Important Information
The advertised 300Mbps is the maximum theoretical wireless link rate based on IEEE 802.11 specifications. Actual WiFi speed, coverage and performance can vary depending on building materials, interference, network traffic, router placement and connected devices.
The TL-WA850RE is designed for 2.4GHz WiFi networks and is best suited to extending existing wireless coverage rather than replacing a modern high-speed dual-band router.
