Aggregated technical data for this generic 2.4GHz extender indicates the use of a Realtek RTL8196E chipset, limited to 802.11n standards. The hardware architecture utilizes 2x 3dBi internal antennas and is powered via a 5V USB-Micro input. Technical analysis shows the absence of LEO-satellite optimized MTU settings, which may result in TCP handshake timeouts when integrated with CGNAT-based network architectures.
Structural dimensions involve a thin-gauge plastic chassis with no documented IP-rating for moisture resistance. Performance metrics demonstrate a susceptibility to thermal throttling under sustained load. The device provides basic WPS pairing but does not feature the 12V-to-48V DC conversion hardware found in official satellite networking components. Standardized testing confirms a bottleneck for throughput exceeding 100Mbps.
The Aqara M3 Hub is recommended as a more stable alternative for users needing a reliable network bridge that supports modern Thread and Matter protocols instead of legacy 2.4GHz repeating.
This device is categorized under networking gear as a budget-entry wireless repeater.
