My router is a WR740N and I have two extenders a WA730RE and a WA850RE. I want to daisy chain the devises so that the extender 850RE is chained to the router and 730RE is chained to 850RE. Therefore, I believe I have to switch the router and 850RE to be WDS, is this correct?
I have tried to login to tplinklogin.net from an XP and Windows 7 PC and I get the above front page - with adverts and I can't get any further.
The next option I have tried is to type in http://192.168.1.1 which is the default gateway and an 'airos' window opens and asks for login and password. Typing in admin and admin returns with invalid credentials. I have tried the same login process with both extenders with a lan cable connected to PC's running W7 and XP
I cannot remember changing the login and password for any of the devices, so do I need to reset all devices to factory defaults?
Also once I finally get into access the router settings, how can I switch from the router to the extender, is it easy?
I really would appreciate some help as I have been trying to resolve this problem for 2 days, thanks
