    I've just moved, and now have one of the new eir fibre 1A 1.0 routers. I'm used to pairing my TP link plugs by using the WPS button. This router doesn't have one, or even a wifi button. Does anyone know an easy way of pairing my tp link plugs to have the details of this router? Currently, they're broadcasting wifi with the credentials of the old router. I can live with that for now, but would prefer to have everything with the same details as I move around the house.

    You can either download the TP link config tool and update the SSID and password on the plugs to be that of the new router or else change the SSID etc in the router to match the old one

    Alternatively, you can usually initiate WPS from the router's web UI as well.

    Yep.

    WPS has its problems but if you're going to use it the whole point is its very simple to use. Removing the hardware button was really really goddamn stupid. #JustEirThings
