I can neither see support for 802.11r (fast roaming) nor support for repeater mode in the specification. Based on this the AP is probably not affected but probably only the vendor itself can give you the ultimate answer about it. See also the statement of TP-Link krack regarding a specific type of routers and use case which is part of the vulnerability statement you've linked to: Unaffected TP-Link products: ...Routers and gateways working in their default mode (Router Mode) and AP Mode
