Model: TL-WA850RE  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: ?

Hi,

 

I can't get the tether app to recognise the extender or get into it to manage the device in any way. I've reset it and it connects to the Wi-fi fine but it can't be managed. 
any  help would be very much appreciated 

 

thanks

Hello, what is the hardware version of the TL-WA850RE? Here is the instruction to get it: https://www.tp-link.com/support/faq/46/

 

Please ensure that your cellphone has connected to the extender.

 

You can hard reset the TL-WA850RE to give it a go as well. 

 

Below is the compatibility of Tether app, you can verify whether it is supported.
