Model: RE200  
Hardware Version: V4
Firmware Version: 1.0.6

I recently bought the Wifi Extender for 3 days and connected to my Desktop(Ethernet Cable) and Laptop(Extender Wifi). When i use directly  my ISP router it doesn't have high ping and when i connect the wifi extender, sometimes my ping will spike to 300+ for few seconds and back to normal .

@eStewart 

Good day.

Thank you for your concern.

Since the range extenders connect to the router wirelessly, due to the Wi-Fi interference and half-duplex over-the-air modulation techniques, the ping delay would be a little longer that the router.

So we might need your help to get more details about the high ping

Could you please provide us the following pictures:

  1. The ping test when the Gaming computer connected to the Wi-Fi of the router;
  2. Ping test when the Gaming computer connected via Ethernet cable to RE200;
  3. Ping test when the Gaming computer connected to the 5G band of RE200;

And may I know the distance between the router and RE200?

 

Thank you~

And Also I use Ethernet cable from Extender to my Desktop. Why only allows it until 100mbps?

Good day.

Sorry for the delay.

For the RE200, it has 1 x 10/100M Ethernet Port (RJ45).

https://www.tp-link.com/en/home-networking/range-extender/re200/#specifications

So the Ethernet link speed is up to 100M/s.

 

Thank you very much!
