Good day.

Thank you very much for your patience.

If your computer supported Ethernet connection, please connect the computer via Ethernet cable to 850RE;

(If not, please look for the default Wi-Fi SSID like TP-Link extender_2.4ghz without any security and get connected first even through there is no internet on the default Wi-Fi;)

Then, please log in via http://tplinkrepeater.net ;  (username and password are admin/admin)

After log in, please run the quick set up and choose the main router’s Wi-Fi as host network and input the password;

PS: the set up video: https://www.tp-link.com/en/support/download/tl-wa850re/#video

Thank you very much.
