The router can work as an access point, transforming your existing wired network to a
wireless one.
1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for
the router.
2. Go to Advanced > System > Operation Mode, select Access Point and click Save. The
router will reboot and switch to Access Point mode.
3. After rebooting, connect the router to your existing wired router via an Ethernet cable.
4. Log in again to the web management page http://tplinkwifi.net, and go to Advanced
> Quick Setup.
5. Configure your wireless settings and click Next.
6. Confirm the information and click Save. Now, you can enjoy Wi-Fi.
Tips:
• Functions, such as Parental Controls, QoS and NAT Forwarding, are not supported in the Access Point mode.
• Functions, such as Guest Network, are the same as those in the Router mode.
