TP-Link EAP115-Wall Omada N300 Wireless Wall-Plate Access Point, 802.3af, Easily Wall Mount, Free EAP Controller Software

Give me a good Wi-Fi signal and very fast and the ability to have poe through it, is very useful as you can connect up things like p o e cameras, and another plus is allegedly the Chinese government can spyit so if ever breaks hopefully they will send me to replacement straight away

Awesome product, I needed a thin profile access point in my garden office qhich is about 100 feet away from my home.. this does the job - straightforward to setup and you will need a PoE Switch. Now I have 1gbps internet speed (wired) and 800 mbps on wifi =)

Bought this to deal with poor WiFi in the house alongside BT full fibre 500. Very slim profile so mounted half way up the wall behind the TV at rear of the house and now get around 350-400Mbs around the house and down the garden with very very low latency. Having the 2 LAN ports and 1 Poe port on the plate makes it very useful. Only downside is the instructions aren’t very helpful if you aren’t very confident with getting your network up and running. As others have said use this is an extender so set up as a standalone and use the same SSID and logon as your existing network so you have one network with the same login info.

I bought a large house ten years ago for a full gutting and renovation - which, as my wife regularly reminds me I'm still doing.... As part of that renovation I put in loads of Cat6 thankfully with a view to having access in all rooms.Of course WiFi has come a long way since then and most devices need it including my mobile phone which uses the internet to connect when at home due to poor local coverage.But... I introduced a problem. When I re-plastered my house I dry lined the walls using foil backed plasterboard and thus without thinking created a wonderful Faraday Cage, especially when combined with the numerous steel beams I used.WiFi cover was rubbish and became worse when I moved to BT Infinity high speed broadband as all the WiFi routers seemed to have lower ability to punch through my house.So, I moved to a BT Mesh system which, improved things but was still not ideal. I also fundamentally prefer the idea of a wired system for reliability.And then I came across the TP Link Omada system.Happy days.It is of course designed for work places, shops and offices and I did wonder if it would be some over complicated thing that needed an IT Administrator to set up.Nope. Easy as an easy thing.First off, I will say that I bought this along with a few other items. A TP Link POE 8 port switch, an outdoor AP and an indoor ceiling mounted unit as well as the controller module which, isn't necessary but does make things easier.So, assuming you have set up the controller first (not needed but better) and downloaded the app which, is needed then it's easy peasy.Using Cat5 or 6 plug into your POE switch and then use the Omada app to search for the unit. Once found give it a name and off it goes.Thing is that as part of the Omada system using the controller module you set up your own SSID and password and then as you add AP's they all work on the same system. That means you can cover your entire property including your garden with one login and because it's wired you don't have the weak repeater signal problems and lower speed that comes with a mesh system.The actual TP link device here is the same physical dimensions as a white plastic single gang plug and it fits into a standard deep pattress box. If you have the really shallow back boxes then they may need changing and the wall recess deepening to take the deep box. I made sure all my back boxes were the deepest available just in case.Overall, this is a superb bit of kit and part of a fantastic system.

Just works. I fitted this into ceiling plasterboard which worked well for a flush fit as wife didn't want a circular normal ceiling AP!!

Likes…slimline fitting on standard wall box. Looks good with no wires or power supplies Easy to connect up to ethernet cable - need to have the cable in the wall of course and with a connector rather than bare wires. Transfers full speed from my virgin hub > 200mbpsDislikes = could not connect via web browser “server not found”, but using iphone app method it worked no problem. Instructions could be clearer to point out that you need to change the SSD (network name and associated password) to same as your existing wifi.Notes: remember this needs power from the ethernet connection, so make sure you feed it from a PoE device. I bought a small 5 channel PoE+ switch that i daisy chained with existing switch. ( i need about 15 ethernet port to supply all the bits and bobs in my house!). Perhaps the daisy chaining was reason i could not set up from the browser. Anyway phone app worked just fine. Took about fifteen minutes.Definitely recommend and will buy again for another part of my house.

Easily adopted into my existing setup of 2 other EAPs to give better coverage in the cellar. Really helps to manage the 3 APs together, instead of having to duplicate the settings across the devices. Dropped one star as the wall-mounted AP needs a deep box to mount it on the wall. Don't know why they couldn't have made the cable go in vertically, which would have made it all a bit slimmer. Doesn't really matter for my application but had to buy a 47mm deep box rather than use the 32mm one I had spare.

The TP-Link EAP115-WALL is an impressive product. It fits a standard single gang wall outlet, looks sleek, and is powered by POE. I used a TP-LINK Ethernet switch with POE support as its power source. For such a small profile, the Wifi signal it put out was stronger than I anticipated and covers a good area. Importantly, you can set both the channel number and Wifi power level in order to balance units in adjacent rooms.After installation, I used the built in webserver to configure it. The EAP-115's MAC address is printed on the front and so you can readily look up the IP address assigned to it by your router. I then connected to it from the wired LAN side using the assigned IP Address. The web pages were comprehensive and setup was straightforward.Points to note: at least 1.5 in/35mm depth is required for it to fit into the back box. The supplied screws (for the wallplate) have a triangle head (I suppose to be theft resistant). You will either need a special screwdriver or replace them with standard Electrical Screws.
