Changing the IP address

By default, the Wi-Fi Extender+ is conigured to obtain its IP address automatically from your wireless
router or Access Point (AP) that it connects to. If the wireless router does not have a DHCP server or its
DHCP server is disabled, you can assign a static IP address to the extender.
! We do NOT recommend that you change the extender's IP address unless you are an experienced
network administrator with strong knowledge of IP addressing, subnetting, and DHCP. Incorrect
coniguration can cause performance and network connection issues.
To assign a static IP address:
1. Launch a web browser and enter http://tplinkrepeater.net into the URL ield, then log in using the
admin credentials.
2. Under the Settings tab, go to Network.
3. Under the Network Settings section, select Use the Following IP Address and enter the static IP
addresses in dotted-decimal notation into the following ields.
a.
IP Address: The IP address to be assigned to the extender.
b.
Subnet Mask: The subnet mask associated with the static IP address.
Default Gateway: The gateway address of your wireless router or Access Point.
c.
4. Click to apply your coniguration.
