How do I check if it's US or EU?

On the back label, next to the model, you will see (US) or (EU). Also you can compare your firmware version with the US website or an EU country website, see if the firmware of your extender belongs to which version.

I have a MacBook Air late 2010 running on High Sierra 10.13.1 and I can't connect because it says my password is invalid even though it's right.
I have a TL-WA850RE (UK) Ver 4.0
I purchased this mid-October 2017
Please help
Thanks

take a look at the conversation above, this firmware worked for me. you have to install it in the repeater with the ethernet cable.

I’m a bit of a n00b at this, sorry. What’s a repeater? Also, my WiFi extender is different to yours so would this software still work? I have a TL-WA850RE. Thanks!

Hi,

I'm also looking for some rescue for a brand new TL-WA850RE EU Ver 4.0 that doesnt work with MacOS, and got "bad password" issue..

I installed some
850rev4-up-ver1-0-0-P1[20171116-rel36232] that i found in TPLink site, but no results :(

Dear @TP-Admin do you have any beta firmware for 850RE? or i can go with firmware for 855RE from above?

Thanks in advance for any help!

@ellesappelle i found solution here: http://forum.tp-link.com/showthread.php?100901-ASAP-Passwords-and-wifi-not-working-on-mac
there is a beta firmware link that worked for me finally and all my OSX devices works!

--------

btw. why they do not drop this on www. i was searching a lot found nothing, talk to my Polish support and thet did not knew about any BETA that works. TPLINK post some new firmware from november 2017 that didnt worked, and this BETA is older and it works thankfully. @TP-admin this BETA should be available on your official www!
