Broadband not connecting after TP Link booster

Bought a TP Link booster and now not able to connect our iPhones to the original Sky WiFi - it's not coming up as an option.. Have all four green lights and have restarted but still unable to connect, orange light for the two arrows on main sky WiFi hub

 

Weirdly can connect to the TP Link booster though - might it overridden the original WiFi? Help please!

@Benowen94 What hub from sky do you have, 2 arrows WPS should be out NO LIGHT unless used! 

Also say which Tp_Link booster you bought the model number of it example a RE700

I have the SR204 and the WPS arrows are now not light up anymore. 


TP Link is AV1300 which I replaced from the same model (owned same booster for 4 years across two properties) 

 

Any idea why it's taken over and removed the main WiFi? Even when I take out the TP Link hub and booster I still can't find the original WiFi!

@Benowen94 Powerline version? Tp-Link TL-PA8010P KIT etc rather than you generic, does not matter. Just switch off the powerline, unplug the Ethernet cable from it that goes to the hub, switch off the hub for 5 minutes then hub back on, see if the sky ssid's re-appear.

@Benowen94 If you do the AV1300 does not cut it in the tp-link world, there are 4 models in the range, just so you are aware!
