userName, not
name n the POST form.

The form's field for the username must be
userName, not
name. Note the uppercase 'N'.
The info in the FAQ is wrong.

Try it with content-type
application/x-www-form-urlencoded instead of
raw. It works for me using
curl with this content type.

Thanks R1D2, now I got success to log in.
But I have another problem, in the next step 8 of http://www.tp-link.com/us/faq-928.html, I tried make a "fake" request, only to get a JSON and test before build my app. So, all my requests generated a HTTP Error 400:

I'm not sure, but probably now you have to use
raw mode. The difference is that with the login request you simulate filling in a form and submitting it, while the request for authentication might be processed differently. Try
raw mode and set
Content-type and
Content-length header appropriately. Just a guess.
Unfortunately TP-Link's documentation for Business Class devices is lacking details needed for proper integration in customized systems. While I understand the (intentional) lack of technical details in the documentation for SOHO equipment to keep the average user happy, I think for SMB equipment TP-Link should make a little more in-depth documentation available, at least to system integrators such as you and me.

Nice R1D2 , you were right! It worked! I changed to raw and text/plain and i got the json. You are correct, this docs are not enought to build an app, we need more information and examples. But now i can continue and do more tests.
Thank you very much! :D
