WAVLINK AX3000 Outdoor Wireless Access Point, Dual Band Outdoor WiFi 6 Access Point (2.4G/573M + 5G/2402M), Active/Passive PoE, 6 Antennas, weatherproof IP67 Enclosure, Gigabit WAN/LAN

Wow this thing works well over a large area, was easy to set up to the existing WiFi in the home. We'd tried other makes to no avail 10/10

I wanted to extend my Wi-fi coverage to my front gate, 50+ mts away from the house and my router hub, so I could install a Ring doorbell. I researched this product and decided it provided all the options I required. Repeater mode and direct power supply, not just POE. Once in position the set-up was straight-forward and it is working very well providing a full strength Wi-fi signal all the way to the gate. Highly recommended. The only slight glitch was the plug was a two pin US plug. However, I ordered an adaptor plug and all is working perfectly. I contacted WAVLINK customer service and very quickly they refunded the cost of the adaptor plug and are working on supplying UK customers with a suitable plug as part of the supplied kit.

Escellent long distance Access point. It is configureed to be an AP by default. One small niggle, the waterproof gland does not allow easy fitting over the larger size of waterproof ethernet plug. Its a struggle.

A good strong signal, covers the whole back garden absolutely no problem

Works great

​I was really looking forward to using this outdoor wireless access point since we have significant issues with connecting to the wifi network from various parts of our garden. Before I connected it to the network, though, I did a Google search. and if you look for "wavlink backdoor cybernews" you'll find an article detailing the vulnerabilities that were shipping with wavlink product 2 years ago. Wavlink didn't reply to the Cybernews article, but they did post a separate article refuting the claims about their product. Cybernews then posted a rebuttal of wavlink's article and Wavlink went silent on the topic, which isn't at all reassuring! One can only assume that the issue has not yet been fixed at the Wavlink end. The gist of the article was that Wavlink routers ship with "backdoors" allowing "bad actors" (people with malicious intent) to exploit the router, connect it to a botnet, steal personal data, and access your online accounts. I will not, therefore, allow this router anywhere near my home network, and I shall be removing the 2 other Wavlink products from my home. EXTREMELY not recommended!

This access point strikes a great balance between functionality, ease of setup, and overall quality. It offers flexible installation options—whether as a primary WiFi router connected directly to a modem or as an additional access point within an existing network. The key setup consideration is whether it will handle DHCP and if its Ethernet connection will link back to a switch or router. Power over Ethernet (PoE) simplifies installation, allowing you to use the included PoE injector or a PoE-capable switch. This makes placement more convenient since you only need to run a single Ethernet cable, which can be up to 100 meters (around 300 feet). The unit is impressively weatherproof. The antennas have rubber grommets, and the Ethernet port is located on the underside with a watertight adapter. The adapter consists of two hard plastic parts and a split rubber grommet, which needs to be disassembled before threading the Ethernet cable through. It works with most standard cables, except those with oversized boots. A key tip: before mounting the AP in a hard-to-reach spot, complete the digital setup while you still have easy access to the reset button. The included documentation is limited, but the Wavlink website provides more helpful resources. Setup is straightforward via a two-step wizard in a web browser. I did run into a minor issue where Microsoft Edge wouldn’t load the setup page, but Safari and other browsers worked fine. Once configured, the AP delivered WiFi speeds comparable to my Netgear router’s 2.4G and 5G networks. The real advantage, though, is its outdoor capability—it extends WiFi coverage hundreds of feet into the backyard. Overall, this is a solid, well-built access point with strong performance and versatile installation options.

Yes just hat was needed and as stated it did just what it said it would. Easy install and crack on!

I live on a Ranch. My shop is about 400 feet away from my house. I use Starlink. Extraordinary WiFi. But couldn’t get WiFi far enough to my shop. I bought few different brands of WiFi extenders. All waste of money and garbage. So I decided to give it a last chance on this one. To my surprise. This thing push extraordinary signals not only 400 feet to my shop but way beyond past my property line. Very easy to install and get it working. It’s perfect paring with my Starlink. Not only that I get signal strong enough throughout my house powerful enough to run multiple TV, computers and phones. I get zero signal on even my phone data. So I relied heavily on Starlink and this Wavlink. Anything else is garbage.

It super simple to install and set up. The signal is strong and reliable. The only downfall (if any) is one cannot set up a secondary 2.4Ghz network with the Parental control but only 5Ghz.

Reaches at least 600 feet!

ein super teil, und man kann es sehr gut verstecken ;-)

Hab das Ding im Dachstuhl aufgehangen und kann jetz nahezu das ganze Grundstück mit W-Lan versorgen, die Übertragungsgeschwindigkeit ist ok, könnte zwar besser sein aber ist vollkommen ausreichend. Werde ihn vielleicht noch einmal ummontieren und schauen ob es besser wird.
