TL-WA850RE problem with Android
2014-07-01 23:30:50
Region : Italy
Model : TL-WA850RE
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version :
ISP :
Hi,
I bought a TL-WA850RE to extend my wireless network from my main router TL-W8951ND. Both firmware was updated to the last version.
I installed and configured all without any problem, so actually I can connet to TL-WA850RE using many devices such as my Windows8 PC.
Anyway I can't work using my Samsung S4 with Android 4.4.2 . My phone connect correctly to the extender, but I have not connection to Internet and to my LAN ( for example I can't reach my main router IP ).
This happends only with this deviced with Android 4.4.2, I tested that with others devices using and old version of Android there is no problem.
This is not a problem of my phone, if I connect it to my main router and every other wireless network, it works correctly.
I seriusly think that this may be a bug or an incompatibility of the Firmware.
Someone can help me? Thanks.

Sorry, I hope not to seem arrogant, but I do not think the basic troubleshooting operation descrived in this article may be useful for me. I already checked the basic options and possibility that could be the problem. At this point I suppose the problem is more advanced.
I think that may be some problem in the firmware or an incompatibility between Android 4.4.2 and TL-WA850RE. I'm looking for some official comunications from TP-Link or for someone other with the same problem who can confirm me.

My DNS is already OK. But my problem is not the internet navigation. I cannot reach even my LAN.
Thanks.

My post it's clear, it reads Google it, and I linked the first example that Google pop, I don't have a Android.
I don't and never will have a 850 (buggy device, posted all around the forum)
I solve my repeating needs with TL & third party solutions (works flawless 24/7)
the article I linked, it's and example of what you can find, don't let one article stop you, and dont expect all answers to be spoon-fed, one thing you can try as a test downgrading 850 Wireless Settings/Channel Width/20Mhz, and see result
Be my guest, and good luck with your 850.

Into your Samsung, did you set the gateway and DNS of the wifi signal with the IP address of your TL-W8951ND?

Sorry, but this configuration is possible for static IP. I want to use only DHCP. My main router provide as DHCP source and it works correctly.
Thanks.

Using Static IP configuration and setting correctly GW and DNS the problem persist.
Update: I notice that my Samsung correctly get the IP and the DHCP configuration ( given by main router! ) but even cannot reach nothing ( only wa850re ).
