Dear danymarc,

I did what you suggested, but I still have the same problem.

Here is what I did: Under Operation Mode I selected WISP Client Router. Then, under Network I put the correct settings for LAN and WAN and finally under Wireless Mode I selected Client mode (with the correct SSID) and also under security settings I used WEP encryption.

Under the above scenario (with the WEP encryption) I had a perfect connection. Then, (to replicate the problem) I changed the encryption mode in the Thomson gateway device to WPA and also changed it to the TL-2 sWA5210G. Under this scenario, I have no connection.

I also tested the above 2 scenarios with a different wireless device as a source (instead of the Thomson device) and I had no problems at all, with either settings (WEP and WPA).

So, the conclusion is the same again: THERE IS INCOMPATIBILITY between TL-WA5210G and the Thomson devices.

Please, tech support guys I really need this to work, because in my country (Cyprus) the Thomson device is the most widely used gateway device!!!

Regards.

Can some administrator please remove the post by chectione (and possibly ban him)? Clearly his post is spam!

on the other hand, u posted on #1 I am an experienced technician and I have installed the product in client mode in order to create a wireless bridge between a wireless router and TL-WA5210G numerous times with various wireless router models.
and on posted #4 Here is what I did: Under Operation Mode I selected WISP Client Router.
The scenario i posted u from the Terryble guy, is using under Operation mode AP selected, and Wireless Mode as Client or any need u have, (Bridge exclusive WEP security)
and u found it urself this toy has issues with some security,
I will post u this example of solution i found with a 730RE Ver 2, no go repeating wireless with WEP security, only wired ethernet, the modem did not let me change to WAP, to solve it, i changed the modem to a newer one that uses WPA or WPA2 security, problem solved.
This toys are not flawless.

OK, Thanks!
