I purchased this item in January 2015, the set up was okay but I wouldn't say it was simple. The item initially worked well, however over a short period of time as you remove and insert the dongle it became lose inside and within 2 months wouldn't work. It's poorly made and not built to last.

Wi-Fi dead zones can be a real problem if you don't want to festoon your home with cables and wireless access points. TP-Link's latest range extender is designed to fill in those gaps in your coverage with both 802.11n and 802.11ac Wi-Fi, letting you get super-fast speeds wherever you are.
