Hi @Adheet79, thanks for bringing this up.

 

The WR840N actually supports WISP mode already as you can confirm and configure it as per the instructions in the User Manual:

https://www.tp-link.com/us/user-guides/TL-WR840N_V6.2/chapter-5-configure-the-router-in-wisp-mode#ug-sub-title-3

 

It also supports Range Extender mode if you want to extend the wireless signal of the main router:

@Jitesh 

 

Hello, thanks for your valued suggestion.

 

Currently, there are not any plans to eventually add the support for Tether management or WISP mode on the WR840N, but this will be forwarded as a feature request to our developers for consideration. Thank you again for your feedback.

 

Good days.

@Kevin_Z Hi Kevin, is this statement still confirm until today ??? Because I just bought this TL-WR840N and written in the advertisement that it support WISP. And i already try to follow your recommendation in other thread, I'm stuck on "enable WDS Bridging" as its not listed in the tplinkwifi.net. Please advice
