• Reviews around bridge (4.19 of 5)

    TP-Link Wireless N300 2T2R Access Point, 2.4Ghz 300Mbps, 802.11b/g/n, AP/Client/Bridge/Repeater, 2x 4dBi, Passive POE (TL-WA801ND)

    • Works great as a Bridge and repeater so long as you only have one device behind it
    • I had high hopes this would work as a wifi bridge for me (to establish a local subnet allowing high speed connections between local devices wifi'd into the subnet, and still allowing all the boxes to talk to the outside world)
    • Could not get it work as transparent bridge.
    • It is bridged as an access point off of our Frontier Communications ZyXel P-663HN-51 wireless router and doesn't interfere with our hardwired Belkin router we have our Roku connected to wirelessly in our second floor bedroom
    • After initial configuration its working fine as a bridge
    • Note that if this what you're looking for (a pure wifi->copper bridge or a repeater), then you're good to go
    • Works great as an Ethernet bridge to connect a wired device to a wireless router in another room
    • Works great as a bridge - easy to sync up - instructions were very clear.
    • Works well as a bridge for my home security DVR that is located in attic.
    • This last point is most important as it was the one change that got it to work stably as a bridge.
    • Set up as a bridge for surveillance system works flawlessly
    • It works as a AP and Bridge
    • Did not work in any mode as a bridge, universal or WDS repeater
    • Works great as a bridge - easy to sync up - instructions were very clear.
    • I was able to set up the TP-Link TL-WA801ND as the main Access Point and the ASUS RT-N66U as the repeater/bridge (yeah sad, I know), but the TL-WA801ND would crashed repeatedly (sometimes several times a day) when in this configuration
    • I have tried everything but this thing refuses to play nice with my existing TP-Link router (TL-WR1043ND R)
    • The firmware apparently changed between the time the manual was written and my batch went out, since the manual described a menu similar to the 701N, leading to much confusion as I messed with updating firmware to the latest, scouring the web, and ultimately wasted an hour on hold for support, only to have them read the manual to me

    • G access point, which still works fine but since we only stream TV shows and movies
