Model: TL-PA7027P KIT  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version:

Hi!

 

I had a well functioning network of the PA7017P x3, working at about 300 Mbps, no problem whatsoever. I thought to expand it with TL-PA7027Ps, which should be compatible. Exactly after I added the 7027P to the network, however, the network wasnt working properly. The connection became bad/slow or completely unavailable. I did a reset to factory conditions on all of them. Didn't help.

 

I found out, after a lot of debugging, that the 7017P at the router was malfunctioning. Once I swapped that one for a nother one, the problem is solved. I don't dare to connect the 7027Ps again. Is this a known problem? is there a fix? I could not find newer firmware online, for example.

 

thanks.
