Wi-Fi extender Ethernet connection
I have had an Ethernet cable run from my router in my house to my garden office. I paired the extender with my router then took it to the garden room, plugged it into the power and connected it with an Ethernet cable into the new Ethernet port that feeds directly into my home router so it's hardwired basically. The wifi light is red. My smart phone shows the _ext version of my wifi but when I log in I'm not getting wifi. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
Hi,
If you want to connect the RE700 to your router via Ethernet cable, then you need to switch it to "Access Point" mode.
Below is a page out of the official User Guide for the RE700. For further details just download the whole User Guide from www.tp-link.com.
