trying to use wireless powerline to create a 2nd wireless network
Region : UnitedKingdom
Model : TL-WPA281
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version :
ISP : Sky
Hi
I have sky wifi router and currently run a few powerline plugs at various places in the house, one currently has a wireless access point off it that gives me a second wifi network.
I want to replace this and the power line plug it is connected to with this new TP-Link and replace this 2nd wifi network, saving myself 2 plug sockets in the process.
However its been a while since I configured this and for the life of me I cannot work out how to set a static ip on this TP-Link, it just doesn't take it, I must confess to following a pretty idiot-proof online guide that I can't find anymore and I think it requires me to temporarily set a static ip on my windows laptop but this is where I get lost as I'm not great at network config or windows.
Anyone got an idiot guides?
thanks
sarah
