4. Relocate the powerline extender to a new location. Connect to the Wi-Fi using the SSID
and password on the product label.

A blinking or red Powerline LED indicates poor signal strength. Move the extender to another location.

5. Enjoy!
Tip: You can add more powerline devices to the existing powerline network by pairing these devices.

Attention

Plug the powerline devices directly into the wall outlets but not the power strips.
For pass through powerline devices, plug the power strips into the integrated electrical sockets of the powerline devices.

Copy Wi-Fi Settings from Router to Extender

If your router supports WPS, you can follow the steps below to automatically copy the router’s Wi-Fi settings (SSID and password) to the powerline extender.

WPS, tp-link

Plug in the powerline extender near your router. Press the WPS button on your router.
Within 2 minutes, press the Wi-Fi button on the extender for 1 second.
When the 2.4GHz Wi-Fi LED and 5GHz Wi-Fi LED on the extender blink quickly for 3 seconds, and then stay on, it’s done!

5 GHz Wi-Fi is not available on single-band products. For multiple-band products, the powerline extender copies by default both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless settings at the same time. If it fails to copy both, your router may be only able to clone one band at a time. Please check your router’s manual for support.

Note: The wireless settings can also be configured through the powerline extender’s web interface or through the tpPLC app. You can download the app from the App Store or Google Play, or simply scan the QR code.
