SimpliSafe Now Sells A Wi-Fi Extender?
When did SimpliSafe start selling Wi-Fi extenders?
https://simplisafe.com/wifi-extender
Looks like this is a TP-Link product (with an older logo?) and not a SimpliSafe branded product. Is there anything special about this or specific to SimpliSafe versus other Wi-Fi extenders?

Yep, there's nothing different about the Wireless Extender versus what you'd find at other retailers. We had actually been using these units in Customer Service, as a possible troubleshooting step for users with extreme range difficulties. Obviously we wouldn't put it on our website if it wasn't compatible, but we can say it's been extensively tested with SimpliSafe systems.

Extenders work well. But I think Mesh works better though they can be more expensive. I use the Amazon Echo system, and I like it very much.

I just contacted Simply Safe customer support. In answer to my question of whether this extender works with all Wi-Fi connected devices, the answer was "no, it only works with the SS cameras". Is that true? If it is a generic extender, wouldn't it work with any Wi-Fi devices?
