N300 Wireless Performance

The 2.4 GHz radio supports IEEE 802.11b/g/n devices with a rated wireless signal speed of up to 300 Mbps. It is a practical match for compatible everyday devices that need a reachable home network connection. This model operates on 2.4 GHz, so it suits a straightforward coverage extension rather than a separate 5 GHz network.

Extend Your Existing Network

In range extender mode, the TL-WA855RE connects to your existing wireless network and extends its coverage to nearby areas. It works with Wi-Fi routers and wireless access points, so you can improve access around a desk, bedroom or living space while keeping your current router. Position it where the router signal is still strong enough to provide a useful connection onward.

A Wired Port with Two Useful Roles

The built-in 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port can connect a compatible wired device while the extender joins your wireless network. Alternatively, access point mode uses an Ethernet connection from your network to create a wireless access point. These two arrangements let you choose between wireless coverage extension and a wired network feed, according to the cabling and devices already in your room.

Simple Setup and Everyday Control

A WPS button gives you a convenient pairing option with a compatible router, while TP-Link Tether provides app-based setup or management functions for the TL-WA855RE. The wireless controls include access control, LED control, a power schedule and coverage settings. You can adapt the device to a bedroom or shared workspace and manage when the extended network is available.

A Compact Plug-In Design

Two external antennas form part of the compact TL-WA855RE design, which measures 80 × 77.8 × 77.3 mm. The unit accepts 100–240 V AC at 50/60 Hz and has a maximum stated power consumption of 3.6 W. Its reset button gives you a direct way to start a fresh configuration when moving the extender to a different network or changing your setup.
