TP-Link 300Mbps Wireless :: TL-WR941ND Breaking Internet Connection

ISP : Toya Lodz
This is already my second model of the router, which got under warranty. The first model had a problem because it brokes off Internet connections. This second model also breaks the connection. I'm going to give it to complain. Before I do it I would like to ask if there are any ways to improve the router without the need to dispose of the device.

Currently I am using 2 WA5210Gs and a WR941ND to send my wireless connection from one home to another. The original home utilizes a TDS DSL modem/router combo. Everything works great, but then generally withing 24 hours I will randomly drop my internet connection in the second home, but the network is still up and running strong. The modem is not the problem, because I am able to grab a faint signal from the WA5210G AP connected to the modem and access the internet, and the client WA5210G AP is running at full signal. If I power down the router and restart it, the problem is fixed, but happens again within 24 hours. Originally I changed the IP on the WR941 thinking it was an IP conflict with the modem/router, but the problem occurred again. I also tried switching to unicast DHCP, but the problem still persisted. I looked for a firmware update, but couldn't find a newer version..

I have two(2) WR941ND routers working at my home. The primary has IP : 192.168.1.2 , this primary router is working as an Acess Point, DHCP is OFF, and no wireless security activated. This primary router is connected to a DSL modem+router and DHCP is activated on it.For the secondary router I configred 192.168.1.100 . On the secondary router I have activated WDS function as well as Wireless Security (WPA2) , DHCP is Off on it. This secondary router is to work as wireless bridge + Access Point. You will understand that this secondary router is wirelessly connected to the primary one.I am able to configure all, and all things work correctly for few days at a time.But if at any time the secondary router is switched OFF, and then again switched ON, it seems to have lost al the settings and its IPs, and thus unable to connect to primary router. At such time I am unable to locate /connect my laptop to this secondary router, and it keeps on searching & searching.

This wireless router keeps freezing. It might stay up for 6 hours at the most, then I have to reset it or unplug for 10 seconds to get it to reset. I updated the firmware a few months ago thinking this would solve the problem. It hasn't.

I updated my firmware due to connection issues, now it gets stuck when trying to load the console. I can see the grey pipe separators on the screen, but nothing else. I've tried chrome, firefox, and IE, but still nothing. The wireless AP is active, and i can connect wirelessly, and i can ping it. just cant get the console to show.

I have two routers, a TP-Link TD-W8968 (main & connected to ADSL) and a TL-WR841N (client) and I'm trying to get WDS working over them in order to use my PS3/media player etc at the tv.
1) are these 2 pieces of hardware compatible for WDS? Status of both hardware seems to indicate yes
2) if compatible, what am I missing so devices behind the client router can access the internet connection.

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 would like to connect a device (dataloger that sends data to a remote server via internet) which only has LAN port to a wireless network on the location. I managed to do this once with WA901ND configured in Client mode (WA901ND acts like a wireless card for this data loger).Does WR941ND support this feature (which feature should I use?) or should I buy WA901ND again?

We are trying to use a TL-WR941ND purchased about a month ago, but it keeps hanging, usually within a day or so of operation.To be clear: by "hanging" I mean the device stops providing wireless services (its SSID is no longer visible in WiFi clients) and becomes nonresponsive to pings or control access attempts (via settings web page) from the internal network connections.The device is used in a very simple scenario, where it's being employed as a simple access point, not as a router. As such, the device's configuration is as follows:
* WAN interface is configured with a dummy static IP (10.10.10.10/24) with gateway and DNS set to the internal IP address of the actual routing device connected to the external world.
* LAN interface is configured with an IP address inside the actual internal IP subnet (192.168.1.0/24).
* DHCP is also disabled as this service is already provided.
* Wireless settings: radio enabled, SSID broadcast enabled, WDS disabled, 11bgn mixed mode, auto channel width, max TX rate, channel 7 (manually set). Using WPA-PSK security.
Rest of the settings are unchanged from their default values, as the device isn't being used as an IP router by any client - just as a WiFi/Ethernet layer 2 bridge. We're using what appears to be TP-Link's latest stock firmware for the device.The settings described above appear to provide the connectivity required by the WiFi clients. However, the device continuously hangs within a day or so of operation, requiring someone to physically attend to the device and cold-restarting it (disconnecting it from power and reconnecting it) to regain an operational state.
After performing a cold restart, the system log shows nothing beyond the startup entries: "System started" entry followed by security info entries regarding enabled protocols. Then the device appears to work well for a while, until it hangs again, forcing again someone to attend to the device, etc.

I have a problem with files sharing via wi-fi. I can not share files over the network using wi-fi connections. While the network is the cable connection sharing is available. The network also acts as one computer is connected by a cable to the router and the other via wifi. But if the two computers are working through wifi network does not work. Are there any settings in the router, which can cause blocking calls via wifi?

I currently have a issue with my TP-link WR941N.When I first connected the router I had a good internet speeds of about 70 mbps. My max provided by the ISP is 120Mbps but 70 was acceptable for me. Recently however the connection is terrible. I regularly have a speeds of 6Mbps via the router, When i directly to the modem via kabel I get a speed of 120Mbps. Therefore I ruled out that the connectivity problem is due to my ISP.

I have a T L-WR1043ND v1.9 with the latest factory firmware that I recently purchased. Ran fine for a couple of weeks. Now my WAN connection seems to be dropping. I get an IP and DNS from the ISP but I cannot ping anything (google etc...) past the router. I have to hit the detect button or release and renew the IP in order to gain access. Then after a few hours or a day the issue reoccurs.

I've got a problem with the wireless dropping out randomly. It may take a week before it stops or a couple of hours. I originally thought my microwave oven was swamping the signal when we used it so I relocated the router much further away but this hasn't changed anything. I can still log in to the router from a computer on the wired ports and reboot the router. It also thinks the wireless is working but everything looses connection to it. We have 3 laptops and 4 phones that use the wireless and they all cannot connect when it goes down. This is only a new device - less than 6 months?

Every 5 to 7 days my router loses connection with WAN (ISP modem) but connection over LAN is fine. It seems that 1043ND tries to connect to DSL modem from AT&T by username and password (that does not exists) instead of doing Dynamic IP. I understand that AT&T modem is of type of PPPoE but there is not a password or user id and connection must be dynamic. Page 192.168.0.1/logininfo of modem complains that I was trying to login with incorrect user id password. Every time I have to
1- connect the modem directly to my computer so the modem resets.
2- I have to reset 1043ND to factory default, reboot, and connect cables back how they were, Then go to WAN page do a release and renew to get connected to WAN again.

recently i bought wireless router TL-WR841N and there hasn't been a day or should i say few hours without restarting/turning on-off.I have cable(no modems,etc)Longest time it has ran without restarting was around 20hours.The problem is it RANDOMLY looses connection like this , but it's not the only problem , mostly when i leave computer and go to sleep or other business i leave router turner ON (no else have access to it and no one touches it), when i come back it just does not connect to internet, it shows that everything is fine , but i have no access to internet.This happens to all connected computers.I have dynamic ip I have russian version of windows xp sp3 , but i think everything is pretty understandable here. connection timed out/request timed out

FYI the problem is not in my computers(i tried setting up wireless networks from 2 different pc's) and i'm pretty sure it's not ISP's fault too(everything works fine through cable) , because this never happens with other wireless networks, etc.

Last week I upgraded the firmware in my D LINK DIR-601 from 1.01NA to 1.02NA. This resulted in breaking my VoIP service (causing one-way audio on incoming calls - callers could hear me but I could not hear them). I am using a SIP-based service from Speakeasy (Broad soft) with a Cisco 504G phone. Once I downgraded the router back to 1.01NA, the service started working again.
I don't know if anybody else has reported an SIP-related issues with this firmware.

I own a TL-WR1043ND. Until recently it has been working like clock work but after a power cut it seems to have lost its settings. Currently there is a WiFi network: both my iMac and my MacBook Pro manage to create a network between them and i can access / transfer files from one to the other without any problems what so ever. My Gmail app on my iPhone also updates emails on this same network. But when i try to browse the web on both Safari or Firefox or check my email on Mail (OSX email client) I am not being allowed to do so. Its as though there is not internet connection. The same thing is happening to my wife when she is using her Nexus 7.
Unfortunately i have lost my DVD with the setup files and I am there for not managing to access the settings of the router. I have tried searching the web to find the downloadable software but it turns out the only ones that i found are for Windows only.The only way to access the web and update my emails etc is when i connect to the modem via Ethernet cable.
