Connecting my Sky Router with a TP Link EAP 110 outdoor access point

I've installed a TP Link EAP 110 Access point externally, to cover reach a Ring security camera. How do I link this to my Sky router?

I have a TP Link EAP 110 access point which I want to use to extend network to an external Ring camera. How do I do this please?

Given the name suggests Enterprise Access Point, that may not be ideal hardware for a domestic setup.

 

A quick look at the TP-Link support site suggests as a minimum you need to install management software on a computer to administer the AP.

To me it appears the Omada range is intended to be a competitor for similar but longer established SME business-grade hardware from Ubiquiti.

You'll need to ethernet cable it to the Sky router, as wireless extending will not work Sky equipment is completely proprietary.
