Hi folks,
i did try to set up my cpe510 in February, but gave up...
Ok, now i came back to it :)
I changed my ip and i can use GUI (192.168.0.254)
Pharos Control working well and device is managed (green light)
Than i went to GUI (changed password etc)
Quick set up, Access Point, IP..254, SSID TP-LINK_Outdoor_B04318 (came up automatically), next, finish
Than, again log in
quick set up
Repeater (I need to cover my huge garden), ip..254, SSID of remote AP (blank) Clicking Survey, it starts scanning but no networks in the list! ( i have got netgear wi-fi, BT, BT Hotspot, but nothing coming up in the list)
I am sure, 1st time when i tried to set it up i definitely had networks there.
What I am doing wrong?

Repeater is a bad news, you have a 5Ghz device, only 5Ghz devices will connect to 510 like
iPhone 5,6 or 7 or any iPad, and Androids capable on the band
set it as AP pointing to your huge garden, and cable from 510 to your ISP (internet service provider) router

Go to Wireless Tab first line is region, some 510s lets you change Region on the fly, others don't
If yes, change it to United States
If not, you have to Factory Defrault your 510 and start over
In Region select either Test Mode or United States, both will let you select ch. 149

Hi, Thanks. Thats better !
US region did the job!
Set up Access Point with 149,(in the network list i saw all of my networks)
connect to the wireless network (i think it copied the name of selected network)
than set up repeater
All was fine before i followed this : http://www.tp-link.com/en/faq-730.html
Ip Auto, relocated...Plugged to the router...
than i tried to connect to the device through Pharos.
No network connection!
Chrome 192.168.0.254
No network connection!
Ethernet just stared dying. stopped opening any pages
Unplugged CPE from router
All good back on again
Still no connection to the device.
Plugged back in to the computer, Changed ip, and all working fine

Did i missed something?

Pharos Control showing managed devise (I started manage it)

Any suggestions?

Im confuse, all was fine as Repeater, correct?
And then you set up AP mode following the link
and you post Ip Auto, relocated...Plugged to the router...
sorry I dont understand
510 has to be pluged to main router, and following quick set up
first step its IP address, you have to input one from same subnet as your router
i.e. if your main router uses 192.168.1.1 you input in Pharos 192.168.1.10
in Gateway input in this example ip from main router 192.168.1.1
in SSID any name you like, channel 149, security whatever, distance auto, and thats it
do not enable MaxTream or you wont be abe to connect
thats it, the 510 has to be connected to your main router all the time via cable
