Can't find how to enable the n WiFi mode in TLWN881ND
Hey, I've just downloaded and installed the latest drivers for Windows 10 from https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/download/tl-wn881nd/#Driver, and I have no idea how to enable the n WiFi mode?
My download speed over WiFi never exceeds 50 Mb/s while via LAN I always have ~95-100 Mb/s (and that's correctly my expected max speed from the ISP)
Thank you in advance :)

The TL-WN881ND supports 802.11n, while the reason why you cannot find it is that the network adapter works in 802.11n mode by default.
For the speed issue, you can refer to the instruction to do some troubleshooting first:

@Kevin_Z This doesn't seem to be right, there is no default mode only "Auto" and why would we not be able to select `N` mode? This plus I just tested with the windows drivers and your drivers and it caps out at the bandwidth limit of 54mb/s. Please look into this and your drivers on windows 10

Hello ,
I encountered the same problems. Here are my system information with the wireless mode scrolldown list.
and here are the driver infos :
My wi-fi supports the n and g protocol on 2.4 GHz frequency and i have no problem getting on it with my laptop (with an Intel(R) Wireless-Ac 9560 160 MHz wifi card) .
Also, when i look at the event log, after installing TL-WN881ND V2 windows 10 RTL driver 2024.0.4.208, it is written "Device not started (RTElanE02)". I don't know if it could be the problem.
Thanks in advance!
