TL-WPA4220 won't pair and only the Ethernet LED lights up when plugged in.
Region : Ireland
Model : TL-WPA4220
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version : not sure
ISP : UPC
I have had this unit (purchased as part of a kit) for about 9 months but wifi never successfully runs on it. It will run once I reset the power but then as soon as another device (iphone) connects to it, it drops. It's not entirely satisfactory but I mainly use the unit to extend the home network to a server on the third floor so it's not a show stopper.
Every two weeks or so, the unit simply stops working and I recycle the power and it seems to sort itself out. However, the last time i did this, it simply won't reset. The only LED that is lit is the ethernet LED. This lights up once plugged in irrespective of whether or not there is a cable plugged into the device. I have tried pairing it with the other unit plugged into the main modem/router, but to no avail.
I press the pair button as per the instructions and it fails to do anything (no lights flash - only the ethernet LED remains solidly lit) . I have tried to reset the device and again, it fails to do anything. I have tried to plug in a cable and connect to it via laptop and again, it simply is not recognised.
Is there anything I'm missing or is the device broken?
Many thanks in advance
