Region : UnitedKingdom

Model : TL-WA730RE

Hardware Version : V1

Firmware Version :

ISP : BT


I have installed a TL-WA730RE Extender into my home. Everything appears to be functioning (correct lights are showing). I have a problem that when the Extender is on we lose all broadband connectivity from the the BT Home Hub. As soon as I power the Extender down we get connectivity through the BT Hub.

Can you advise as to how to rectify the problem, with my limited experience my assumption is that I have a conflict between the Home Hub and the Extender

If your range extender is v1, then the problem could be the IP conflicts between the BT and range extender because both of them are 192.168.1.254. You can try the TP-LINK extender to 192.168.1.250.
Here is an extension on how to do that: http://www.tp-link.com/en/article/?faqid=357
