@Undertaker did a few simple range tests. This is the result: 1. Place: [Tuya Zigbee Repeater](https://de.aliexpress.com/i/4001308032777.html) with modification of the antenna 2. Place: [Osram Wall Plug](https://www.amazon.de/Osram-schaltbare-fernbedienbar-Lichtsteuerung-kompatibel/dp/B074PZLX2P) 3. Place: Tuya Zigbee Repeater with no modification 4. Place: [IKEA Tradfri Repeater](https://www.ikea.com/nl/nl/p/tradfri-signaalversterker-10400408/) Another Zigbee Repeater: [ZigBee CC2530+CC2592 Long Range Router Bundle 20cm/5dBi](https://shop.codm.de/bundles/zigbee/router/26/zigbee-cc2530-cc2592-long-range-router-bundle-20cm/5dbi) Some more information about the mentioned devices and the test you can find [here](https://community.homey.app/t/hot-oder-schrott/17529/398) and [here](https://community.homey.app/t/hot-oder-schrott/17529/397) (sorry only in German). Personally, I don’t like the Ikea Tradfri Repeater very much, because it makes a power outlet useless. At most, you can charge or power other devices via USB. Therefore, I would rather prefer the Osram WallPlugs. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.homey.app/t/app-aqara-xiaomi-smart-home-simplify-your-life-with-a-smarter-home/156)._
