What we like about Tenda A33

  • Easy installation with a simple one-step setup and WPS button support
  • High-speed WiFi 6 technology (AX3000) providing up to 2976Mbps total speed
  • Smart LED indicator helps find the optimal physical placement for signal quality
  • Includes a Gigabit Ethernet port for fast wired connections to devices like consoles or TVs
  • Versatile operating modes, supporting both range extender and access point (AP) modes
  • Compact design with lower power consumption compared to some competitors

What we don't like about Tenda A33

  • Users have reported regular signal drops in some environments
  • Possible compatibility issues with certain existing network setups
  • Reports of bad quality and non-existent technical support from the brand
  • Limited physical ports, featuring only a single Ethernet port
  • Some users reported buffering issues after firmware updates
  • Device can generate its own address range in AP mode, potentially disrupting the main network

Verdict

The Tenda A33 is a dual-band AX3000 Wi-Fi 6 range extender featuring combined theoretical speeds of up to 2976 Mbps (2402 Mbps on 5GHz and 574 Mbps on 2.4GHz) and support for a 160MHz bandwidth. It is equipped with two 5dBi external antennas designed to cover up to 2,100 sq. ft. and includes a single Gigabit Ethernet port for high-speed wired connections or AP mode. Main pros include its easy setup via WPS or a mobile browser, smart LED indicators for optimal placement, and MU-MIMO technology that supports over 25 simultaneous devices with low latency. Notable cons include its relatively bulky size compared to other plug-in models, the inability to disable specific frequency bands in some modes, and reports of signal strength dropping off quickly on the 5GHz band through physical obstacles.
