wifi not showing after setting up as ap
Hey all nice to meet you, I'm new to the forum.
Recently i have been struggling with the following: I have been setting up a network consisting of multiple tp link routers installed as access points.
At least 2 are the AX75 model (v2). Ive updated the firmware to the current available version for my region (the Netherlands).
The router from which the network originates is of a different brand and the standard router provided by our internet provider, an experia box.
We have a plethora of different users and the wired connection works normally all across the building.
to prevent dhcp issues I've been pushing the different users to transfer to Access Points and a few bought brand new shiny tp-link routers.
archer ax73 (v2) with up to date firmware - Archer AX73(US)_V2_1.1.0 Build 20240323
When installing these tp link routers as acess points the following happens:
Connecting the routers with a wire shows them working as the ap they are intended to be after installation and the default gateway is that of our providers router.
The wi-fi they share is of the router itself (TP-link code/whatever) <-> (even after resetting multiple times).
Not of the router which they should be an ap for. (this counts for both archer AX73 routers).
This wi-fi connection is connectable but not providing internet nor giving access to the router itself.
So I'm at a loss and really would like the wireless connections to work. Im hoping for any of you to have any insight.
thanks in advance,
Kim
