Model: TL-WA850RE  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Helo,

 

I am unable to install my tp link extender following the directions in the manual. When i go to connections on my computer it finds the extender. Going further i have to go to the page tplinkrepeater.net. The system there searches for the available connections. At that point it goes wrong for the tplink connection is not reflected. I have tried resetting the device. I have tried WPS. Nothing works. I trier the extender in another environment and there it seems to work. What am i doing wrong?

The wireless led should stop blinking ,but this is not the case with me!

Hello, what is the led status of TL-WA850RE? 

 

Can it detect the wireless network of main router when you set up the TL-WA850RE?

 

Have you ever tried to change the wireless channel or name of the host network? 

 

And please ensure that the firmware is up to date. 

 

Good day.

Thanks for your valued reply. 

 

From the led status you mentioned, the TL-WA850RE should be working fine now. 

 

You can connect a computer to it directly and verify whether you can access internet.

 

Good day.
