Hello, before the configuration, the default SSID of this extender should be named as TP-Link_Extender_xxxx, please reset it as per the QIG or UG if you cannot find it.

 

But you will no longer see this SSID after it is successfully configured, and you may check below to see if it is running properly:

How to configure my Range Extender via Web GUI

 

Note:
Please use your home wifi password to configure the 855RE.

 

If the extender still doesn't work, kindly tell me the LEDs on the extender and show us the screenshot of the extender main page.

I have sent the product back to the store and will buy another. The support tel no for south africa was not operational and neither was the online chat. I will not support a product that doesn't support me.
