TP-Link Extender Setup
About TP-Link Extender Setup
TP-LINK Wireless Range Extender TL-WA730RE is designed to establish an advanced wireless
network with wider coverage and further range, building a wireless infrastructure instead of lots
of wires.
It provides Range Extender Mode as default wireless mode, working as a "relay station" to pick
up wireless signals from a network's base router or access point, and repeat the signal flawlessly
to previously unreachable or hard-to-wire areas. It also features its auto-repeater function,
connecting the unsecured network instantly at a push of Range Extender Button on the exterior.
Step 1 Collecting information of Root Router:
Before configuration, please get the right information of the Root Router:
(Here is an example as below)
 LAN IP: 192.168.1.254
 SSID: 2WIRE_TEST
 Encryption Type: WPA2-PSK with AES
 Passphrase: testtplink (The security information is very important, please make sure
there is no doubt)
Step 2 Assign a static IP address on MAC computer
 Connect the computer to the Range Extender with an Ethernet cable. And turn off
Airport from the root router.
 Since the DHCP function on the Range Extender is disabled by default, we have to
manually assign an IP address as 192.168.0.x on the computer to match the default
IPaddress of Range Extender.
Note: For TL-WA730RE, default address is 192.168.1.254 , you may assign the MAC
computer's IP with 192.168.1.100.
1. Click the Apple menu then select System Preferences.

2. When the System Preferences screen appears, please look for Network and click it in
Internet & Wireless section.
3. Under the Network screen, please select Ethernet. Please select "Manually", and then fill in
the IP address (192.168.0.100), Subnet Mask (255.255.255.0). At last, click Apply.

Step 3 Configuration on Range Extender (TL-WA830RE for example):
1. Logon the Range Extender's management page:
(Open Safari, type in http://192.168.0.254 (the default IP of TL-WA830RE), the default
username and password are both "admin");

Click Network:
Please make sure the Range Extender's IP address is in the same IP segment with the Root
Router to avoid the IP conflict. In this instance, we can change TL-WA830RE’s IP to
"192.168.1.250". Then click Save.
Reconfigure MAC computer's address to logon Range Extender's manage page.
Here TL-WA830RE's IP has been changed to 192.168.1.250, so we need to change MAC
computer's address to 192.168.1.100

4. Go to Wireless-Wireless Settings, SelectRange Extender as the Operation Mode. Then
click Search button.
5. Select the SSID of your root wireless and click on Connect. At last, click Save.
Go to Wireless -> Wireless Security page.

The Security settings on the Range Extender should be exactly the same as the root router. Please
contact the support of the router to check it if you are not sure.
Here we select WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK, and Encryption AES. input the password "testtplink" in
thePSK Password field. Then click Save.
7. Go to System Tools-> Reboot page, click on Reboot button to reboot it.
About 1minute later, the Range Extender should get working properly with the Root Router. You
can test as below:
Go toSystem Tools->Diagnostic, in the IP address/Domain Namebar, type in the root router's
IP address:192.168.1.254, click on theStart bottom.
8. After TL-WA830RE is done, on MAC computer, please go back to Network ->Ethernet,
select IPv4 back to Using DHCP.
