    Just a word of warning for prospective buyers. I'm not sure what the failure rate is but mine was completely DOA.
    No response from Zapalstyle of course.

        Responding to support ticket: RVA-98287 (which has proof of fault) for order # 800008945 would be a start.

    • bremo on 13/06/2018 - 22:02
      +1

      As far as I can tell, it won't work on WPA2-Enterpise (which is username and password for your WiFi), it will only work on WPA2 Personal (which is just a password). So it may or may not work on your uni network depending on the authentication method.

    • anawth on 14/06/2018 - 15:37

      Short answer. Probably not the way you're thinking of using it.
      It's more like a repeater than antenna if that's what you mean.

  • mr fox on 13/06/2018 - 21:42

    Tech guru pls help: Do you have to join the repeaters network or does it simply boost signal in the area it's powered? I have a wireless sound system like Sonos (Audio Pro Addon) and it has signal issues (all of 10 metres from the router but what can you do.) If I have to join a different network with the affected speaker I'm concerned it won't communicate with the other speakers.

    • bremo on 13/06/2018 - 21:55
      +3

      WiFi repeaters like these are usually transparent to the end device, so the same SSID (Wireless Network Name) is broadcast as your home WiFi. Your Sonos should happily float between the two devices depending on which one it can see has the stronger signal and it will be able to talk to other devices in your network.

      does it create a new separate wifi network?

      • open4highway on 14/06/2018 - 12:01

        Yes it does create a separate Wifi Network, you can make a single wifi network as well. It asks whether you want it or not, otherwise it just creates a new one with adding "plus" at the end of your current network name

  • DR-JEKL on 13/06/2018 - 23:38

    When I insert mine it keeps flashing amber, does not mean its not working (I got NFI with this stuff, FWIW I have a DLINK router supplied by skymesh on NBN)

    Also mine recently arrived from what I presume is the last OzB deal :)

    • blurn on 13/06/2018 - 23:45

      Flashing yellow means it's not set up. You've got to configure it with the mi home app by entering your wifi info. The light changes to solid blue.

      • DR-JEKL on 13/06/2018 - 23:51

        Thanks mate I had read in the product description it was pnp (states to plug in usb turns yellow to solid blue the reinsert into another usb slot) obviously thats only with certain routers?

        • blurn on 14/06/2018 - 00:47
          +2

          I think that is talking about if you own a Xiao mi router, you can simply plug the repeater into it and it will automatically configure itself. Then you can plug the repeater into another USB port at a weak location. For non Xiao mi routers you have to manually set it up with the app

    If I plugged one of these into my laptop, would it increase the speed/range of my laptop hotspot?

    • pinkybrain on 14/06/2018 - 10:06

      I think you plug it into any other usb ports
      and connect your laptop to it..

      It helps if your range is slow, then this is a just a repeater.

      If you got a spare wifi router, you can also create an access point, which I think would be much more stronger signal.

      • ChadHominem on 14/06/2018 - 14:21

        I was just curious about this use case:
        "Wide Connectivity : The Xiaomi Mi Wi-Fi Amplifier 2 is proud of its connectivity to any device that has USB port, which means a possibility to hitch up the amplifier to different devices of different-brand routers…"

        I know that paragraph mentions a few device types, as, like you said, you just need to connect it to any other usb ports, but connecting it to the usb port of a router makes no sense to me, since you'd just use the router itself as a repeater. Anyway, it just made me wonder if, in that use case it would amplify the signal of a router that it was connected to. Like adding an extra antenna to a router through the usb port.

        • pinkybrain on 14/06/2018 - 18:51

          go google

          repeater and wireless access point

          totally different things.

          If you want to have the strongest signal possible
          then create an access point with a spare wifi router.

          If you switch from old internet nbn
          usually there are spare wifi modem routers that can be turned into an access point.

      • anawth on 14/06/2018 - 15:42

        No this isn't what it does. It's not an antenna for your wireless NIC

    I need instructions on how to set up this device PLEASE. I bought this when it was posted here last time and it arrived in 3 weeks time.
    1. Installed Mi homeap on android phone and set up the Mi account. Region i selected is Singapore which is recommended, i didn't see Australia in the options.
    2. Add device and selected my wifi router (which is myrepublic) and entered pw
    3. It says Device connected, message sent to device and connecting to network timedout.

    I tried many times, reset the device, but same result. Is this the device is not compatible to my wifi router??

    • blurn on 14/06/2018 - 17:07

      The material and thickness of walls can negatively affect wifi signal. Try placing the extender that has more direct line of sight between the router and weak spot. Better explanation here https://support.zen.co.uk/kb/Knowledgebase/Broadband-What-af…
