Problems extending Wi-Fi using a TP Link CPE 510
Model :
Hardware Version : Not Clear
Firmware Version :
ISP :
My first post on these forums comes after 45 minutes on the phone to TP Link customer services who then proceeded to email me a copy of the instructions. I am hoping this will be more fruitful!
I am trying to extend the wi-fi signal from one property to another (in Spain) using the TP Link CPE 510.
Property 1 - The house with the internet (Movistar) has a Movistar Home Station ADSL BHS-RTA router.
Property 2 - The house receiving the signal has a TP Link TL_WR740N router.
As previously mentioned I am trying to connect them using the TP-Link CPE510
The problem is when the extender is plugged in the router at property one, the internet signal becomes patchy and then stops working altogether at the property but is extended fine to the second property where it works. The devices that were connected at property 1 then connect to a different wi-fi connections when the extender is plugged in. The network that works fine is known as movistar_1902 where everything works fine, however they now want to connect to a movistar_1902_3 local network with no internet. Its as if the extender is creating a second local network instead of extending the existing network. Any devices that I brought down from property 2, i.e. laptop, ipad,mobile all worked fine at both properties it was only the devices that were already on the network.
Anybody have any ideas on why this is? Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have no idea myself
Thanks in advance, Sam
