Hi, upon checking, TL-WA860RE V6 doesn't have the option to disable extended network, we have reported the documentation issue to related department to update it.

 

For your case, it is recommended to hide the extended network, and I noticed that you have already checked "Hide SSID Broadcast", client devices will not see the extended WiFi name.
