TP-Link RE300 Quick Installation Guide

Q1. What should I do if I cannot access the extender’s web
management page?
Make sure your computer or smartphone has connected to the extender’s
network, and not that of your router. If your router and extender share the same
network name, use the Tether app.
If you are using a computer, make sure it is set to obtain an IP address and DNS
server address automatically.
Verify that http://tplinkrepeater.net or http://192.168.0.254 is correctly entered
in the web browser and press Enter. Note that http://192.168.0.254 applies only
for extenders with factory default settings.
Use another web browser and try again.
Reboot or reset the extender and try again.
If you are still having problems, contact our technical support.
Q2. What should I do if the LED doesn’t turn solid on after
completing setup via the Tether app or web browser?
You may have entered incorrect Wi-Fi passwords for your host networks during
the conguration. Check the passwords and try again.
Make sure the extender is close to your router, preferably within 16 feet, and
away from large electrical appliances.
If you have enabled wireless MAC ltering, wireless access control, or access
control list (ACL) on your router, disable them rst, then follow any method on the
front page to complete the conguration.
Try setting up via the WPS button.
Reset the extender and go through the conguration again.
If you are still having problems, contact our technical support.
Q3. How do I reset the extender?
With the extender powered on, use a pin to press the Reset button for 1 second.
The extender will reboot.
