Cutting-Edge Wi-Fi 6 Performance. Equipped with the latest 802.11ax wireless technology, the RE505X delivers combined speeds of up to 1.5Gbps – 1200Mbps on the crystal-clear 5GHz band and 300Mbps on the reliable 2.4GHz band. This means faster loading times, smoother 4K streaming, lag-free gaming, and the capacity to handle multiple devices simultaneously without buffering or dropouts. Even if your current router doesn’t support Wi-Fi 6 yet, this extender is fully backward compatible with all AC, A, N, and G standard routers . For advanced security, the RE505X supports the latest WPA3 encryption standards .

Whole-Home Mesh Coverage with OneMesh. Why settle for separate network names? When connected to any TP-Link OneMesh-compatible router, the RE505X automatically creates a unified mesh network. You’ll enjoy Smart Roaming, which seamlessly switches your device to the strongest signal as you move from room to room, and a single Wi-Fi name so you never have to manually reconnect again. You can manage the entire mesh network effortlessly through the TP-Link Tether App .

More Than Just a Range Extender. The RE505X pulls double duty with its built-in Access Point (AP) Mode. Simply plug an Ethernet cable into the onboard Gigabit port to turn any wired network connection into a high-speed dual-band Wi-Fi hotspot – perfect for dorm rooms, hotel stays, or adding Wi-Fi to a home office with existing wired internet .

Smart, Simple, and Reliable. Setup is refreshingly straightforward. You can connect the extender to your router with a single press of the WPS button, or by following the step-by-step wizard in the free TP-Link Tether App. The Intelligent Signal Indicator LED takes the guesswork out of placement – it glows solid blue when you’ve found the optimal spot between your router and the dead zone . The compact wall-plug design sits flush against any outlet, keeping your space clean and clutter-free without bulky power bricks or extra cables.
