Seems like this is an old/used piece. The box says it included a power adapter but it’s missing.

Router nur als Verteiler nach Eingangssignal nutzbar aber nicht als Meshstation in anderer Etage brauchbar,geht zurück.

The advantages of Amazon, bypassing uncompetitive distributors. Same product same performance.. just from the UK..

First, those of you who are proficient at organising home or other networks will find this solution frustrating. Everyone else will love it. I bought an X50-5G router which is in the loft for best GSM-LTE signal reception. It replaced an MR400 with the intention of taking advantage of 5G network speeds, and adding a couple of units such as IP-cameras. The Deco App is necessary for configuring the network and I have finally arrived at a configuration which has everything working, I have also added the kitchen TV to the WiFi and have the usual subscription services running.So first let me deal with the good parts. I plugged-in my EE SIM and eventually everything sprang into life. I configured the SSID and WiFi password and all the devices which used to connect to the MR400 were now happily connected to the X50-5G. Brilliant! I plugged the cable-connected Edimax camera into the router and that eventually came to life after some fiddling. No fault with the X50-5G router, the Edimax camera is old-technology and can't handle current WiFi methods of operation (which is why it is now on a cable).I am quite satisfied with the result I have achieved.As a long-time user of TP-Link hardware the change in management philosophy was something of a culture shock. Documentation.... there doesn't seem to be any except for the basic steps that will get your phone connected to the device(s) via the Deco App. I tried using a laptop in a manner similar to my previous attempts with the MR400, but eventually gave up and downloaded the Deco App.The X50-5G router is in the loft at one end of our 2-floor house, immediately above the lounge with bedrooms between. The kitchen is at the other end of the house on the ground floor. WiFi signal from the router drops off after a couple of walls have intervened so I bought the X50 extension unit which is the cause of this Amazon review. The extender is on the ground floor just outside the kitchen and connected with the router without too much grief. I had to Google how to do it....The Deco X50 extension device was very attractively priced on Amazon. The kitchen TV has a banging WiFi signal and I can remain connected to the 5G router network on my phone as I wander around the house. Everything is working as it should.

Added to my DECO X50 4g router to extend the signal to the back garden and fill a few low signal areas. Setup is incredibly easy via the Android app (Apple app also available) and it takes about 5 minutes to find the device and then automatically copy across all your network configurations, there's nothing techie to do. Once set up it allows seamless transitions for your devices between the main unit and this depending on where your connected device is as it will always give you the best Wi-Fi connection.You just have one network name to setup on your laptop/phone/tv's and the DECO network decides which wi-fi unit gives the better connection and it switches without delay or glitches.The app is really useful as in addition to general network management it shows connection strength between the DECO units and also each connected device which helps with the initial positioning of the units. If you have thick brick internal walls where you place the units can make a big difference to the connection and signal strength.Update: Unfortunately the X50 4g router is really unreliable, I've now had 2 units both of which crash at least daily causing about 8 minute outages and often losing all of the SSID information meaning I have to reconfigure the whole network which isn't good if you work from home and it goes down during a Teams call with clients. I'll try the 5g router as it's really good when it's working but looks like others have had the same issue as me.

I got this to add to my Deco x20 network. They are very reliable and have good coverage but have a very inflexible feature set. If you want to use them to replace your Internet router, they are OK, and you can have a separate Guest/IoT network. However you cannot disable DHCP on them in this mode to use something else for IP addresses. You can change them to a pure access point mode but then all of the network are more or less the same. IoT stuff has full access to everything else and the guest network can either access everything or nothing at all. Including your DHCP or DNS.
