This article will show you how to change the wireless settings of the TP-Link range extender on the Tether App.

For Tether APP:

  • Open Tether app
  • Tap on the extender to log in. If prompted the password would be admin or the new password you have created.
  • Tap on Extended Network 
  • change the Network Name for your Extended Network.

Alternative:

  • Open Tether App
  • Tap on the Extender.  You may be required to sign in.
  • Tap on Tools on the bottom of main screen of TP-Link range extender.
  • Tap Extended Network and change the wireless network name.

 

Note: The wireless password of the extender cannot be changed. It will be the same password as the one used on the host network.
