CPE210 AP Router Questions
The arrangement below works. Questions:
- I currently administer the unit wireless. Is there any way to administer wired ?
Could I administer thru Pharos Control ? Pharos Control does see the Unit, but can not connect
- I am unable to update the CPE210 firmware. After upload, it says "file can not be read"
- does the CPE210 allow for Scheduled WiFi Access Control ( by time of day ) ? I don't see it
Thanks

@gdurniak Have you tried connecting them directly to a computer and updating their firmware trough web interface? It is a known bug wich you cannot upgrade the firmware trough Pharos control that was fixed in latest firmware you can find it here https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/download/cpe210/v2/#Firmware
And no, cpe series does not support Scheduled WiFi Access Control.

@cristianvdr Yes, I did try a wired connection.
Please note that the instructions warn that once in AP Router Mode, LAN becomes WAN, so no longer available for Management
I suspect I may have to go back to AP Mode, to update the Firmware

@cristianvdr [ EDITED ]
1. Your "Save" Changes Button is ingenious
I set the Unit back to "Access Point", clicked "Apply" ( but not "Save" ), then upgraded the Firmware with a wired connection
Much to my surprise, upon REBOOT, the Unit came back as "AP Router"
2. As "AP Router", I can administer the Unit Wireless, but not wired
I have the Pharos Control Server Software installed, and it does "Discover" the Unit, but can not connect.
Is a connection to this Model possible, in AP Router Mode ?
On the "Management" Tab, "SSH Login" and "Remote Management" are enabled, on Server Port 22 ( see screen shot below )
Thanks

@cristianvdr ( Cont'd )
In "AP Router" Mode, there are "Access Control" settings, that allow for Host, Target, Day of Week, and Hours. However, I was unable to make any sense of it
Instead, I set the Firewall Access Control on the Verizon FIOS Router, to enable / deny internet access to the CPE210 on a fixed Schedule
