PC can't connect to internet using range extender TL WA854RE
PC can't connect to internet using range extender TL WA854RE
hi guys, i want to ask if there is someone had the same problem as i have.
my wifi connection is not reaching my room so i bought TL WA854RE as an extender for my connection
the connection is good to reach my room with a strong signal. the problem is my computer can't connect to the internet after successfully connected to the extender. it always get tentative ip address. even if it connected, after 5 minutes it gets tentative ip address again. and the PC is the only one facing this problem. other devices like laptop, and smartphones can connect effortlessly.
i use TL-WN881ND as wifi adapter and TL-WA854RE as range extender and windows 10 Pro operating system
i tried so many ways to fix this problem such as :
- restarting the extender and the router
- rebooting the extender
- resetting pc network
- using same SSID as the router
- turning off DHCP in extender
- getting the latest driver/firmware both on extender and wifi adapter
- even i reinstalling my windows
my question is what caused my pc cant connect to internet via range extender and how to fix this problem?
i am searching everywhere to solve this problem and getting desperate for a solution, so kindly pls anyone who knows can help me with my problem,
thank you

@O.mnd It seems that your PC failed to obtain IP address from your router via extender.
So what's the model No. of your extender and hardware version? 854RE_V3 or other. Just check the label.
or please sent me a FULL screenshot of the status page on 854RE as below

@Jose_Maria I tried to find some information about your router. And I noticed that your router has band steering function. From my experience, this may cause unstable issue.
Please disable that function on your router.

Many thanks, Kevin.
I changed the configuration in the router. I tell you something in a few days.
