Is the TP-Link TL-WA890EA affected?
I wrote to customer service about it, but haven't heard back.

If we buy a TPLINK Router, like C7 and C1200, and we can't use bridge mode, so why I need to buy it?

Do you need to use your router in bridge mode?

Almost 2 weeks have passed since the KRACK Attack was disclosed. There is still no Update for the Top-of-the-Line Product "Deco M5 Whole Wifi System" as of now!
I have two of those Systems worth 800$ in place and I have to confess that I am really PI***ED OFF that TP-Link has not addressed this issue yet.

BTW: Hosting this Forum via HTTP is also a joke! Do you care about security at all? Why the heck do I need to enter a password at all if it is transmitted in plaintext anyway? Very disappointed

Camera NC230 not listed as affected

What about NC230 camera? From what I gather it has just come out last year and received a firmware update 5 months ago and is still sold in local stores around.

I registered on here just to say, I've always recommended TP-link products to people when looking for a good router, however I can't in good conscious do that anymore. I will most likely be replacing the firmware with DD-WRT, since they've patched the security flaw. If that doesn't work, I'll be tossing my TP-link routers at home and at work in the garbage and going with a company that takes security more seriously. I did find what careyer said to be really funny, I didn't even notice that TP-Link doesn't use SSL on their website at all. You can get it on bargain websites for like $2. How sad.

yes, because my house is big and that C7 cover area is small.

Just adding that I'm waiting for the RE210 and will probably unplug it soon and make a more formal complaint if a firmware update isn't issued. Repeaters are especially vulnerable to the KRACK.

It would be great if tp-link allowed customers to register for email updates each time a new firmware is available for their devices.

What is even more concerning since the routers (according to TP-Link) are not affected as used in a standard fashion, all their IFTT devices are affected and they have not released firmware for those. SHAMEFUL!
