  1. Resetting TP-Link Extender for a New Router Connection When a new Wi-Fi router is put into service, it usually involves reconfiguring all your devices. This can be frustrating when your TP-Link extender keeps trying to connect to the old network. Don't worry; you need to know how to reset WiFi extender to new router. A reset will clear all the prior settings and allow your extender to quickly and easily connect to the new upgraded Wi-Fi router while providing extended coverage. Plug the extender into a power outlet that has a reliable supply of power. Wait for the LED indicators to settle down. Then, find the reset button, which is usually located on either the back or the bottom of the extender. Using a pin or paperclip, press and hold down that button till the lights begin to flash, for around 10-15 seconds. This is a factory reset TP Link extender, thus restoring it to factory-default settings. Once the lights go back to being steady, the extender is ready to be configured. The next step is to have your device connected to the default network provided by the extender. Check available Wi-Fi connections on your phone or computer and join the extender's open network. Launch your browser and type http tplinkrepeater net in the URL section, bringing you to the configuration portal. Enter default credentials. When you have entered the Wi-Fi configuration, select the Wi-Fi network of the new router from the list. Input the appropriate password, then save the setting. The extender will reboot and begin to extend the signal of the router throughout your home. This is the typical process to reset the TP Link extender for new router setups. A few tips: Make sure the router is powered on and broadcasting Wi-Fi before you begin the process of resetting the extender.

Reset is not limited to new routers. If your extender keeps disconnecting, slows down, or displays inconsistent LED blinking signals, a reset may help resolve an underlying glitch. Think of it as refreshing the extender so it can function better. If you need to learn how to reset the WiFi extender to a new router as a solution, you can avoid repeated connection drops or connection speed drops.
