Main concerns people want a repeater: 1) Because WiFi signal doesn't reach a certain part of their house. You must make sure the repeater has good "path" between the router AND your device. Router --- Repeater --- Device If your room has too many obstacles, then you will still get low connections. It depends on how well you place the repeater. Router --- THICK WALL ××× Repeater ××× Device. If the place you put your repeater has low signal in the first place. Most likely still won't work. This is what I got from another video. It seems it depends on individual cases. I hope for my home will work. 2) WiFi speed will improve? It will improve ONLY IF your device Internet speed is slow due to low signal. For example, in your room, low signal, slow internet. Near router, strong signal, fast Internet. In this case, the repeater "might" help for your device to get the "original" Internet speed. I say "might" because I haven't bought the repeater. I've been searching for videos but I keep seeing people asking for these questions. Unfortunately the reviews usually don't tackle the problems people face in the videos. It is hard because different people are facing different problems. Some has a device on different floors, some wants to use outside their house, or garage, and so forth.
I tried the device. It does not work efficiently when you are surrounded of many concrete walls, a 5% efficiency or no at all. But it works when the repeater, phone, and router are at 5 meters apart.
Those repeaters are awesome, I have 2, they work like a charm even in sub zero temperatures, high humidity or high temperatures. One of them is in the house, the other on the outside. Can't recommend them enough.
This product is great no doubt. My router is at first floor and this extender is at second floor. It's working! But with 2.4GHz, just don't expect more hahaha but trust me it's great product
For 5Ghz there is other version right, Mi Wifi Extender AC1200. That's why there I read some bad review, could be they trying to connect this one with their 5ghz Wifi.
This product is awesome. It solved my problem where I get no signal in the furthest corner of my house (given the original WIFI signal is not strong enough to penetrate through couple of walls. After installing and Mi Repeater Pro I am receiving stable signal at that corner now. Thanks!
You'll need to clarify where you put the repeater at. Is it near your router? Then that means your router is the real problem. It's signal is weak. Others might have a good router but with the wrong placement of the repeater, it will still not work.
Bruh but you should tell us what's your internet speed normally, how are we supposed to know if you have 100mb net and 14 on repeated or 20 net and 14 or repeater 😄 main part of testing is not there
exactly - you need a before and after test to know the difference; and also a before and after test on the range. eg did it extend the range by 20m but slows the speed by 50%? = compromise or extends the range by 20m and doesnt affect the speed = great. Or extends the range 3m but reduce the speed by 90% = crap.
@@xxxxsilver exactly, I've saw other video about this one and dude mounted it in a room, tested in room right above it and it was like 25% slower, but his data plan was quite slow like I think under 30mbps
Dude I was so frustrated with trying to set this thing up, I was on the verge of tears. I am up and running thanks to your very helpful step by step navigation of the stupid app. Love you bro!
Fantastic wifi repeater, my school wifi is now better than before. but my challenge initially was that my phone was connecting to my router automatically making mi home app not to see my router. upon several videos i was able to figure that out. Thanks for all your videos. from Ghana Africa
I have that product it's working properly only few downsides: 1. The WIFI keeps disconnecting saying No Internet or Obtaining IP address is so long, this is due to WIFI extender's IP conflict try converting the extender to the static IP that is far enough to the other IP's 2. There is a delay in the WIFI extender like 50 to 100 ms to the main router so online games is not practical. 3. No admin page for this WIFI this is more like a plug and play than a configurable WIFI The internet is same as the wifi router sometimes slow but the good thing about it is they are have a wider range than my Router WIFI range like 2.5x assuming they are transmitting at the same place
Its buggy, have to reconnect every once in a while esp when it is far from the main router, have to place it near to work properly then it will say repeater is too close to the main router, like wth right
I got mine just now and overall it’s a fail. I connected it to my router at our main home and installed the repeater on our secondary home which is just 20 feet away. Sometimes the repeater loses it’s signal from the main router for some unknown reason.
Thanks you for your videos. I am very grateful, with technology one needs perseverance, i have been working on connection of Mi Wifi repeater for four days it is today that i am able to connect it. My challenge was that my phone was connecting to my router automatically making Mi Home app not to see the router. I suggest that your video should emphasis this part very well for others who are also facing the same challenge. Cheers for Ghana, Africa
Wont the internet connection be sacrificed when using the repeater? I plan to use this repeater with a dongle connected to my desktop. Is this strong enough for online classes? Our internet connection alone can accommodate streaming/dl/online class just fine. Just concerned baka humina pag nirepeater na then dongle pa. Thanks!
I have the cheap Mi WiFi Repeater2 i have this problem when everytime i open my desktop computer i got dc and cant connect in any device and when i turn off my desktop it turn backs to normal again
So it should be connected to the main router, right? Was planning to buy this in our dorm so we can boost the wifi signal, is it possible for it to work with a sub-router on our floor (we're at the 3rd floor) and we have this wifi router per floor. I guess the main router's at the first floor.
Hi, thanks for the video!.. but I have a problem with my Mi repeater pro, it keeps disconnecting after several minutes and when it is connected, my computer's net via lan cable will disconnect. Do I have to change something in the settings in my Tenda router and my repeater? Thanks
@@enashimo Try to set on the main router like 192.168.1.50 to your computer the one affected it. IP must far enough that you can able to access the computer at the same time able to access it. Xiaomi Mi Repeater doesn't have option for static IP setup so do in your computer or in router. You can search in the website on setting static router in your PC or in phones. Most high quality WIFI repeaters like TP-Link AX1500 Wi-Fi Range Extender cost less than 5000 pesos have this static IP configuration and setup or just buy WIFI mesh system, PLDT offer this but expensive.
Yes I tried it and it works. I'm planning to purchase another one so I can put it on the 3rd floor. Would it still work having 2 extender connecting on the main router at the same time?
Yes, it increases your range of your wifi, but what is the comparison between the speed of your internet and the speed when connected to the repeater? I have the extender home and my speed is significantly reduced from 120Mbs to 12Mbs. Do you know the reason?
I dont know if this comment can still be seen and read but i have problems. The wifi speed of the original router is 25mbps but in the extender it is 1-5 mbs. I hope someone can help me.
You are a good neighbor. It would depend how far is your neighbor from your router. If they can detect your current WiFi now then this would help boost the signal
Hi there, question: what's the difference between repeater 2 with this one? Given the price does it mean it's more likely to get more signal? Thanks bro

What's up! Thank you for watching all the way from Portugal. Unfortunately this will vary since it would depend on your main router's signal. Initially set it up near the router then plug it somewhere between the main router and the WiFi weak spots. The Mi Home app will indicate how good the signal is based on where you will plug the Repeater Pro so you can adjust the location. I hope this helps. Cheers.

Hi Sir, tanong lang if sa Converge, 2 kasi yung wifi signal db? 2.4 tsaka 5G, compatible to dun? Then yung sa Mi Home app, once connected, pwede ng i-close ang app? Or dapat naka-open lang? Thanks Sir!
It breaks easily. It didn't even last for more 5 months. Just a waste of money, time, and effort. When you buy something, from a manufacturer that says "on par" with other brand, Us, as a customer believes and trust the brand that their product is at quality and durable, at least for a good 2 years not 5 months or less. You should've have mentioned that too on your vid on "how to take care of our fiasco repeater". This is BS!

You must make sure the repeater has good "path" between the router AND your device.
Router --- Repeater --- Device

If the place you put your repeater has low signal in the first place. Most likely still won't work.

If I want to plug multiple repeaters, do I connect the consecutive repeater to the penultimate repeater or to the router?
Hi Sir, tanong lang if sa Converge, 2 kasi yung wifi signal db? 2.4 tsaka 5G, compatible to dun? Then yung sa Mi Home app, once connected, pwede ng i-close ang app? Or dapat naka-open lang? Thanks Sir!
why i cant connect my mi to my router?can you help me
My router is at first floor and if I plug it at ground floor can it will work good..??
if the extender can connect to the router then it should work
It breaks easily. It didn't even last for more 5 months. Just a waste of money, time, and effort. When you buy something, from a manufacturer that says "on par" with other brand, Us, as a customer believes and trust the brand that their product is at quality and durable, at least for a good 2 years not 5 months or less. You should've have mentioned that too on your vid on "how to take care of our fiasco repeater". This is BS!
May I know its range for it to connect to main modem?
great video...question sir....Should other devices need to install the app for them to connect? or just one main device?
Thank you. No need to install it on another device. Just do it on a singl device. And the rest just connect it through wifi as you normally do.
@@gadgetsLZ thanks i appreciate your reply... Very informative video.. Keep it up
Without a pre installation test for range/speed this video is completely pointless. Too bad, because the video was nicely filmed and edited.
Ah~ make sense, I am seeing that UK pin plug, I am wondering either you in UK, Singapore or Malaysia. I am really hard to find utuber with UK plug pin style based on SEA region. Gonna sub you
Thank you. I was in Singapore for a while and now I'm in the UK.
Here in Cyprus we have the same UK pin plug
It's coming to Malaysia officially now.
after 2 weeks the repeater died. Just use an old modem and ethernet cable to extend your wifi network.
Am i the only one, who always need to unplug and plug the mi repeater everytime i'm going to use it because if i dont unplug it it does not give me any internet connection, like my phone and laptop was connected to the repeater but doesn't give me any internet connection.
Is this better than the Mi Wifi Repeater 2? Is it worth the upgrade?
i got a problem about my wifi using my xioami note 8 pro and i'm thinking if i use this will the connectivity of my phone will be better because on some other devices connected in my wifi have a good internet and not laggy at all but my xiaomi note 8 pro is the opposite
it doesnt detect it
do i need to leave it plugged for a specific amount of time first and then do the detection thing?
Can i directly connect the repeater to the main router using lan 20meters lan cable?
i understand this is the 2.4ghz version, but can i please confirm if this is 2.4ghz in and out? i mean can it connect to 5ghz wifi router and can output 2.4ghz wifi? or is it only 2.4 in and out?
Hello, great instructions and a very informative video. Do you how is this device different than the other Xiao Mi wifi repeater (the white one powered by USB)?
Hi, Thank you. They are similar with that device. This is more stable and wider range compared to that USB WiFi repeater. This can connect up to 64 devices while the USB can only connect 16 devices at a time.
@@gadgetsLZ Thank you so much for replying. Do you have any idea how exactly they differentiate in term of range coverage?
@@romioalqasem6220 The pro is up to 120 metre radius due to its 2X2 antenna. I don't have the exact number for the USB but since it does not have external antenna the range it about 1/3 of the pro and it will easily go done with walls in between.
@@gadgetsLZ Thank you so much. You were really helpful. I appreciate it.
@@romioalqasem6220 You're welcome. 🙂
hello i just setup up the repeater for my globe wifi modem.works fine. do i have to reset the repeater if i will try to use another modem which is smart pldt modem? I mean two modem registered in the repeater
You can only connect the repeater to one modem at a time. Everytime you switch modems you have to reset and reconfigure the device.
Thank you for reply kya pala ayaw need to reset
Hi, upon how many hours does the internet speed improve? Thanks.
Not sure what you mean. This will only improve the range of your wifi not the speed.
@@gadgetsLZ i think what he means is that how many hours did it take before the speed was stable.
Mine was around 1-2 mins only.
Have you tried this with 5G router? I know this is supposed to be 2.4G but I'm wondering if it can pick up from a 5G router then boost the signal as 2.4G? Thank you in advance!
This does not support 5G only 2.4G so it will connect with 5G at all.
Is there any way I can connect this to public network? I have no private network, need this to extend college's wifi.
Where did you place it? Near the router or can it connect even if it is far from the router?
Is it recommended to use a different SSID when using this repeater?
it doesn't halve the speed? i also have a xiaomi wifi extender, the white bar type one, but my internet speed is 15 Mbps, but it only does about half of that in the speed test.
Hello is it applicable for prepaid wifi?
What is difference regarding range coverage stability as compared to Mi Wifi Repeater 2 .
The pro is up to 120 metre radius due to its 2X2 antenna. I don't have the exact number for the USB but since it does not have external antenna the range it about 1/3 of the pro and it will easily go down with walls in between.
@@gadgetsLZ so it means this is much better than Mi Repeater 2?
Watch my video about Mi repeater 2. I show there the distance from our second house
I want something will extend my 5g wifi, could you please nominate a device from ixaomi
Same.
i got 5G router and want to extent it too.... pls
Get Huawei WiFi 6 plus router it's great
Does this Mi repeater reconnects automatically when the main router restarts? Or do you need to manually turn off/on it too?
Yes it does.
As long as nothing has changed on your wifi configuration that it will connect back the moment it turns on.
My brother wants to ask ... if we use a hotspot as wifi ... then I want to join this mi wifi, can I go 🥺
I receive following signal warning even the repeater and my modem distance 10m but different floors:
"currently position and signal are not goodSignal strength -61dbm"
If I put this device beside to my modem, what is the point then?
How far or how near needed to reach the router?
Why Chinese assume that the whole world can understand Chinese. They MUST add multi-lingual support to all the products they want to hit the global market.
This can extend my home wifi ?
thx now the signal IS strong i can go to garden and watch youtube
i saw another video and the dude said this device cuts the original WiFi speed in half(like if you have a 100mbps wifi, if you connect this one, it'll cut it to 50mbps). is it true?
@@omnizafkiel i think so, i dont think its a really big difference i never bought it though

My repeater has a problem we're it doesn't even come close to the speed of the router , how do I fix it?
How if did not connect to Wifi but connect to mobile data ? Is that also can function ?
Brother, if my double story house with 2500 sq ft each floor and my unifi router is place in the side near my main door first.
After set up the unit where is the best place to plug in the mi repeater and do i need a second set for first floor.
Now i place the mi repeater on the last room on first floor but it just can function well but the indicate blue light.
Pls advice. Thks.
hi. im using it for 1yr. then i have a problem on it. it disconnect it self on the main router and reset it self. i always reconnect it and always disconnect and reset after an hour. i really need your help. looking forward on reply. TIA
can you limit this wifi repeater's speed? say I have 50mbps and wanted to just let the repeater use 15mbpa out of it? would that be possible?
Is there an answer to this?
Yes you can limit its speed by using your speed limiter in your main router
Can we keep seperate password?
It won't affect old WiFi password right ?
I mean in a room of 6 people I myself personally can a le to use this device by keeping seperate password meanwhile other members stil can use same router input with normal old password?
You can only set a single password at a time.
range? how long will extend..can it do like 30m?
will it be the same speed as the router or slower if you're connected to the repeater? thanks
Slower. But the signal will be stable and strong. Much better than low signal and low speeds that comes from your router
Ihave iphone and it doesnt show when i add a device, does iphone work on this
Is that how much your internet speed is or the wifi throttled your connection? You forgot to mention that part.
If I reset the main router, do I need to rest the MI wifi repeater? I always do this always on my TPLink router and its very annoying every time somebody resets the main router.
hello just want to ask. i am planning to purchase it because the connection in my room is too slow. but i almost have a full signal. will this improve the speed of my connection or just strenghten the signal? thank you and hoping for your reply.
This is only help extend the wifi range but for it will not help with the wifi speed I'm afraid.
I have a public WiFi near me but the signals are too weak for my phone to connect.
Can i use it to increase its range ?
If yes,
Do i have to place it near the router of public WiFi or can i place it at the edge of the range of that wifi ?
Please help!!
You can put it where it recieve good signal with the router. No need to be side by side with the router. Not advisableif you put it at the edge or the wifi signal.
Hello po. Does it also act as wifi range extender? Planning to buy one. Hindi kasi umaabot dito sa 3rd floor ang wifi sa 2ndfloor
