Model: AC500  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

This is a question about the AC750 extender (that option not available in the 'Model' field)

 

I have a dead spot in an upstairs bedroom, so was consdering the AC750. However what I don't want is another network to be created as I use an iPad in bed in the morning to read the news, and don't want to keep asking it to join a different netword from when I'm using ithe iPad downstairs.

 

So the question is, does the extender just extend the existing netword or does it create a new network. I can put a powerline device in the bedroom so can use a LAN cable if necessary.

 

Thanks for any help.

Hi

 

The extender's signal source is the router's Wi-Fi, but the extender will have its own Wi-Fi name.
If you have not purchased it yet, it is recommended that you contact the router's support to confirm whether the router supports mesh and whether there are any extender recommendations that support mesh, because there is only one Wi-Fi name in the mesh network.
If you have already purchased it, you could try changing the extender's Wi-Fi name to the same as the router's to test whether it meets your needs:
Via Tether APP, please refer to How to change wireless settings of TP-Link range extender on Tether App.
Via Web Management page, please refer to How to change wireless settings of TP-Link range extender on Web.
