Model : TL-WPA281

Hardware Version : V1

Firmware Version :

ISP : Sky


I have a WPA271 extender working great in my home - cloned the router first time - no problem.

A few months later I bought another, to extend the wifi to another dead spot. This one won't clone, the light just keeps flashing slowly, but doesn't seem to see the WPS signal from the router.

Could this be because I already have another cloned? Maybe you're only permitted one? It generates the TP-LINK network ok, but I want it to be a seamless transfer of wifi through the house.

Oh, and I've tried the manual set-up thing, but it won't recognise the 192.168.1.1 address, and I have a Mac, so no supporting software.

Anyone able to help please?

There is MAC utility. Now you can run the utility, login its webpage and change SSID&secure the network. ;)

Mavis - you are a genius. Downloaded the software, reconfigured the WPA271, all good. Seamless access throughout.

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond
