I just bought a second hand RE190. I connected it to the router with WPS. Is it necessary to download the app?

Thanks for this video. You are far better than the technicians at TP Link. I would return the extender without this video. This video is far better than the videos of TP Link. Your video is easy to follow. TP Link please pay this Guy.

[@Tips2Fix]

Thank you for sharing your experience , i love this comment ! This kind of comments it energise me to do more 😍 Thats good idea i will write to TP Link team 😄

[@RichardMannPC]

I searched several videos before finding this one. The others spent most of not all their times discussing whether you should buy one. This one walked me through after I had my router replaced.

Hi you did the sync using wifi password?

I was struggling to setup my extender after my router password was set. You video helped me sort this issue in simple steps.

[@bharathramach1105]

Thanks Tips 2 Fix. I was struggling to configure my TP link wifi range extender, and this video addressed exactly that. Very well explained, and loved the step by step process. Kudos to you!

After spending many hours trying to connect my VPN and not my main router this video solved my problem ! Cannot express my thanks to you for going through this for us all who are drowning in printed and confusing papers! BRILLIANT VIDEO and very well presented...😁😁🙏

[@philoso377]

Remember before finishing demonstration run a speed test comparison with/without the extender turned on within the same room where our home WiFi router and a smart phone are.

[@chrisalias4110]

I just covered two pieces of cardboard about 14’x8” with Aluminum foil, and I keep them wherever I am in the house . Works great, wave it around your iPad or iPhone and watch the WiFi signal shoot to the top bar. It brings the signal through the walls. Found this cheap trick on the Internet.

So satisfying finding an actual helpful video for things like these

[@JackRavage]

Best description of connection methods! Good job. (Choose #3!)

[@startingfingerstyle]

Many thanks. My new fibre broadband seemed plagued by quite a drop off in speed and signal strength between the downstairs router and the upstairs office. I ordered the same model as you demonstrate here and did method three. Worked exactly as you show. Much less drop off now. Very pleased.

[@stepbrotherwhatareyoudoing4866]

I saw your video this night and bought exact the same extender . Works perfect thx to share this

[@milkcartonmagic6316]

Hi, this is a shout out for Tips 2 fix. I have just installed my TP link and it is working perfectly. I used the phone method and followed the video instructions. Why the shout out? Well, I tried two other videos but to no avail, however, his very clear instructions helped me out. I would add one thing. If your TPlink doesn't work in the intended room, connect it to a socket nearer the router. It will still work in the intended room.

[@johnboyc5]

I’ve been wondering about the thing you added. I’m trying to extend the WiFi out to my garage which is now a sound proof studio that is about 30-50 feet from my modem inside my house so I was curious where I’d put the extender and if the signal would be able to reach. From your experience what do you think?

[@milkcartonmagic6316]

@@johnboyc5 hi John, I don't profess to be an expert but it would seem that connecting closer to the modem would work. Failing that there is the " bells and whistles' option boost's the wi-fi to everywhere in the vicinity but it costs 3 times the price. I was fortunate to buy mine from a shop which offered to let me try the single option first before the multi option. Is a cable out of the question ❓ Best of luck.

[@SuperJJ37]

Perfect explanation and demonstration! Keep up the good work!

[@rahulvashist1102]

Perfect video 🎉 explained 3 ways of connecting. Loved it. Very helpful. What is the ethernet port on the extender for? Can I connect my main router to the extender using a LAN cable to provide the extender a better signal?

[@Tips2Fix]

Glad you liked it Ethernet port its to recive internet via lan also

[@karabomakhetha]

Thanks bro you a genius 😂😂🔥👌 I have been trying to connect for the past 2 hours

[@JojoFanboy1]

I have a question, when you use the 3rd method, can you disconnect the extender from the power source and transfer it to a different area. will it still be connected? or will i have to reconfigure again?

[@Mikeycambovideos]

Can you change the network name on the extender? Without changing the name on the original router?

[@frazerchanda1067]

We appreciate you for this is nice video. Very clear. Am going to work on it.

[@xtrathings5552]

can you please answer? so when I setup this I can plug it anywhere right? (of course in range of main source router) and second question: my router is a bit far from the room where I need internet and it has connection only at entrance, will this extender work for me or wifi repeater would be a better choice?

[@Tips2Fix]

Wifi repiter wifi extender almost the smae thing the same story wifi extender its good this brend its okay , i will also do a review for xiaomi , video will be ready this days

[@tabasumcarpentry5336]

hi bro can we connect two range extender with a single network switch via a ethernet cables. both range extenders connect with the main Router. and both feed the internet net to the same network switch via ethernet cable. and the all the connected devices to the network switch get internet will connecting to range extenders to one network switch improve the speed and reliability

[@lynnloui35]

Dealing with same issue..can only connect to ethernet. I have two extenders they are PC-link Deco version but they are a different model AC1200 model Deco M4?? Our internet got shut off via spectrum for a few days and we had to go back to regular router without extenders bc we cant get the extenders up and running. I will try this but not sure what to do about the ethernet

does it function as a mesh? or is there a different way to set up for mesh? do you have to manually connect to the EXT. wifi or does it automatically connect to the EXT wifi like a mesh is suppose to do? The one i got says its a mesh...going to set it up now...

Can l use a range extender to poach an open WiFi that's about 30meter away from me?

If extender can catch the other modem waves with good quality strength than it will extend strongly good qualty, the same quality that extender recive !! If recive bad internet (low signal strength) will extend strongly bad internet

Question: What if I just connect a LAN cable from the extender straight into my laptop ? I know if you connect from a router there's no need for set up or anything but because of my position, connect from router to laptop is not possible but from the extender is possible. So is there any extra setup or do I just like that and plug it in ?

[@teddymorales1388]

I have the same question, did you get an answer for this? If so pls tell me

[@Mufti2times]

Just plug it in it’ll work

[@SimplyTired7331]

So i don't need a modem for this? Just use the wifi extender, since I also use laptop and I have wireless wifi to the router.

[@irish66]

Hello. So I have the extender plugged in. There is a light on, But it doesn't look like my desktop computer is recognising it, as it does not show up if go to "open network and internet settings/change adapter options. The router does not have WPS button, but a reset button.

[@ericgarrison3569]

U plug the usb into the computer and u click on your wifi bar hit connect to extender so it can pair , it doesn't just pair by u ending up just plugging into the wall

[@irish66]

@@ericgarrison3569 hI. i returned it to the shop I had bought it from, because I found it to be of no more value than the repeater which I already had. But before that a lady from the company TP-link brought me through the steps to set it up. I'm not quiet sure what USB you are referring to though. I have returned to the repeater, which is much the same in look and connections as the TP extender, and there is no usb involved.

[@CriZuu.]

Guys I've heard that with cable it will do so much better. However If the router is I the other room how can I use a enthernet cable from the extender to the router pls explain?

[@StormEagleCH]

When I try to connect to the extender it keeps asking for a password and I have no idea what it is. Most places say it's "admin" but that's not enough characters. It's not the account or the router password either. Any idea what it's supposed to be?
