wifi ac repeater comparisonb

   Once we finished our tests I have to admit that for a second I thought that the results of this comparison were somewhat predetermined based on the specifications of each repeater. Still it wouldn't be the first time that the specifications of a product would not reflect its performance and this is exactly what we wanted to check for when we asked for these models. Also as it's quite evident from our charts the Linksys RE7000 exchanges blows with the AVM 1750E often so although the former is packed with extra technologies compared to the latter it still had to fight its way to the top (still we don’t know what the results would be if we had an AC1733 USB 3.0 adapter – not yet available - with support for MU-MIMO). Of course as expected in terms of performance the devolo offering lags considerably behind both the RE7000 and the 1750E mainly because of its lower signal bandwidth. When it comes to available web interface settings both the RE7000 and the 1750E offer far more than what the average user could ever hope to use and with that in mind although the web interface of the WiFi Repeater AC is much simpler with just the basics still it could be more ideal for some people. Surprisingly enough however regardless of available settings all three repeaters were extremely easy to setup and use when connected with our systems wirelessly (we did encounter some issues when trying to setup the AVM and devolo units via Ethernet connection).


   Top of the line WiFi AC Repeaters are not very affordable and you can easily see that just by looking at the Linksys Max-Stream RE7000 model which currently retails for USD99.97 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and for 85.79Euros inside the EU (Amazon.de). At 90.86Euros inside the EU (Amazon.de) the AVM FRITZ!WLAN Repeater 1750E may come 2nd in WiFi AC performance after the RE7000 but not by much so it's still a very solid offering for people looking to get their hands on one of the fastest repeaters of its kind. Finally the WiFi Repeater AC by devolo may have finished last in our tests but with a current price tag of just 53.99Euros inside the EU (Amazon.de) it’s by far the most affordable model of the three. Still at the end of the day there’s no denying that the fastest and most feature-rich repeater of the three is the RE7000 and since that’s exactly what we set off to find out it gets our Platinum Award.
