"underlines" in password
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hi Everyone. Just bought this range extender N300 TL-WA855RE. I am setting this up with the app on my Iphone. I hit a snag when the app asked me to create a password for a local account "... using letters, digits and underlines". About underlines, after some research, i don't see a way to have underlined characters in a password as in abcd1234 . Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance.

@Gotalot Hello everyone,
The 'underline' means underscore, which is not necessary for creating a login password, numbers and letters are safe enough as login password for the range extender. ( please avoid using special symbols when create login password for RE, or this warning may pop up)
Make sure your Tether app is up-to-date as the new version APP should have removed this hint when creating login password for RE.
If you could not log into Range extender on Tether or Web, try a factory reset on RE and create a new login password :
Reset: with the RE powered on, use a pin to press the reset hole until all the Leds flash once
If you still have the ' underline' note on the Tether app, may I know the hardware version of your range extender on the back label, and your Tether app version, thank you.

@Tphelp766 Hello,
You could create a login password without underscore, may I know the hardware version of your range extender on the back label, and your Tether app version, thank you.
