Model: TL-WPA4220 KIT  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hi

 

Just got a TL-WPA4220 today and setup went ok using my Galaxy S10. All the devices including my Chromebook(main purpose of the powerline as blackhole in my bedroom) can connect.

I only get 2.4ghz settings using the TP LinkApp on my S10 and don't see settings for my 5ghz wifi. I installed the app on my Chromebook and the app doesn't even locate the extender, although my chromebooks own Wifi can see it in a list of nearby wifi signals

..However i want to use my 5ghz Wifi for my extender for my Chromebook and not the 2.4ghz.

 

Any idea why?

 

Thanks

Hello, the TL-WPA4220kit is a single band device, which supports 2.4GHz only. That is why you cannot detect the 5GHz. 

 

Besides, the TL-WPA7510KIT, TL-WPA8630KIT supports both 2.4GHz and 5GHz. 

 

Best regards.
