A: I'm sure its possible

A: Hi redlite, Technically, yes, the RE205 can be used alongside an existing VPN-connected device in your network. For example, if your PC or phone connects to an existing VPN service via a client-side application, those devices can continue using that service, even while the extender is on the network. However, the extender itself cannot establish a VPN connection (e.g., VPN Server or Client).

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about the TP-Link AC750 Wi-Fi Range Extender - White (RE205 The TP-Link AC750 (RE205) "works" with a VPN, but it’s important to understand how it works, as it cannot run a VPN itself. 1. VPN Passthrough (Using an app on your phone/PC)YES 2.Built-in VPN Client (Setting up VPN on the device itself)NO 3. VPN Server (Accessing your home network from away) NO 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.

A: Hi Chris, That may depend on the Wi-Fi network encryption method used by the hotel. If the hotel uses a Captive Portal (which requires logging in via a web browser), this may create a hurdle when attempting to use a standard home Wi-Fi network extender. Depending on the hotel network type, one of our Travel Routers may offer enhanced compatibility.

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about the TP-Link AC750 Wi-Fi Range Extender - White (RE205) The TP-Link AC750 (RE205) is a bit of a "maybe" for a hotel. While it is a great device for a home, using it in a hotel can be tricky because of how hotel Wi-Fi works. Most hotels use a Captive Portal—that pop-up webpage where you have to enter your room number, last name, or a code to get online. 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.

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about TP-Link AC750 Wi-Fi Range Extender - White (RE205) Yes, you can absolutely do this! The TP-Link RE205 has a built-in feature called Access Point Mode specifically for this purpose. Instead of picking up a weak Wi-Fi signal from your house, the device will take the "wired" internet from your Ethernet cable and broadcast it as a fresh, strong Wi-Fi signal inside your shed. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

A: Hi liz, Yes, as long as the Ethernet cable runs from the router to the shed and the extender is installed in a location protected from the elements. The extender's Access Point Mode feature would be ideal for this type of scenario.

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about TP-Link AC750 Wi-Fi Range Extender - White (RE205). The TP-Link AC750 (RE205) is an indoor-only device and is not designed for outdoor use. If you plug it into an outdoor outlet, it will likely fail due to moisture, heat, or cold. However, you can still use it to boost your backyard signal by following these strategies: 1. The "Window Strategy" (Best Approach) Since the RE205 isn't weatherproof, do not put it outside. Instead, find an indoor outlet that is: As close to the backyard as possible (ideally on a wall or near a window facing the yard). Halfway between your main router and the backyard. Avoid Obstacles: Keep it away from brick walls, mirrors, or large metal appliances, which act as "signal shields." 2. Check the Environment The RE205 has a specific operating range. If you place it in an uninsulated garage or a covered porch that gets very hot or cold, it may malfunction: Operating Temp: 32°F to 104°F (0°C to 40°C). Weatherproofing: None. Even high humidity (above 90%) can cause internal corrosion over time. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

A: Hi Mike, The TP-Link RE205 AC750 Dual-Band Wi-Fi Range Extender is designed for indoor use only; it is not weatherproof or intended for outdoor use. However, if you only need a bit of extra coverage just outside one of your exterior walls, you may be able to get away with installing the extender inside near the exterior wall (as long as it receives ample signal from your router at that location), so it can receive and extend the signal further - potentially even outside a bit.

A: Hi Susanna, Yes, our TP-Link RE205 Dual-Band Wi-Fi Range Extender is designed to connect to your existing router's Wi-Fi network and provide additional Wi-Fi connectivity and range within your home. The RE205 supports quick, intuitive setup methods, including WPS button, app-based, and web browser setup, for your convenience.

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about TP-Link AC750 Wi-Fi Range Extender - White (RE205). Yes, that is exactly what the TP-Link RE205 is designed to do. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

A: Hi HB, The TP-Link RE205 is designed to provide universal Wi-Fi extension, so technically, yes―as long as your camera supports industry standard Wi-Fi connectivity.

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about TP-Link AC750 Wi-Fi Range Extender - White (RE205) The RE205 is a "universal" extender, meaning it can pick up any standard Wi-Fi signal (including a Google Nest Wifi signal) and rebroadcast it. Since the Nest Floodlight camera uses standard 802.11a/b/g/n (2.4 GHz) Wi-Fi, it can connect to the signal coming from the TP-Link extender just like it would a router.

A: Hi Withebellson, TP-Link Wi-Fi Range Extenders are designed for universal compatibility with Wi-Fi routers. Please note that mesh systems, such as Eero, may utilize a proprietary app or Mesh technology. As a result, while a universal Wi-Fi range extender can extend your Wi-Fi signal, it may not fully support the proprietary features of your existing mesh or its app ecosystem.

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about TP-Link AC750 Wi-Fi Range Extender - White (RE205). Technically, yes, the TP-Link AC750 (RE205) will work with an eero system, but it will not function as part of the "mesh." Instead, it acts as a separate bridge. Because eero uses a proprietary technology called TrueMesh, third-party extenders like TP-Link cannot fully "talk" to it to create one seamless, smart network.

A: Hi Cat, Yes. TP-Link Wi-Fi Range Extenders are designed for universal compatibility with Wi-Fi routers and Wi-Fi devices.

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about TP-Link AC750 Wi-Fi Range Extender - White (RE205). That is a very common setup—using a range extender to help a Smart TV in a distant room get a strong signal! Yes, the TP-Link AC750 Wi-Fi Range Extender (RE205) will work with your Roku TV, but you may need to use a specific setup method due to known Roku compatibility quirks. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

A: Hi Terry, TP-Link Wi-Fi Range Extenders are universally compatible with Wi-Fi routers. As long as your existing router or gateway provides 2.4 GHz and/or 5 GHz Wi-Fi connectivity, the extender should be compatible.
