Hello

 

I'm facing exactly the problem described in this thread : 

https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/607636

except that I could log in just once, and then any time I try to log again, I get the infamous "Message too long for RSA" pop-up.

I do not get a chance to fill-in a password, it just seems to be blocked. That's how far my problem is different from the thread mentioned.

 

I tried to reset it, I can see the LEDs getting off and on after a while, but still no chance to connect.

 

I'm using this device to connect to an other one, an audio mixer with poor wifi capability (during concerts it cannot handle so many wifi coming form the crowd) so I really need to go through the router.

Other then that it does seem to work well, I can connect to it's 5G wifi, and use it as a bridge to my internet box.

 

I also used fing software to get a good view of all the network. It does see my audio mixer, provides few informations about it, so it seems to be there. But the mixer's software cannot connect to the HW.

 

Thanks

 

Grégoire

Hi,

 

Are you also using the web browser to store and automatically fill in user credentials?

 

By the way, after a reset the login page of the router should look different. Instead of showing one password field you should see two fields to create a new login password.
