Change name of extender?

2021-09-03 20:09:26

Model: RE220

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

I have two RE220's. Can I change the name of the extender device? I do not want to change the name of any other device that connects to the extender. I just want to change the name of the extenders so I can tell them apart.

@kdg2 Hello,
You could use 'Tether app'to change Wireless settings for range extender:

Or you could change Wireless settings through Web page:

@Solla-topee

So, there is no way to change the name of the extender?

TP Link really needs to allow for that. I have 2 RE220 devices, and both being the same name, really makes it hard to administer, or know what devices are connecting to what extender.
