I said i was not aware.  As I stated earlier for users already being helped by other Admins I would allow those admins to continue helping those specific users.  I have really only been able to focus on the replies tagging me specifically.  So if other issues were mentioned to other admins or in a reply I was not specifically tagged in I may have missed it. No other issues in the discussions I had with my QA team or engineers mentioned anything other than the dimming to off issue that was reported first back on i believe page 25 of this thread. Being that we are now on page 40 obviously there is a lot to comb through.  I am trying to be as through and transparent as possible.  If you did mention something other than the dimming issue please let me know the reply number or page number so I can review and get the details together to engage with engineering.

Thanks @Carl.

I will touch base with @Solla-topee and see where they are at.

 

However, it's kind of a slap in the face that tp-link just sent this email out.  Why would it state that, "once the update is applied, the product should perform as intended" when everyone there should know that it absolutely won't?  The product isn't ready for release!  On top of that, we're asked to update our reviews if we were one of the 11 out of 11  that left a negative one.  I think I might. wink

@Carl,

 

It seems that they are the same v1.09, but we don't know for sure because there aren't any release notes anywhere with the exception of the email that doesn't provide any version information..

That mailer was written on Friday by our local team here.  If I or any of our team here were aware of any additional issues we would not have sent out the message as was stated.  As I said we were not locally aware of any other issues until I saw your message yesterday.  This is why its "specifically, some users have experienced dimming and turning off automatically"   For the request at the end  to update the review.  This was added specifically because Amazon removed our ability to respond to reviews.  We aren't asking users to update the star rating, just that the customer provides a update to the review stating their concern was addressed.  As it states this helps us and users or potential users who may not know we did address the concern.

I received that email about 15 minutes ago, not last week.  I had posted nearly a dozen times since last week the same 8 to 10 issues, and several on the forum stated the same.

I was hoping someone can help me (anyone) @Carl 

 

I managed to open up the box and perform the installation.  I verified my line/load/travelers/neutrals etc. I made sure not to cross the traveler 1 and traveler 2 connections on the satellite switch.

 

I get the following:

- the main switch has a solid green wifi light (doesn't blink green and amber)

- the satellite switch has the glowing "o" light

- the main switch doesn't generate a wifi (TP link SSID) for me to connect to

- resetting to factory settings doesn't seem to work

 

I can't get the TP link wifi to broadcast.  Anyone know why?  Thanks in advanced!

Hello@Connu,  thank you for your detailed feedback in regard to the problem with the White Led indicator / dim level LEDs and Double tapping function, our team is currently doing some further investigation on these problems and trying to fix it, we will keep you informed if there are any further updates.

 

 

@Carl, I'll note again that @Solla-topee responded to my concerns and list of issues almost a week ago last Wednesday and hasn't responded to the forum since.  I did however, use the link in the email to send the 8 issues I've found through that channel.  Maybe that'll help get these resolved quicker or at least under the proper developer's nose.

@KS230 

 

Below is what I know of the KS230's light status:

 

 

A WiFi light staying on and green for more than 30 seconds isn't listed.  Usually though on other products I have seen that happen with the reset or reboot buttons are being depressed on the main unit.  This can happen sometimes when snapping the faceplate on. I would check that first.  make sure the 2 small buttons under the switch aren't being pressed.  

 

If that is not the case I would make sure the wires are all secured to the screws and the wire clusters are secure in a wirenut.  If either of those do not address the issue let me know.

I see.  I was not made aware of such investigations.  As for her absence its likely due to the national holiday in China this week.  10/1 through 10/7.  I have raised these concerns to the team and I will reach out individually to Solla to see where her team's investigations are at right now.  The good news is that China is technically a day ahead of us so we should start seeing responses as early as tomorrow.  As soon as I have something to share I will provide that here on this thread.
