Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version:

I am finding it impossible to set up a RE360 extender.

 

I have tried both methods and nothing works.

 

When I use the WPS button method, the front LED blinks slowly for 2 minutes then goes off. The extender is less than 2 meters from the wireless router.

 

When I use the wifi connection method, I can see both 2.4GHz and 5GHz with strong signals. I can connect my PC to them without any trouble. However, when I try to go to tplinkrepeater.net or 192.168.0.1, my browser cannot bring up the login window.

 

I've also repeated both methods after resetting the extender with a paperclip.

 

Can anyone give me any help on what I might be doing wrong?

 

Thanks.

Please give it a go with steps below:

 

1. With RE360 powered on, hold the reset button/hole for 1s to hard reset it.

 

2. Connect your laptop or cellphone to the extender and click here to get the instruction to login. If failed, please change another computer or web browser to give it a go.

Note: You can use both 192.168.0.254 and tplinkrepeater.net to login.

 

3. Then you can login to the web UI or use the Tether app to configure it. Instructions as below:

Note: Please use the main router's wifi password to configure it. 

 

May it help and have a nice day.

Thanks! It did work.

 

Following the instructions didn't help, but changing computer did. My initial PC runs Microsoft Edge. It got me nowhere. However, when I tried with my Android tablet, it worked first time!

 

Cheers!
