Model: RE220  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I have two RE220's.  Can I change the name of the extender device?  I do not want to change the name of any other device that connects to the extender.  I just want to change the name of the extenders so I can tell them apart.

@kdg2  Hello, 
You could use 'Tether app'to change Wireless settings for range extender:

Or you could change Wireless settings through Web page:

@Solla-topee 

 

So, there is no way to change the name of the extender?  

 

TP Link really needs to allow for that.  I have 2 RE220 devices, and both being the same name, really makes it hard to administer, or know what devices are connecting to what extender.
