Key Features
True Wi-Fi 6 Speeds up to 1501 Mbps
The AX1500 delivers real dual-band Wi-Fi 6 performance with 1201 Mbps on 5 GHz for smooth 4K streaming and gaming, plus 300 Mbps on 2.4 GHz for reliable coverage through walls and floors—doubling the speed of most older extenders in Kenya.
Dual-Polarized Antennas with Beamforming
Two high-gain omnidirectional antennas plus Beamforming technology actively focus the signal toward your phones, laptops, and smart TVs, extending coverage up to 50–80 % farther than standard extenders while keeping connections strong even in concrete houses.
One-Touch WPS Pairing or Gigabit Ethernet Backhaul
Setup takes seconds—just press the WPS button on your router and the extender, or use the Xiaomi Home app. The built-in Gigabit Ethernet port lets you connect it via cable for zero wireless loss, turning it into a powerful wired access point for gaming consoles or desktop PCs.
EasyMesh for Seamless Whole-Home Roaming
Pair multiple AX1500 units (or with any EasyMesh-compatible router) to create a single unified network name. Devices automatically switch to the strongest signal as you move between rooms—no drops during Zoom calls or WhatsApp video.
Smart Signal Indicator and WPA3 Security
Four color-coded LEDs instantly show signal strength so you know the perfect spot to plug it in. WPA3-SAE encryption plus hidden SSID options keep your extended network safe from neighbors and hackers, giving you peace of mind on open estates or apartments.

FAQs
Does it work with any router brand (Safaricom, Airtel, Faiba, Telkom) or only Xiaomi routers?
It works perfectly with every router sold in Kenya—Safaricom ZTE/Huawei, Airtel, Faiba, Telkom, TP-Link, D-Link, etc. Just press WPS on your router and the extender, or set it up through the Xiaomi Home app in under 2 minutes.
Will it cut my internet speed in half like older extenders?
No. When connected via the Gigabit Ethernet cable (wired backhaul), you get almost 100 % of your original speed. Even on wireless 5 GHz, most users in Nairobi apartments lose only 10–20 % compared to being right next to the main router.
Can I create a proper mesh network so my phone doesn’t drop when moving between rooms?
Yes—if your main router supports EasyMesh (e.g., some Safaricom 4G/5G routers from late 2024 onward or Xiaomi AX series), you can add multiple AX1500 units and get one single network name with seamless roaming. If your router doesn’t support mesh, it still works great as a normal extender with the same SSID.
