Hi,

Procces was fine, on the screen on my phone was written Upgrade succesfull..So I unplug RE 200 from socket and plug it to the diferent one on the right place (where I wanted to use it). But just power on light is steady shining now. How can I unbrick it?

@jirka1022 Good day,

Please try a factory reset on range extender: Power it on and wait power led to be solid.  Use a pin to push reset hole for about 10 secs until most LEDs flash once which means it resets to factory default.  

Please check if range extender is broadcasting SSID (Wi-Fi name ) like TP-LINK _extender, or TP-link range extender XX.

@jirka1022 Hi, thank you for your reply.

Sorry to say that but it looks hardware failure if no SSID is broadcasting after factory reset, please contact local support or retailer to check warranty:
