Cant it extend 5g wifi? For it is unable to extend my 5g wifi. My primary router (ONT) is huawei echolife HG8145V5. Which router are using as your primary router in this video?
I have a xiomi extender wifi AC 1300, I've followed how to install the extender from this video. but when the process of connecting to the main wifi does not work, and the light is still red. what do I have to do?
I have two xiaomi AC1200 repeaters, I'm trying to configure them (both) in my house on my iphone 13 pro, I got one but the other doesn't go in at all, I've done everything I've been trying all day and I couldn't. I do all the steps and I can't. PLEASE help me to solve this problem . I use it on my iphone 13 pro
Bought this device for occasional use in hotels, and it appeared to be useless. Usually in order to get access to hotel wifi it is requested to login through webpage.
this extender is good for devices that supports 5ghz on channel 36-48 which most of the phone doesn't support now a days. I bought mine but its just another 2.4ghz extender as my devices doesn't support this.
Great videos thanks. I would like to ask if the ethernet port works with 24mbps speed line. Amd also if the ethernet port can be used to connect a desctop computer by the cable. So im asking if the ethernet port can be used to give internet to a computer by the cable and not by the WiFi. As i see from you video someone can take a cable like 100 m from his router and plug it to connect this extender and gave net in the garage which can be far away fron the home. But can thes ethernet port be used in the different direction, like have the device in the next room take wifi from the router and then by the cable gove internet to an old desctop computer? Thank you again
Can we use its Ethernet Port to use internet ? in my scenario I have a CCTV DVR which can connect to a Ethernet cable but i don't have Ethernet cable there can i use this device to catch my WIFI connection and convert it into Ethernet connection?
The only problem with this is that the Lan port only support 100 mpbs. If you have 500 mbps and connected the repeater directly to your modem via LAN. It will only give 100 mbps to those device connected to the repeater.
Hello, Thanks for the great video. You are the only one talked about LAN port. So I am looking for a buy one of these, My requirement is to lay a ethernet cable from my Main Fiber Router > across the house to a place where WiFi is not reachable. With this Extender I can get the connection via LAN port and distribute it via Wifi ? correct me if I am wrong. And in that case, who handles the DHCP ? is it relaying from Main fiber router?
I have only a modem without wi-fi so i don't have a router, so my question is: can i connect my modem and my wifi extender with internet cable into the internet port and have an internet ? I ask this because im not sure do i need to buy a router or not.. Im asking this because i buy previous wifi extender from Mi which is without internet port, when i connected him with other internet who have modem with wi-fi the connection was still bad. Any thought on this ?
Nice review! So, in order to use it as access point with utp cable , first one has to create account, give personal data to mi, connect through wifi as repeater and then does one get option for access point? I'll give it a try as I was ready to throw it away ..
The Wifi networks created by Range Extender can be isolated from the original? example: I want to separate a network for 2 houses (cannot see Chromecast or other devices between homes)
Try changing your location in your Mi Home app. Try making it Malaysia. This is an issue with Mi Home app. Devices will be visible only by the country at which it's launched. So maybe this was not Officially launched in your country. So try changing the country. It should show
Thank you my friend. Great review, very informative. However, I have some issues with my product and I consider it a complete waste of money. Maybe I will update my review if I find a solution.
When you're using the device as Access Point. There isn't any option to set the channel, which in this case it will set to any channel potentially overlap with existing Wifi networks. At least up to the current firmware. In my case, this is harmful to overall wireless stability.
The ethernet port is meant to be extended from your main router to this range extender. This is to avoid signal degradation that comes from using wireless signal. You cannot plug directly from PC into this range extender's ethernet port.
Currently testing this extender. In my case my internet provider gives me 300 Mb/s download and around 20 upload so connected directly to router VIA phone my speed is around 284 on 5g. I have placed extender in a room located diagonally to the room with router (dunno distance but walls are thick) connected to router VIA wifi 5g. Then with phone connected directly to extender VIA 5g my download is around 88 Mb/s
Im planning to test more while connected to the port. Also gonna check how much i could get without heavy obstacles via wi-fi. As of now it looks its best with speeds close to 100. Anything above can be heavy restricted.
Great review sir. By the way can it do this: Main router➡️ (wireless) Xiaomi 5g extender ➡️ (via LAN cable ) other router. P.s I can't explain it clearly with words hopefully you'll understand that diagram 😅
Finally English review..thanks

It lessens the bandwidth when it's far away from the router, about 50% because i have a crappy room.
need help all is working except if I will click the AP, after connecting to router the wifi in extender lost 😑

can i use the extender in France were the wifisignal til now is to weak to reveive a good signal in the appartment?
as wifi extender speed is around 10 to 20 MBPS wired same speed as your main router
How many meter range away the extender to the wifi router? Can connect the extender in wifi router with in 25 meters away??? Thank you for response
Definitely useful but I have some issues because the signal source is 5ghz it couldn't connect to it

Can i connect the extender and laptop through ethernet?
Can I connect this device with my mobile phn internet??
Can we use its Ethernet Port to use internet ? in my scenario I have a CCTV DVR which can connect to a Ethernet cable but i don't have Ethernet cable there can i use this device to catch my WIFI connection and convert it into Ethernet connection?
Following up this question too thanks
Yes, you can use it.
I'm using the same model to both connect my pc and extend the wifi to my room.
The only problem with this is that the Lan port only support 100 mpbs. If you have 500 mbps and connected the repeater directly to your modem via LAN. It will only give 100 mbps to those device connected to the repeater.

Hello, I did set up the device, but shows as an unsecured network and I have not been able to secure it, any advice ? Thanks
The Wifi networks created by Range Extender can be isolated from the original? example: I want to separate a network for 2 houses (cannot see Chromecast or other devices between homes)
Yes you can
which one better comparing with TP-Link RE305 Wi-Fi Range Extender ?
And on 5GHz signal range which one is better? Thanks!
can I pass on wireless reception with lan to computers
smells like Greek review :P
True

Great review, very informative.
However, I have some issues with my product and I consider it a complete waste of money.
Maybe I will update my review if I find a solution.
total waste of money, I just installed this... and I agree
Thx, but i have a question, is it worth it to but wifi extender for 100+ mbps router?
what if the wifi source i want to repeat is hidden? how can i add it? is there add network option for this? tia
Ap mode is it possible to connect directly from modem?
Did you have some wall between during the test?
Yes 2 walls
Should've stopped watching when he said megabytes per second instead of megabits per second...

Good point. This is exactly happening to me...
This is such a basic feature, I don't know why Xiaomi didn't implement it...
Use 5GHz.
LAN port is 1G or 100M? Speed test looks like 100M only... thats sad :(
Yes it is
Can it extend the wifi network to the ethenet port? Can you plug your pc into the eithernet port and use it that way?
The ethernet port is meant to be extended from your main router to this range extender. This is to avoid signal degradation that comes from using wireless signal. You cannot plug directly from PC into this range extender's ethernet port.
Which device is best for 40-50 M
please do not buy this product it simply does not work.
The extender we use it to have ur wifi covering in every room in your house. It doesn't effect your wifi speed at all. Unless if you choose the 2.4Ghz
Good working
It works but not reliable for long term. After 1 year, it started acting up for me
So this one doesn’t do internet via power socket, correct?
No, you're looking for PLC, they're selling in pairs
Hello there, I have trouble connecting my Xiaomi AC1200 to my 5GHz connection, but it works fine with 2.4 GHz connection

Probably one of the worst options in the market
those ethernet settings was the worst by xiaomi,,u can tell that
Great review sir. By the way can it do this:
Main router➡️ (wireless) Xiaomi 5g extender ➡️ (via LAN cable ) other router.
P.s I can't explain it clearly with words hopefully you'll understand that diagram 😅
If I may ask your speeds are almost the same for the 2.4GHz and 5GHz is that right? I thought with 5GHz it would be faster
Speed from Internet provider is 100 upload and download
@@TechGuruAndrew in that case is ok, but connected by the cable will limit you to 100mbs anyway. the idea for this extender is to get circa 800mbs
mine is 400 mb but this router still stuck on 100 mb
