TP-Link 150Mbps Wireless :: WR743ND WAN-Port Fried / Possible To Re-configure?
Mar 15, 2013
Region : Argentina
Model : TL-WR743ND
Hardware Version : V2
My 743ND v2, connected to a Ubiquity AirGrid M5, got its WAN port fried due to a power surge. Lightning struck our desolate Paraguayan power grid close to my location, and I guess the power surge went throught the PoE adaptor of the AirGrid into the WAN port of the 743ND. ethernet ports and Wifi work fine, just the WAN is dead.
Is there any way to tell the router to use one of the 4 ethernet ports as uplink instead of the dead WAN port?Can't find such an option in the router administration, and the only hint I found on the web so far leads to a wildly experimental version of Open-WRT, which I would love to avoid...

not getting advertised 150Mbps speed , only getting 72Mbps installed the latest firmware TL-WR740N_V4_130104 and the performance is so bad that i cant even use skype anymore , the main reason to buy this router was to move from 54Mbps to 150Mbps but not sure what is wrong , how to achieve that 150Mbps speed

I have TL-WR740N router. ISP should provide me up to 100Mb/s internet speed. Actual measurements shows me about 80 Mb/s. The problem is when I enable 3389 port in Port Triggering my internet speed drops to 2,5 Mb/s. When I disable port triggering, speed become normal again.

We need to configure the AP in such a way, only 1 antenna to be used & not other two, to meet some mounting requirements/limitations. Will I be able to do this using any test/debug commands?
Essentially I want this AP to be operating in 1x1 spatial stream, & with no antenna diversity, so that I can connect only 1 antenna & be deterministic about AP using only connected Antenna RF port & not others
With out configuring anything, when I connect only 1 Antenna, I observed that signal is fluctuating on Client Application & causing the applications traffic stream disconnect.

I have a BSNL BB connection. When I use the connection directly, without adding TP Link router, all the websites open flawlessly. Once when I connect the wireless router, certain websites for example Yahoomail, pepperfry.com, yepme.com don't open at all. These are just examples, but I'm unable to access many sites which is a bit annoying. But sites such as gmail, youtube, facebook open clean, there are no issues. I didn't make any configuration changes too. I tried it more than three or four times, but there is a restricted access only.

I did a hard reset and after that, when i power on the router, it works for aprox. 15 seconds, so i can access the interface at 192.168.1.1, but after those 15 seconds it doesnt respond. The lights are on as if it was perfect, but cant go on admins interface and ping doesnt work either. I did several resets, did the 30/30/30, and clicked on reset to factory defaults on those 15 seconds but nothing happens.

I have a WR700N set up in bridge mode so as to provide a wifi signal in far end of our home. I used Bridge so we can tell which router we are connecting to. So we have two SSIDs (MySSID1 and MySSID2) Both with secure log-in. This works fine for about a day, and then disconnects. I then have to mess with the WR700N by plugging it in and out, maybe logging into it and changing something. Then it will work again - for a day
I updated the firmware with no change. Main router is a Dlink 615 with IP of 192.168.0.1. connected to cable modem. TP-LINK is set at default of 192.168.0.254 and gets a wireless signal from dlink.In an attempt to improve situation, I now have both units set to channel 11 and with fixed 20Mhz channel width. b/g/n on TP and g/n on dlink.

Just bought a new TP-Link TL-WR720N router. Hooked it up and got internet access just fine. However, when I go to [URL] or http://192.198.0.1 to try and login to setup the router, I just get the standard message:
Username or Password is incorrect. Please refer to the troubleshooting below:
Is the "Caps Lock" enabled on your keyboard? The username and password must be lowercase, please ensure that the "Caps Lock" LED is disabled on your keyboard and try again.Forgot your username or password? Please reset the device to the factory default settings if you have forgotten your username or password. The default username and password are both set as "admin". Note: The settings will be restored to factory default after the resetting.How to restore the device to the factory default settings? Firstly locate the reset button on the rear panel of the unit, whilst the device is powered on press and hold the reset button for more than 5 seconds, the device will then reboot and restore itself to the factory default settings. I am using a Cat 5e ethernet cable, I don't have NOD32 or any other antivirus or firewall blocking access, I even changed the settings and disabled IPv6 via ethernet since that was also suggested in the FAQ, but I still don't get a login screen.
I reset the router, rebooted my computer, unplugged the modem/router, reset everything again, double checked the IP address and pinged the router with excellent results, but nothing makes it so the login screen appears.I then hooked up the router to a PC running Windows XP with Internet Explorer 8 and the login screen works fine like you would expect. Went in, adjusted settings, everything works ok. This router is very new, it should support Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 9, shouldn't it? I don't want to have to keep old computers around just to login and change settings on my router.There must be some default setting in Windows 7 or in IE9 that causes this issue with the TL-WR720N router. I've tried everything that seems to cause the same issue on other routers, both TP-Link and other brands, and none of those seem to be what's causing this. TP-Link might want to address this ASAP and fix whatever causes it, otherwise this router is not going to do very well in the marketplace if setting it up with Windows 7 PCs with IE9 is a problem. It should work with default settings, same as it seems to with Windows XP and IE8.

I have just bought the device. I works fine as a AP out of the box. I want to use it as a repeater of my wireless network which uses a Linksys Simultaneous Dual Band N Router WRT400N
1. To do the setup, I have tried to login at 192.168.0.254 I cannot do this (a) using a wireless connection to a Linksys router which is connected to the cable modem and (b) wired connection to the router which is connected to the cable modem. The attempts get a timeout messaage.
2. The default gateway is 192.168.1.1. The DHCP server has the same address. My computer is using 192.168.1.101.
3. I use McAfee Internet Security software.

I have high speed internet connection. The following image shows how my ISP provides internet connections:
ISP.jpg
I am required to put IP address in my computer network settings. This IP is used to go to login page to put username/password. It is a web based authentication(kind of captive portal you can call). Done! I am connected to the internet. Super fast!Now, I would like to share this internet connection between two computers using WR741ND router. So, what I am doing is having both these two computers connected to the router using LAN ports whereas my ISP cable to the WAN port of the router. IP settings of both the computers are set to: Obtain IP address automatically.Configuration in the router:
Logged into the router--->Network--->WAN--->Static IP--->Settings saved
I am able to connect to the internet using any of the PCs. The problem is I am unable to access the internet simultaneously using both the computers. When one computer is in the process of loading website and I try to open a website on second computer the second computer does not start loading website at all and even the first computer stops opening the website.What change do I need to make in the router configuration? Can this internet connection be shared at all?

I have recently purchased a new desktop computer that does not have an internal WiFi card. To remedy this I bought the TP Link TL-WR702N. Currently my access to the internet is provided by a mobile WiFi router (one of these: { URL}, that spreads a wireless signal throughout my house for things like my phone and laptop to connect to. I was under the impression that the WR702N would be able to connect to this network and let my new computer run on it (I believe it's called client mode?)
Now so far I have not been able to get my computer to recognize the existence of the TP Link modem, despite both Ethernet and USB cables being plugged into the computer. I think I need both logging in and changing the mode from AP to client mode.
I emailed support and was given the instruction to read this FAQ [URL], however, when following those instructions, after clicking on "Change adapter settings" instead of reading the router, all I get is a blank screen.
