TL-WPA4220 V4 Problem with the connection since one week ago
2023-07-21 01:59:51
Model: TL-WPA4220 KIT  
Hardware Version: V4
Firmware Version: 220408

I have a TL-WPA4220 for about a year, and during that time, I had no issues with both Wi-Fi and Ethernet connections working properly. However, approximately a week ago, I started experiencing problems with the device's connection. I tried connecting both adapters in the same room, and they worked fine. But when I move the extender to my bedroom, it loses the signal. Sometimes, it provides a very slow internet speed, and after a few minutes, it loses the signal again, I have tried connecting the extender in other rooms of the house, but it still doesn't have a signal. However, the LED lights indicate that it is linked correctly. I have also tried updating the firmware and restoring the factory settings.

Hi,do you mean powerline LEDs are both light up but no internet access when you are connected to the powerline extender WiFi?

Please check if the powerline adapter is still connected to your router properly, try a different Ethernet cable if possible.

 

Besides, is there any change or modifications to your network or any change of the electrical environment recently?

  @Sunshine Hi, I've tried what you mentioned about the powerline adapter and changing the Ethernet cables, but nothing has worked.

There have been no changes in the network or the electrical environment either.

After relocating the powerline extender, please use tpPLC utility to see if the two powerline devices are still paired and what the powerline rate is between the two devices.

 

If it is too low, please follow this guide to improve it to see if internet will work:

What can I do if my powerline rate is very low?
