Want to change your WiFi extender’s password or update its settings, but have no clue how to log into it? Don’t worry, you just need its IP address. Here are three super easy ways to find it in less than a minute. In this video, we use TP Link AC750 Range Extender or RE540 as example.
Method 1: The Connected Devices List.
Login your main router. See, your extender gets its IP directly from your main router. Just open your router’s app or log into its web dashboard, look for the Connected Devices or Device List, and find your extender’s name. The IP address will be listed right next to it!
Method 2: The Desktop Command (For PC/Mac)
Method two is for the computer users. If you’re on Windows, open Command Prompt and type arp -a, then hit enter. On a Mac, open Terminal and type the same thing. This pulls up a list of all IP addresses on your network. Look for the physical MAC address that matches the sticker on the back of your extender.
Once you have that IP, just type it straight into your web browser’s URL bar, hit enter, and boom—you’re in the settings! If this helped you out, drop a like, hit follow, and I’ll see you in the next one!
Your car will usually tell you exactly what went wrong (e.g., “Charge cable fault,” “Ground fault,” “High temperature,” etc.).

How to turn iPhone Background App Refresh on or off
iPhone Background App Refresh is a system feature that allows apps to update their content in the background even when you’re not actively using them. This keeps apps ready with fresh data the moment you open them.
📌 What Background App Refresh actually does
When enabled, apps can:
Fetch new data from the internet
Update content while the app is suspended
Sync information across devices
Refresh feeds so they’re ready when you reopen the app
This happens automatically, based on when iOS decides it’s efficient to run them.
Example: If you leave Twitter/X and come back later, the same tweet you were reading may still be there instead of refreshing to the top.
📌 Why you might turn it OFF
Disabling Background App Refresh can:
Improve battery life
Reduce cellular data usage
Limit unnecessary network activity
Apps won’t update until you open them, so you may see delays in new emails, social media updates, or messages.
📌 How to turn it on or off
Settings → General → Background App Refresh Choose:
How to Block Marketing Emails in Outlook (Using Alibaba as an Example)
Getting too many Alibaba emails? And every time you click Report Junk, Outlook opens that annoying Alibaba ‘Email Preferences’ page instead of blocking them? Let me show you the real way to stop them — permanently.
Step 1 — Don’t use ‘Report Junk’
Alibaba uses a special unsubscribe link. Outlook thinks you want to manage preferences, so it sends you to this page. This does not block anything.
Step 2 — Open Outlook Settings
Instead, we block them directly inside Outlook
Step 3 — Create a Block Rule
Click Mail, then Rules, then Add new rule. Name it: Block Alibaba
Condition:
From → contains → alibaba.com
Action:
Delete or
Delete permanently
Save it. Now every Alibaba email gets deleted before it even hits your inbox.
Step 4 — (Optional) Block the Domain
[Screen recording: Mail → Junk email → Blocked senders] “Want extra protection? Go to Junk email, then Blocked senders and domains. Add:
