Model: TL-WA860RE  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: N/A

I haven't used the wi-if extender for a few years and I'm unable to remember the login details. I have done a hard rest and the logins haven't changed.

Hi, you can hold the reset button/hole for 1s to reset it with the extender powered on. 

 

And then you can use the default login password to access it, which is admin.

 

Good day.
