Bring Dead Zones Back to Life

Tired of Wi-Fi “dead zones”? The TP-Link extender is connected to your router

wirelessly, strengthening its signal and expanding its coverage into areas that could not

Wi-Fi coverage throughout your home or office.

Easy Installation & Quick Position

The extender works with any standard wireless router. Instantly connect the extender

to a router by pressing the router’s WPS button (if available) followed by the extender’s

RE/WPS button. Alternatively, follow the Quick Setup instructions on the extender’s

web management page.

Once the extender is connected to a router, you can relocate it to your preferred location

with no further configuration required. The intelligent signal light can help to find the

best location.
