Step-by-Step Setup Guide

1. Power Up the Extender: Plug the TP-Link AC750 WiFi extender into a power outlet near your router. This location is crucial as it ensures minimal signal loss between the router and the extender.

2. Connecting to Your Router:

Locate the WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) button on your router. On some TP-Link products, this button may be labeled as “WPS” or “PUSH.”

Press the WPS button on your router. On your extender, press and hold the button for a few seconds until it turns a different color or displays a notification on the built-in LED display.

Verify that the extender is successfully connected to your router. If your extender requires a different Wi-Fi band and only one band indicator is on, refer to step 1 above to connect to the other band.

Tips for Troubleshooting

If the WPS button is not available, connect to your router using the Wi-Fi settings menu on your extender.

Ensure that both the router and the extender are within a signal range for successful connection.

Configuring the Extender via Web Interface

1. Accessing the Web Management Page: Use a Wi-Fi enabled device to access the web management page of the range extender. This can be done by opening a web browser and entering the default IP address of the extender (usually 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1).

2. Connecting to Your Host Router:

Enter the SSID and password of your host router’s 2.4GHz network (or 5GHz if supported). If your host router does not support a 5GHz network, click ‘Skip’.

Repeat step 2, but enter the SSID and password of your host router’s 5GHz network if supported.

3. Customizing the Extender’s Network Settings:

Select default or customize the SSIDs and passwords for the extended 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks.

Click ‘Next’ to save your settings. The corresponding LEDs should light up to indicate successful connection.

Conclusion

Successfully setting up the TP-Link AC750 WiFi extender enhances your home network coverage and performance. By following the steps outlined in this guide, you can ensure that your extended network is both reliable and secure. Happy surfing!
