Make sure you're with the latest FW for your range extender. You can check its model and hardware version on its bottom sticker - details.

If it is TL-WA855RE v5 update to the latest firmware from here. Here's how to update the RE firmware - details.

I have the same problem and I haven't fix it yet.

As soon as I enable extender I can't connect to the main router network from my laptop, I have an error 'Wi-fi doesn't get a valid IP configuration' and it can't be fixed,  and only after turning off the extender I easily can connect to the main router network.

 

the same extender model - TP-LINK TL-WA850RE.

Router - Archer c80.

Hi,

 

In case the hardware version of your TL-WA850RE was 7.x, then updating it to the latest available firmware version should resolve that issue for you.

There is no button 'Update' for extender in 'Tether' application.

Why extender can't be updated by itself with official version?

How should I check current version of firmware of the extender?
