Unified OneMesh Network

1. Set Up a OneMesh Network

TP-Link OneMesh extender will automatically join the router’s OneMesh network once connected. Check on the router‘s web management page to see if the OneMesh network is well-configured.

•If the extender is connected to this router:

1.Visit http://tplinkmodem.net, and log in with your TP-Link ID or the password you set for the router.

2.Go to Basic > OneMesh or Advanced > OneMesh.

3.When an extender joins the OneMesh network, it will be listed in the Devices in OneMesh Network list. Otherwise, you need to find it in the Available OneMesh Devices list and click Add to add it to the OneMesh network.

Now your router and extenders successfully form one OneMesh network!
