Model: RE450  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

 

OK, so I'm 68 - not the best age to be trying new tricks.  However, I have managed to get the RE450 to link via the WPS button on my BT Home Hub.  I went to the WiFi icon on my [Apple] laptop and there was TP-Link_8688_5G.  I selected it and a message came up 'The Wi-Fi network "TP-Link_8688_5G requires a WPA2 password.'  What is this?  Is it the wireless network/SSIS on my Home Hub, the wireless password/key on my Home Hub, the Admin Password for the Hub manager, or a password I make up?  

 

If anyone out there can help me, I would be so grateful.

 

Once I have added whatever the correct passord is, is it plain sailing after that?

Hi, it is the wifi password of your BT hub. You need use the same wifi password to join the extender's wifi. 

 

Good day.
