The login password was created when you first time access 'tplinkrepeater.net' the web UI of range extender or first time login device in Tether APP.

If the login password says incorrect, try to factory reset the range extender and set up a new login password for your range extender.

Factory Reset Your Extender:

RESET: With the extender powered on, use a pin to press the RESET button (pinhole) until all the LEDs flash once.

Here is a Configuration Guide including reset step that may help : TP-Link Range Extender Setup (Range Extender Mode)

If you still have trouble loggin the extender, can you share a photo of the error message here with us, thanks in advance.
