Model: RE305

Hardware Version: V3

Firmware Version: Firmware 1.1.2 Build 20200212 Rel. 67183(6583)

5 Oct 2020 - Just bought the TP Link RE305 (Amazon)

I have read the ubiquitous complaints of the same model, that one of the lights is off.

I have the same scenario, as depicted in the attached photo, the 2.4ghz seems not working from the main router and the 2.4ghz light is off.

In order for me to double check the network to avoid flaws, I changed all network name to ensure I am connected to the specific network signal that seems no signal.

in my case, the DvistaExt is connected to my 2.4ghz that seems on assessment, seems not receiving signal as the repeater 2.4ghz light is OFF.

I connect to DvistaExt, a different SSID of main 2.4ghz router, and run internet check, working fine, with little difference from the direct connection.

Any explaination of this weird system?

Im also shock at first thinking that it was not working. But it is working despite showing no network signal. #WEIRD

The 5ghz light is on, and also working fine. Good thing I have no problem at all despite the PRANK no signal hahaha

Good day.

Thank you very much for your time and patience.

For the RE305, it is dual band range extender.

So there would be 2 connections from the main router, one is for 2.4ghz and the other is 5ghz;

Even though the 2.4ghz failed to build the connection, it could still use the 5ghz to transfer data from the home router, but it would affect the speed;

If possible, please try to go to settings>wireless >host network>re-scan for the 2.4ghz and input the password again;

(please make sure the password is correct.)

Thank you very much.
