Hi, please make sure the TL-WPA8630 is using 192.168.128.2 IP address with gateway 192.168.128.1, then configure the PC with static IP 192.168.128.x with gateway 192.168.128.1, if still no internet connection and not possible to access the tp-link web interface, we would like to forward your case to senior engineer for debugging.

 

By the way, except for the PC, if you connect a smartphone to the TL-WPA8630 wirelessly, what is the IP address and default gateway on the phone?

So I retried and reset the extender a couple of times and now I can acces the web interface again using the static ip. However it still does not allow me to ping the other computer nor does it give me access to the wider internet. Even though the default gateways of both computers are the same.
If I do not configure static iip such as on my phone the internet works without issue.

Without configuring static ip my phone gives the following (check attachment).

I am living in an appartment, do you think maybe the tp link is connecting to another persons network? It would suprise me as the networks should be closed loop. I must be doing something wrong.
