No More Dead Zones: Your AC750 Dual-Band Upgrade
Do you know the feeling? You have full reception in the living room, but the connection constantly drops in the study or on the terrace. The TP-Link RE200 puts an end to that. As a powerful WiFi Repeater, it picks up your router's signal and specifically boosts it into previously underserved areas. Thanks to Dual-Band technology, it uses both the 2.4 GHz band for broad coverage and the faster 5 GHz band for interference-free HD streaming and online gaming. This ensures a stable and fast Network throughout the house.
Effortless Setup: Strong WiFi in 2 Minutes
You don't have to be a Network professional to set up the RE200. The simplest method: Press the WPS button on your router and then the RE button on the Repeater. The devices connect automatically within two minutes. Alternatively, the intuitive TP-Link Tether App for iOS and Android guides you step-by-step through the installation. The smart signal light shows you at a glance whether you have found the perfect location – green for good, red for too far away.
Flexible and Smart: Repeater, Access Point & OneMesh
The RE200 is more than just a simple signal booster. In Access Point mode, you can connect it to your wired Network via LAN cable and set up a completely new WiFi – ideal for basements or garden sheds. Thanks to TP-Link OneMesh™, you can combine it with a compatible router to form an intelligent Mesh network. The result: a single, seamless WiFi connection throughout the house, without manual switching between different network names. You can also use the Ethernet port to connect wired devices such as Smart TVs, game consoles, or PCs directly to the WiFi.
High-Speed Mode for Seamless Streaming
For particularly demanding tasks such as 4K streaming or intensive online gaming, the RE200 has an ace up its sleeve: the High-Speed Mode. Here, one frequency band is used exclusively for the connection to the router (backhaul) and the other for the connection to your end devices (frontend). This clever division minimizes the speed loss that can occur with conventional Repeaters and ensures maximum performance when it matters. So you can enjoy the full power of your internet connection even in the furthest corner of your home.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can the TP-Link RE200 be used as an Access Point?
Yes, the RE200 has an Access Point mode. You can connect it to your router via an Ethernet Cable, and it will then create a new, separate WiFi network.
How do I set up the TP-Link RE200?
There are three methods: The simplest is to use the WPS button on both the router and the repeater. Alternatively, you can use the TP-Link Tether App on your smartphone or a web browser on your computer for a guided installation.
What does the signal light on the RE200 mean?
The intelligent signal light helps with optimal placement. If it glows green, the reception from the router is good. If it glows red, the repeater is too far from the router and should be placed closer.
Is the RE200 compatible with every router?
Yes, the RE200 is universally compatible and works with any standard WiFi Router or Access Point, regardless of the brand.
What is TP-Link OneMesh?
OneMesh is a technology from TP-Link that allows you to create a unified Mesh WiFi network with a compatible router and the RE200. This ensures a seamless connection under a single network name.
Why is my internet speed slower via the repeater?
A repeater naturally halves the theoretical bandwidth because it has to transmit and receive on the same frequency. Additionally, the distance to the router and obstacles like walls can affect the speed. For maximum performance, the high-speed mode should be used.
