Hello, how do you locate the second extender?
Usually we suggest you to connect them like extender A )))(((main router )))((( extender B.
Meanwhile, please use the main router's wifi password to set it up;
And please ensure that the firmware of the extender is up to date.
Or try to customize the wireless settings of the main router to give it a go.
May it help.

Yes, you can use two extenders in the same network.
What is the led status of the second unit? Did you connect it to the main router's wifi or the first extender's?
And please use the main router's wifi password to set it up.
Please show us a screenshot of the status page once you logged into the web UI.
And please tell us the model number of your main router.
Good day.

My main router is provided by my local ISP, SFR
the LED status when I try to connect the second unit shows "Power" and "wireless"
if I reset the second unit, the LED "RE" blinks once per second; the blinking stops after a while
I use the option 2 for setup
here is the screen shot:

Hello, there are 3 led lights which should be on at least, including the power, wireless and signal strength led.
The picture is too vague to see it clearly, but it is obviously that there is no password of the main router, is it an open network?
And with the extender powered on, use a pin to press the RESET button for 1 second to reset it, do not press WPS button.
Once you reset it again, please use the main router's wifi password to configure the TL-WA850RE.
Besides, you can refer to the instruction below to do further troubleshooting.

And please tell us the model number and firmware version of the main router.
Good day.
