TL-WA901ND V5 in client mode loses connection
Model :
Hardware Version :
Firmware Version :
ISP :
I am upstairs from a wireless router. I use a TL-WA901ND V5 in client mode to provide an ethernet connection to my Linux computer. This gives me excellent internet connection speed most of the time.
Sometimes the connection breaks. My computer indicates a lost connection. Simply restarting the TPlink does not work.
The most reliable way to get it back is to shutdown the computer, turn off the TPlink, turn it back on, wait for it to finish connecting. Then, turn the TPlink off a second time, turn it back on, wait for it to finish connecting. Then boot my computer, and usually the connection is fine.
It is important to restart the TPlink twice.
Any recommendations will be greatly appreciated.
Steve
