UPnP/SSDP problem over wireless
Region : UnitedKingdom
Model : TL-WPA281
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version : 1.0.2 Build 130530 Rel.40324n
ISP :
Hi,
I have a problem using an iPhone based UPnP media player when connected to the network via the wireless on a WPA281. The network path is: iPhone -> TL-WPA281 wireless -> TL-PA211 -> switch -> Media server. Using an alternative wireless access point, but still going over the powerline network (iPhone -> BT Hub wireless -> TL-PA211 -> TL-PA211 -> switch -> Media server it does work. Using a packet sniffer on another computer connected to the final switch I can see the SSDP broadcasts being sent out when the iPhone is looking for media servers if I am connected via the BT Hub wireless, but not if connected to the WPA281 wireless. The same problem occurs with both the 120210 and 130530 firmware.
I have seen on-line references to blocked SSDP packets on other TP-Link products (the TL-WR841N wireless router). Is there a similar problem here, and is there a fix?
Thanks,
Ian
