Create an instant password-protected wireless
network with an NAT Firewall and share internet with
multiple devices. This mode is suitable for hotel
rooms and home networks.
(Note: if the hotel’s Internet has an authentication
process, you will need to authenticate only once and
only on one device)
Use as a wireless adapter for wired-only Ethernet
enabled devices. This mode is suitable for
connecting Smart TVs, game consoles, or computers
to your wireless network.
Repeat signal from an existing wireless network.
This mode is suitable to extend wireless coverage,
reaching devices that were previously too far from
your primary router to maintain a stable wireless
connection.
The repeated signal will display the same network
name and password as your existing wireless
network.
Create a wireless network from an Ethernet
connection. This mode is suitable for dorm rooms
or homes if there's already a wired router but you
need a wireless hotspot.
(Note: if the hotel’s Internet has an authentication
process, you will need to authenticate it on EACH
device.)
Use as a client router to receive internet access
from a Wireless Internet Service Provider (WISP),
and share that access with local devices.
Plug the TL-WR710N into a power outlet that is
near your modem or a wired ethernet connection.
Wait until the LED is blinking.
If you are connecting the TL-WR710N directly to
your cable modem, you must rst power reset the
modem and wait until its ONLINE LED is solid.
Then use an ethernet cable to connect to your
modem via the LAN/WAN port on the TL-WR710N.
If you are connecting the TL-WR710N to an existing
network, simply plug the ethernet cable into the
LAN/WAN port and to your network.
In either case, wait until the LED is solid blue.
Click the Wireless Network icon on your desktop
( or ). Select the Default SSID of the
TL-WR710N, then click Connect.

What can I do if I want to switch the Operating Mode or change
some settings?
Plug your TL-WR710N into a power outlet and use its LAN
port to connect your computer via Ethernet cable.
Disconnect from all wireless networks, and wait until the
LED is solid blue.
Open a web browser and go to the page http://tplinklogin.net.
Enter the login username:
admin and password: admin.
After a successful login, click Quick Setup from the menu to
congure your TL-WR710N. Click Next”.
Choose the Working Mode you need, then click Next and refer to
the sections below for further instruction.
Click “Survey button to nd the available wireless networks.
Then select the SSID of your target network and click
Connect”.
When choosing an ideal location to optimize the performance of
repeater mode, please keep the points below in mind.
Generally, the ideal location for your TL-WR710N is half-way
between your wireless router and your Wi-Fi enabled devices.
If that is not possible, placing the TL-WR710N closer to your
wireless router will ensure stable performance.
Try to choose a location that will minimize the number of
obstacles between the TL-WR710N and your wireless router.
Open corridors or other spacious locations will typically
provide better conditions for performance than a crowded
room.
Try to choose a location that minimizes interference from
devices operating on the same wireless frequency, such as
cordless phones bluetooth devices, and microwave ovens.
Reset the cable modem by powering it o, and then powering
it back on. Wait until its ONLINE LED is solid. Next, unplug the
TL-WR710N and plug it back in. This will allow you to access
Internet in most cases.
If the above does not work and you are unsure which mode
the TL-WR710N is in, please reset the TL-WR710N so that it
defaults back to Router Mode.
Low signal strength can be caused by obstruction from walls or
objects. If you are receiving low signal strength, try to place your
TL-WR710N in a higher location, keeping it away from
obstructed locations like under or behind a desk.
Generally speaking, putting your TL-WR710N in a location
central to your home will maximize your signal coverage.
In any time if you want to change the Operating Mode, please refer
to the "Operating Mode Conguration" Section to change the
mode. You may also change any settings via the Web management
page.
You need change your computers conguration settings to obtain

conguration.
Set “Congure IPv4” to “Using DHCP”, then click “Apply”.
What can I do if my wireless keeps dropping?
By default, your wireless channel setting is set to “auto This
setting causes the TL-WR710N to select the least congested
channel between 1 and 11, allowing you to achieve the best
performance.
You may be experiencing frequent wireless drops due to an often
changing channel setting. In this case, setting your wireless
channel setting to a static channel between 1 and 11 will prevent
the wireless frequency from changing, and likely stabilize your
network connection.
