Tether App - add WPA 7517 Powerline adapter to the app
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Please consider adding the TL-WPA7510 KIT to the Tether app.
It would be useful in my scenario where I have an Archer A7, RE550, RE300 & TL-WPA7510 KIT on the same network so i could see them all in one place.

@Kevin_Z thank you. Any idea about the password issue? Can log on to the wpa 7517 via web browser ok, but via tether always shows wrong password, even when the password was actually set using the tether app!
@Degsy As far as I can confirm, the Powerline adapters or extenders are not compatible with the Tether app, so you cannot manage the powerline device via the Tether app, and that's why you cannot login to manage it.
However, this is still abnormal that you can find and see the powerline adapter on the Tether app, it seems the Tether app receives the TDP packages and responds to them. I cannot assure you now if this can be easily addressed or fixed by the powerline firmware update or Tether app update, I will suggest you manage the powerline adapter via tpPLC utility instead.

@Kevin_Z just noticed tonight that the powerline WPA7517 has started showing up in the tether app, but it will not connect

Can I have the Tether app version and firmware version of the WPA7517? We will need to confirm.

Except for the displayed Archer A7, RE550, RE300, are there any other extender or powerline adapter/extender in this network? Could it be possible that someone connected his extender to the A7's wireless network? The icon on the Tether app for TL-WPA7517 looks like the icon for a range extender.
This case will be escalated to the tech support engineers for further investigation, please check the email follow-up, thanks.

@Kevin_Z Yes, but they only said they would pass it on to the relevant dept, and that was quite a while ago.
