hey so i am trying to connect my extender to my router but its not working. My roomate had it working yesterday but since we reseted it because the connection was extremely poor we cant seem to get it working again. i connected it through the app and i paired it to the router but i doesnt want to do its job. I can connect to the router and it there is a connection to the internet, but as soon as i connect it to the extender it says there is no internet.

Hi @extendersrtrash,

Thank you for reporting your issue to our community.

 

If you cannot configure the TP-Link range extender successfully, please refer to the situations below to troubleshoot.

Case 1: The extender's default Wi-Fi network (TP-Link_Extender_XXXX) doesn't appear.

    a. Press the RESET button (hole) with a pin for 1 second (all lights on the extender would flash) to return the extender to factory default.

b. Put your device next to the extender.

Case 2: The 2.4GHz/5GHz light on the extender is still off after setup. No main network connection. 

    a. 2.4G/5G light not up means the extender is not connected to the router. Connect your phone to the host router's Wi-Fi to verify it's working.

    b. Forget the router's Wi-Fi on the phone and try reconnecting to ensure the Wi-Fi password is correct.

    c. Change the router's 2.4G Wi-Fi channel to 1/6/11 and 5G to 36/40/44/48. You may refer to this link or contact router support to change: Changing Channel and Channel Width on a TP-Link Router (new logo)  

    d. Disable security settings like Mac filtering or Access Control on the host router. Please contact the router support for guidance.

Note: If there is more than one extender, ensure that their Wi-Fi names are different from the main router's so that they can connect to the router's Wi-Fi without issue. Follow this link to change the extenders' Wi-Fi name: How to change wireless settings of TP-Link range extender on Tether APP
