Solution Internet works fine via LTE Gateway Router but Tether App shows it offline when managed remotely
This Article Applies to:
TP-Link LTE Gateway Routers that support cloud management via Tether App
Issue Description/Phenomenon:
1. The LTE Gateway Router is connected to the internet and bound to your TP-Link ID for cloud management
2. All client devices connected to the LTE Gateway Router are able to access internet without any problem
3. You are able to manage the LTE Gateway Router locally via Tether App when connected to the LTE Gateway Router
4. When you are in a different network, Tether App shows the LTE Gateway Router offline, thus you are unable to manage the device remotely.
5. If you reboot the LTE Gateway Router, it would be online for several minutes on Tether App, but the same issue will appear again later even though internet still works fine
