Hello@Worloth ,

Welcome to our community.

 

For your case, please correctly reset it firstly:

With the power on,use a pin to press the RESET button for 1 second. The extender will reset and reboot.

When you can see TP-Link_Extender on the Wi-Fi list, that means you have reset the extender correctly. Please configure it as below:

Best Regards.
