Hi, 

I bought a TL-WPA7510 Kit from ebay. I've managed to connect it to my Lan and pair with the extender. I would like to clone my Airport Extreme WiFi network but the only way I can find is to press a WPS button on the router. Thing is the Airport doesn't have one.

 

I tried logging in to the TP-Link and manually changing the Network SSID and password to match the one from the Airport. I don't know if this worked but I was no longer able to log into the TP-Link. I had to Factory Reset it.

 

Is it possible to Manually Clone the Airport Express WiFi Network?

@NeilDeWheel Hello, 

 

Thank you for your detailed post. 

It is recommended to  download this tpPLC Utility and customize wireless settings for powerline units.

And refer to this FAQ to change a WIFI name and password for WiFi powerline unit:
