AVM FRITZ!Repeater 1200 AX

The Fritz Repeater 1200 AX is the first choice if you want to expand your Wi-Fi 6 network. It delivers practical data rates and a significant speed advantage over an 11ac WLAN. Further plus points are the simple operation - primarily in a mesh network with a Fritzbox - as well as the regular firmware updates.

Large households with a FritzBox make a safe choice with the FritzRepeater 6000. For most, however, the performance of the FritzRepeater 1200 AX should be sufficient. Speedport users are in the right place with Telekom's Speed Home WLAN. And if you have set up a Devolo network of Magic Powerline adapters, the Devolo WiFi 6 Repeater 5400 is the best choice.

The FritzRepeater 1200 AX is the recommendation for all FritzBox owners for whom the top models FritzRepeater 3000 AX and 6000 are too expensive. The small plug scored points in the tested with a surprisingly high performance.

The Fritz Repeater 1200AX is the first choice if you want to expand your Wi-Fi 6 network. It delivers practical data rates and a clear speed advantage over an 11ac WLAN. Other plus points are the simple operation - especially in a mesh network with a Fritzbox - and the regular firmware updates.

In repeater mode at the 20-metre point, it delivered satisfactory to good WLAN throughput with reasonably low power consumption from the mains (see table, client at 26 metres). If it is connected to the router as an access point via LAN cable, the speed increases dramatically. If you want to expand your Wi-Fi 6 WLAN, you can't go wrong with the 1200 AX.

If you don't need a third WLAN module for a stronger wireless connection, you can do without the more expensive FRITZ!Repeater 6000 and do very well with the cheaper 1200AX.
