Model: EAP110-Outdoor  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hi,

I've had an EAP110 outdoor for around 6 months which works great.

Because of this, my dad just bought one for his farm.

 

However, setting his up has been a complete failure.

 

We plug the EAP110 into the BT Smarthub via ethernet, the light goes green and 10 seconds later the "TPLink_2.4GHz_XXXXX" wifi network appears from the EAP. 

 

Connect to that, set the SSID and password. All good. 

 

Connect a couple of devices to the network, and then the wifi signal just vanishes.

 

This has happened 5/6 times since we tried to install it yesterday.

 

The green light is on the EAP. We've tried with and without the POE adapter with the same result.

 

We can reset it, and the same process happens again.

 

Why is the wifi signal stopping and how can we fix it?

 

TPLink support have been unable to help.

 

Thanks

@cgfw201 

 

Update on this one.

 

Still not working. However, having brought the EAP inside, it works absolutely fine on 2 different ethernet cables inside the house, including the long one it is attached to on the other side of the wall.

 

However, when taken outside again through the wall, the unit stops working.

 

What could be causing this? Is there something in the wall?
