WA860RE Users Having IP Conflict Issues
Model : TL-WA860RE
Hardware Version :
Firmware Version :
ISP :
Hi there,
I recently acquired the TL-WA860RE to extend my network to the 2nd floor. On most days the connection is not very stable and constantly drops, and my laptop often gives me the following error message:
Here is my setup configuration:
Am I doing anything wrong / is there a best practice & setup. Here are some questions to start off:
Is using the same SSID typically better / more advised, or different SSID?
[*]What about static / dynamic IP of the extender?
[*]Does the IP address of the extender NEED to fall within the assignable IP range of the main router?
[*]DHCP server of the extender is definitely off, yes?
[*]Who assigns the IP addresses for devices connected to the extender?
[*]Do I need a fireware upgrade?
Any ideas towards troubleshooting would be helpful, thanks!
