TL-WA7210N often unable to connect to AP without rebooting.
Region : UnitedKingdom
Model : TL-WA7210N
Hardware Version : V2
Firmware Version : 3.16.5 Build 130320 Rel.34410n
ISP :
Hi,
I have the TL-W7210N connected to a Technicolor TG582n as a wireless access point to provide free WiFi internet access for customers on our holiday caravan site. The router and the access point are the only devices attached to the phone line and I have turned the router's WiFi signal off.
If I reboot the TL-W7210N I can connect my laptop to it for a while but eventually get the, "Windows was unable to connect to 'SSID_name'", message. I've tried the troubleshooter but it doesn't help. Re-booting the TL-W7210N is the only thing that seems to work. If I connect to the router with an ethernet cable and open the TL-W7210N control page I can see that other people are connected and there is throughput, so it looks like it's just my problem (though obviously a customer may have the same problem in future so I'd like to fix it).
I connect to a different wireless network on a different phone line most of the time so I wondered if some setting is changed on my laptop when I switch networks, but restarting my laptop doesn't allow me to connect.
Any ideas?
Thanks for any help you can offer,
Jos
