The RE305 goes where the router's signal is still strong and carries the network on into rooms where it used to drop out. The 5 GHz band at up to 867 Mbit/s suits streaming and video calls, while 2.4 GHz at up to 300 Mbit/s passes through walls better. The two external antennas can be turned to push the signal in the direction you need. The RJ-45 port also lets you connect a wired device when needed.
Flats and small houses where the router's Wi-Fi does not reach a room or the balcony; people who need a simple add-on for their existing network; and owners of a TV or console who want to connect it by cable over a short distance. The speed is enough for everyday home use.

Wi-Fi standards are backward compatible, so the extender will connect to a newer router, but it works at 802.11ac level itself.
The RJ-45 port is 10/100 Mbit/s, which limits a wired device to 100 Mbit/s.
The manufacturer does not specify a range. It depends on where the router is, the walls and where the extender is placed.
