If the wifi led does not come on after you tried reboot/reset and wifi button, there may have something wrong.
You can contact the retailer or the local tech support to verify whether a replacement is qualified.

What is the led status of the TL-WPA8630KIT? You can hold the wifi button for 5s to turn on the wifi function if wifi led is off.
Do you mean the tpPLC utility on the computer can detect the adapter but the tpPLC app on smart phone cannot?
If so, please ensure that they are in the same subnet. You can connect your smart phone to its wifi to give it a go.
Besides, unlike extender unit uses bin file to upgrade the firmware, the firmware of Ethernet powerline adapter is made up of two parts: PIB and NVM.
Good day.

@Kevin_Z thanks for you answer,
the extender has only the 2 left leds are green.
the plc ios app doesn't find any device (the phone is conected to the primary wifi)
a pc conected to the 8630 by rj45 can reach internet and on these device the plc pc utility can see and calculate the connection speed between the plc kit.
I already try push all the buttons. I try the reset secuence. And 30-30-30 reset. Nothing happens.
I can not access the extender 8630 web interface, the with the previous configured ip, the default ip, I serched the network for device with no success.
this is a bad upgrade. But how can I reverse it?

Hello, you mentioned that there are 2 leds are green on the extender, but the pc is connected to the 8630 by wired cable, so the 2 leds should be power led and ethernet led. Which is to say, the wifi led and the powerline led are off;
Cause you see with windows utility can find the adapters, you can use the windows utility to reset them;
Or you can power cycle the adapters and then hold the reset button for 15s;
After that, please verfiy whether the TL-WPA8630KIT works properly.
Good day.
