Model: RE455  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.0.0 Build 20191209 Rel. 52814(6985)

According to the manual if the  RE455  I can use the Range Extender to connect other Wifi devices via WPS to my Home network:

 

 

 

 

 

 

So am I not finding the possibility to connect other Wifi devices like a printer to my Repeater via WPS or is the manual lying ?

Hello   @QuestionLars 

thank you for the feedback, it looks like  the web UI has updated, but you could still enable WPS by pressing the WPS button (Big signal Led on RE455 )on the range extender 

WPS is to set up a connection between range extender and wifi router, if the wifi network device or wifi printer needs to connect to extender’s wifi network, you will need to manually connect to the Wi-Fi by putting in wifi password.

  @Solla-topee I do not want to pair my main Router and the Wifi Extender.

I want to pair another device like a wifi Pritner to the Wifi Extender and that is not possible with a push of a button

  @QuestionLars I see, thank you for the explanation. As range extender does not have this option right now,  I think you may reach printer support for help if the Wireless Printer supports connecting through Wi-Fi network. Thank you for feedback with the manual, I will check with related team and see if that need to be updated .  Have a nice day!
