WA-801N access point - network going down repeatedly
Region : UnitedKingdom
Model : TL-WA801ND
Hardware Version : V2
Firmware Version : 140425
ISP : Plusnet
I bought a WA-801N a bit over a year ago, and while it was never very reliable - for the first month it needed to be reset on average once a day, otherwise it would start randomly disconnecting stations and preventing them from re-connecting giving authentication errors; the frequency went down to about a couple of times a week - it was at least usable. For the last couple of days, it has been going down on average every 10-15 minutes if I reset it via the admin interface; if I power-cycle it it can stay up as much as an hour. Upgrading the firmware did not have any visible effect, apart from wiping the setup
Has anyone experienced anything like it? And is there anything I can do to mitigate the issue while i wait for a replacement to be delivered?
Thanks in advance
Eugenio
(Also, could you please explain to the anti-spam robot that the lowercase letters in TP-link are l, i, n and k? Thank you)
