It’s only there you can force the E15 to use WPA3 security, for example. It’s relatively simple to set up with the Eagle Pro AI app, and using that you can see which devices are connected to the extender (even if you don’t use it in mesh mode) and there’s a bizarrely named Health Mode which allows you to turn off Wi-Fi overnight as a way to prevent your kids using their devices.Īnnoyingly, quite a few settings aren’t available in the app: if you tap Advanced Mode, a web browser opens and presents a traditional router management interface that’s way too small for a phone screen. There’s also a useful signal meter on the front which tells you if you’ve plugged it in in a good location or not. The E15 has fold-out antennae, for improving the signal range and there’s a Gigabit Ethernet port on the bottom edge which can be used to connect wired devices such as TV set-top boxes.
Quite obviously, there’s no point at all in buying the E15 if you don’t even have a Wi-Fi 6 router as you’ll be paying more but not benefitting from the extra speed and features. Used in this way, the E15, as with the TP-Link’s OneMesh, you get much better speeds than if you were to use the E15 with another brand of Wi-Fi 6 router, where it would revert to working in half-duplex mode.
The E15 is part of the Eagle Pro AI range from D-Link and is designed to be used in conjunction with the R15 router and, optionally, the M15 mesh Wi-Fi system.
