repair the regular red light drop-off drop off !
Hello,
My network has a pair of PA7010 and a pair of pa9020.
Regularly, 3-4 times a week, a random number of adapters fail to communicate and display a red light. When they work, the connection is stable and close to the theoretical limit.
The only reliable method to repair the connection is to run around the house and reset all "red" adapters to factory settings within a minute. I would love to use encryption, but do not bother as it makes the whole reset exercise even healthier, but longer.
I have thoroughly studied the forum and tried all suggestions (off power saving, changed firmware, encryption, sequence of pairing, etc),
and pretty sure that adapters lose connection due to a mains interference or surge and then FAIL TO RESTORE THE CONNECTION.
The connection restoration functionality is expected from the product, and it is technically possible (as the factory reset does restore it).
The years of inability to fix the problem make me think that TP-link is either ignoring the customer feedback, technically incompetent, or unable to adopt an appropriate technology for some other reason.
I would love to hear if anything is being done about the problem and if the customers have any hope of receiving either a firmware upgrade or a recommendation to buy a new model that does not give up after a random mobile call or light switching.
Your faithful customer until the dishwasher starts,
Mikkk
