Configuring the range extender via Tether app is a smart way to remotely access and control your device even when you are not within the range of your network. Before the configuration process of tplinkrepeater.net device, make sure you know the Wi-fi password of both the Wi-fi bands of a router’s network. Without a correct Wi-fi password, you can’t connect your range extender to the router. Users are recommended to configure a different Wi-fi name to the extender as it will allow the host to come to know of the network with which they are connected.
