Relocate the extender to the Wi-Fi "dead" zone. Connect your devices to the
internet using the default SSIDs (network name) and password on the label at
the side of the extender.
SSID:TP-Link_XXXX
SSID:TP-Link_XXXX_5G
Wireless Password:XXXXXXXX
Tip:
If you cannot find the SSIDs in your Wi-Fi network list, your new extender
has automatically copied over the existing wireless settings. In this case,
use the SSID and password of your existing powerline network to connect.
If you want to unify your Wi-Fi networks, refer to the back page for
instructions.
Attention
1. Use the product only in the upright direction.
2. Plug powerline devices into wall outlets instead of power strips.
Note: Using power strip will affect network performance or even cause connection drops.
