Customize Wireless Settings

The powerline extender's wireless network name (SSID) and password, and security
option are preset in the factory. The preset SSID and password can be found on the
product label and Wi-Fi Info Card. You can customize the wireless settings according
to your needs.
1. Connect to the powerline extender wirelessly. Visit http://tplinkplc.net, and log in with
the password you set for the extender.
2. Go to Wireless > Settings
• To enable or disable the wireless function:
Select the box to enable the wireless Radio of 2.4GHz or 5GHz. Deselect the box to
disable wireless function. If disabled, all wireless settings will be ineffective.
• To change the wireless network name (SSID) and wireless password:
The default SSID is TP-Link_XXXX for 2.4GHz network and TP-Link_XXXX_5G for
5GHz network, and the default password is printed on the label at the side panel of the
extender. You can change the default ones by directly entering new ones in the field.
SSID is up to 32 characters, and the value in both SSID and password is case-sensitive.
Note:
Remember to write down the new SSID and password, for you may be disconnected when new settings
are effective.
To hide SSID:
Select Hide SSID, and your SSID will not be broadcasted. It won't display when you scan
for local wireless network list on your wireless device and you need to manually join the
