Model: TL-WA850RE  
Hardware Version: V6
Firmware Version: Not reading the extender

I tried to configure the new WA850RE and it's not working.

Hi,

 

It might be helpful if you tell us at which point during the configuration you've got stuck.

 

Let's say you start the Quick Setup.
Do you see a list of nearby wireless networks that includes the wireless network of your own router?


If your network is shown, then you select it and enter the password for your wireless network. Does that still work?


Next you should be shown a summary screen with all information and a [SAVE] button. After you click [SAVE] it will show some progress screen for a little while and then say something like "Congratulations!" Please connect to the extended network.

 

Is your wireless client device able to "see" the extended wireless network? Can it connect to the extended wireless network successfully?
