tp-link Extender #RE650
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Dear Community,
Recently purchased a tp-link Extender (RE650). My router is an Arris Dual Modem/Router (2.4GHz/5GHz). I was able to connect to the 5GHz but have been
unable to connect to the 2.4GHz. I have tried option 1 and option 2 on the Quick Setup. Note: a few times, for a nono second, the 2.4GHz blue light will flash.
Thanks for any help.

Log into your Arris router and look at the 2.4GHz password to make sure the right one is being used.
Make sure the Arris wireless network names (2.4GHz and 5GHz) are different and not the same. Default the extender by holding the reset pinhole while its plugged in for 10 seconds. Use the Tether app to set up the device.
Once the setup is completely the 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and circular LED should be lit.

Hi,
I recently bought a TP Link extender RE650 and also encounter the same problem as the user above.
Able to log into 5GHz but not 2.4GHz.
My router is ASUS RT AC5300
My ASUS router SSID is name as ASUS_24 and ASUS_50 so I presume the SSID name should not be a problem.
I have reset the RE650 various times, setup using tether app as well as via computer but the problem persist.
Please advice what can I do ???

Try to specify a wireless channel in the router. I've seen that on Pace routers where the extender will not connect if the wireless band channel is set to auto rather then a specific channel.
