TL-WA850RE : problem wi-fi connection with a printer EPSON XP 247
2020-12-23 22:50:55
Model: TL-WA850RE  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I 've succesffuly extended my wi-fi signal downstairs (laptop and smartphones are connected to the new wi.fi named like the original+   ..._EXT). Unfortunately I am not able to connect the printer EPSON XP 247( previously connected to the main wifi upstairs): tried to pair pressing wi-fi on the printer and then WPS botton on the router but nothing happens.

Should I press the only botton on the TP_LINK extender? I can't find any "WPS" on TP-Link (TL-WA850RE).

 

Thanks!

Hey the WPS button on the WA850RE is in the middle of the blue LED circle (pic below) just press here

 

 

You may find you need to press WPS on both the main AP and the Repeater first, then on the printer in that order

 

WPS on printers is always a trial and error thing, they cause numerous pains for me!! :)

Ok , I ll try It. Just press it once or hold for a while? Should the repeater start to blink or do something? Thank you ! Andrea

Hey After holding it for 2-3 seconds there should be a flashing light, this indicates it searching for a WPS connection
