Hi,

I just bought a TL-WA830RE and I'm using it as extender on an existing Wireless Network. It works fine when I'm accessing the internet through our Windows based laptops but our apple phones, ipads and Macbooks will not connect to the internet through the extender.

How can I set up the extender so I can both use PC's and Apple products on it?
