Model: EAP115-Wall  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Good morning everyone.

 

I have recently purchased a TP Link EAP115 wall plate which is to be used in our garden office.

 

As I understand it this needs power from a POE Switch, which I think I have.

 

I cannot get power to the wall plate. This is my set up...

 

Plusnet hub 2 router connected to a TP Link switch (TLSG105S) from the WAN port on the router, the port I have connected to on the switch has a solid green light so I'm assuming that bit is correct.

 

Then I have connected from another port on the switch to the back of the wall plate but I have no green light or power on the wall plate.

 

Am I doing something obviously wrong? It is Sunday morning after all.

 

Thank you in advance everyone

It looks like you have a fairly small and simple network, the ES205GP should work well for you.

Have I purchased the wrong switch?

The TLSG105S is not a POE switch so you will not be able to use it to provide power to the access point.

Damn it. I've just looked at my Amazon account and I've chosen the non POE version 😫
