WiFi Extenders developed with the latest technique to meet the requirements of the users. They mainly work to extend the range of the current network and they have critical improvements over the WiFi repeaters. They use the "Backhaul" technique that helps to extend the signal without using any wireless bandwidth. They also use this technique by connecting the router end of the extender to the extender module over a wire. However, after knowing the TP-Link extender setup, it is quite easy to use the WiFi with extended range and there is no need to use any wire for it.

Here are the steps to follow for setting up TP-Link Extender Setup:

Scroll down now and you can find your IP address listed next to "IPv4".
