TP-LINK has just released Tether 2.0, the latest version of our mobile app for our dual band routers. Tether 2.0 contains new features and a redesigned, intuitive user interface. It has the ability to quickly verify the status of the Network Map of all connected devices to your router and allows users to manage settings such as, but not limited to, Internet, main WiFi, Guest WiFi, parental control and privileges, all from the convenience of their smart phones.

Value-add features include:
· Enhanced security connection from tether to the Router
· Redesign of the UI makes it easier to use
· Manage permissions and set administrators
· Access Parental control features

At present, the following TP-Link routers are compatible with the newly released mobile app, Tether 2.0:
Archer C7 v1: http://www.tp-link.com/en/support/download/?model=Archer+C7&version=V1#tbl_j
Archer C7 v2: http://www.tp-link.com/en/support/download/?model=Archer+C7&version=V2#tbl_j
Archer C5 v1.20: http://www.tp-link.com/en/support/download/?model=Archer+C5&version=V1.20#tbl_j
TL-WDR4300: http://www.tp-link.com/en/support/download/?model=TL-WDR4300&version=V1#tbl_b
TL-WDR3600: http://www.tp-link.com/en/support/download/?model=TL-WDR3600&version=V1#tbl_b
TL-WDR3500: http://www.tp-link.com/en/support/download/?model=TL-WDR3500&version=V1#tbl_b

To use mobile app, Tether 2.0, or upgrade your mobile app from Tether 1.0, please complete the following:
Download or upgrade Tether 2.0 mobile app from the app store
1. Upgrade compatible router firmware to the latest version as shown in the above table


Android user:
Note: At present Tether 2.0 is not compatible for use on Android smart phones. Android users can upgrade their firmware for the routers shown in the table above. Firmware upgrade can enhance product reliability, but in doing so Tether 1.0 will no longer be compatible and user will have to wait for the future release of Tether 2.0 for Android.

I hope the next iOS Tether update includes the "Media Sharing" feature. Version 1.0 had this option but version 2.0 does not :(

Sure, :). The latest firmware with tether support of C9/C8/C7/C5/C2/WDR4300/WDR3600/WDR3500 are now available on www.tp-link.com/en
This is their global website, we can always find the latest release on www.tp-link.com/en in the first place. :cool:

If anyone got a WDR4900, which is unfortunately not supported by Tether 2.0, he/she can download the Tether V1 from the sticky thread by Tobacco in this forum.

It seems difficult to implement that feature in Tether in the future. I think it is because implement of a complete media sharing/playing function requires to add too much components so that now they decided to cut out this function.

Anyway, I use ES File Explorer File Manager, it works like a charm

Static IP address for the gateway...
2015-02-02 05:37:21
Is there a way to change what gateway address that Tether tries to connect to? I don't use the default settings on the router for the LAN and apparently Tether will only connect to 192.168.01... I've tried reading whatever I could find on the topic but there doesn't seem to by anything. Thanks for any help.

Which model are you using? I changed my C7 to 192.168.2.254 and a different usr/passwd, Tether V2 still works. No problem founded.

Ensure your phone and router have IP addresses within the same subnet. And the phone must connect to the main SSID, not the Guest Network.
