Q: Does it have a separate wifi name and password from the main router?
A: Hi Amanda, The RE205 Wi-Fi Range Extender shares the same wireless passwords as those of your main networks when operating in Range Extender Mode. However, in Access Point Mode (wired to your router via Ethernet cable), you can set a separate Wi-Fi password than the one on your Main Wi-Fi Network.

Q: Will this work to pick up WiFi inside of a metal shed?
A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about the TP-Link AC750 Wi-Fi Range Extender - White (RE205) No, a standard Wi-Fi range extender like the TP-Link AC750 (RE205) will not work well to extend a signal inside a metal shed. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day between 7 am and 11 pm CST.
submitted byRena - 2 months agoTarget expert supportA: Hi mary, Placing a Wi-Fi range extender in a metal shed is not recommended, because the metal walls and roof create the equivalent of a Faraday cage, which blocks wireless signals. Think of it like trying to listen to the radio inside a metal box—the signal can't get in or out. Similarly, this also weakens Wi-Fi signals, which may lead to a slow, or non-existent connection.

Q: Can this be used for rv’s to connect to campground WiFi
A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about TP-Link AC750 Wi-Fi Range Extender - White (RE205). Yes, the TP-Link AC750 Wi-Fi Range Extender (RE205) can technically be used in an RV to connect to campground WiFi. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.
submitted byJoe - 2 months agoTarget staff supportA: It actually depends on several factors. If the campground uses a captive portal for authentication, then the answer is likely no. If it uses a traditional SSID and Password, then it may be possible, but several factors have to be considered, such as signal strength, AP/Router security, ACL settings, and the physical area you are putting the Extender.

Q: Do I need more than 1 Extender
A: Hi Angelboriqua007, The number of Wi-Fi Extenders you need will depend on how many "Wi-Fi Dead Zones" you have in your home, the position of your router, and the overall layout of your home. We recommend starting with one Wi-Fi Extender and positioning it as optimally as possible before determining whether additional extenders are needed.
submitted byTPLinkSupport - 2 months agoBrand expertA: Hi Angelboriqua007, thanks for reaching out about TP-Link AC750 Wi-Fi Range Extender - White (RE205). You can just use 1 range extender to extend your router's wifi where it does not reach. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.
