols and that you could scan and enter a new WiFi signal password without running the wizard. With this being my first weekend out with it... I am pleased. It mounts easily and now I just have to make provisions for the wiring on a more permanent scale. Right now I have been streaming with a ROKU for 4-hours straight without a hiccup and have two phones connected as well.

I will update this if I get it to work. I hooked it up and got power to it but no wifi. I tried resetting it, but that did not work. I gave up after a couple of hours. Next day - left it plugged up overnight, for some reason when I checked it today, the wifi was working. Don't have a clue why. I connected to it without issue. Made changes to the setup and rebooted with no issued. Unplugged it and mounted it on side of building and it worked when I plugged it back in. I can't answer why it did not work on the first day. If it worked right away when I plugged it in, I would have given it 5 stars, but the delay in it working gives me a concern for future issues. We'll see.

This unit is easy to install and setup , I have a Eero pro on each floor of my house and it works great however I had dead spots out in my yard. I hooked this unit up on the back end of my deck ( AP bridge mode ) and now I have awesome wifi throughout my yard . Now my wifi pool light works and my Kasa wifi switch for my shed lights Very happy so far

I went back to what I was using indoors before and recommended passing on this item as it needs Japanese R&D help 🤔🤨 in my opinion based on my past experience using the device and trying my hardest🫤 to get the device to be a repeater for the cellphone WiFi which includes placing unit high into the air away from the house, placing cellphone as close as possible to the unit within the house and a timing device to automatically turn unit off and on, an auto reset, to help increase possible speed of the repeater🫤 Update: Aug 6, 2024 Today's the day I take down the unit. After it rained the unit stopped working. The unit tries to stay up but every 60 seconds it reboots. So this unit is not rain proof or outdoor ready and it is beyond 30 days, so I just have to toss it into the trash as just another piece of junk from China in my opinion based on my recent experience only.

I have moved to a small farm isolated from cable internet. So I uses a Sprint Hotspot modem which provides the same wifi distribution around the house as a typical modems I had while living in the city. I wanted WIFI around the yard and to outbuildings. I attached the AC600 to a 3 foot mast on the roof of the porch just outside the den where I have the Sprint modem. I got 3 bars wifi strength on my iphone at this point. The sprint modem does not have an ethernet connection so my connection from modem to AC600 had to be by WiFi. I purchased a 50 ft powered ethernet cable to replace the 3 ft cable that came with the AC600 order and used it to supply power from AC600 to an outdoor power outlet. Results: I have a workshop 145 feet from the AC600 and a pole barn 165 feet away in the opposite direction. I got a steady 2 bars on the iphone. I installed a range extender in each building and get 3 bars in each.

Setup maybe a bit for a novice but not too bad works great

Bad wi-fi connectivity Every time reboot

My usage is on low range, but it is working perfectly.
