Hardware Version: V4
Firmware Version:

Is there anything that I need to do to setup these adaptor to allow tagged vlan traffic. Yes there are post that says this should work, its a layer 2 device so should work but there is another post from last year having the same issue as me.

 

Basically, when I have the pc connected to a single vlan it works. I have setup a new switch on the output of the adaptor that has 3 vlans and vlan 1 untagged works, other tagged vlans don't. I have checked that is not the new switch setup by connecting with a long patch lead and all vlans then work as expected, reconnect to the adaptor and the connection for the tagged vlans fails again.

 

I have used the utility to reset, reload the latest firmware and repaired, I can't see any other obvious options other than turning power saving off. I'm I missing something or do these "really" support vlans...

 Hi @Paped,

Thank you for your support of TL-PA7017P.

However, if you want to use VLAN function through TL-PA7017P, unfortunately, this device does not have VLAN function. Its main function is to transmit network, which can also be simplified as Ethernet cable.

May I know where did you see that TL-PA7017P has VLAN function? Can you provide a relevant link?

  @Joseph-TP the post is on this site and is https://community.tp-link.com/us/home/forum/topic/213812?replyId=468042

 

In addition as you say it basically a replication of an ethernet connection at layer 2, vlans are layer 2 also so it should work? Otherwise its not actually replicating ethernet functionality over the power line as it should.

 

Thanks

 

Paul
