TL-WA850RE 300Mbps Universal Wireless N Range Extender User Guide 2) Try to obtain an IP address and gateway; if succeed, open your web-browser, enter the default domain http://tplinkextender.net in the address field and get logged in. If you are unable to log in, please RESET the device, and then use the default IP address to get into the web-based configuration page, reconfigure the device. 3) Feel free to contact our technical support, if the problem still persists. T4. How can I know that my wireless signal has been repeated and boosted by TL-WA850RE? An easy way is to compare the signal strength of your target wireless network (symbolized by its SSID), with TL-WA850RE in operation vs. out of operation. Before comparison, you'd better make sure your computer can obtain an IP address from your target wireless network and thus access the Internet, either via TL-WA850RE or without. T5. Will the Range Extender work if I connect the ETHERNET port of it to the router via Ethernet cable? Sorry, it won't work. The Range Extender is designed to connect wirelessly to the router, while the ETHERNET port is designed to connect with a wired device, like Internet TV, Gaming console, DVR and so on. T6. Why does the wireless transmission rate speed down, while the wireless signal is stronger after repeated by TL-WA850RE? In compliance with the wireless transmission protocol, all the Range Extender devices are set to work in half-duplex instead of full-duplex mode. In other words, the Range Extender has to process one-way communication between your root Wireless router (or AP) and the terminal clients; so the transmission time will be double-increased, while the speed will be decreased. TP-LINK recommends that you connect to the Range Extender when your home network connection is poor, or when you want a larger wireless coverage to eliminate "dead zones". 37
