Model: TL-R470T+  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hey there
 

I am looking to install my TL-R470T+ load balancer but by connecting the ISP modem to the WAN input and my computer to the LAN output following the instructions described on TL-R470T+ Installation Guide, I have no internet access .

 

Although:


- I have internet if I connect directly without going through the TL-R470T+ router

- the TL-R470T+ indicator lights are green and indicate normal operating status

So I can not access the IP 192.168.0.1. and continue the installation of the TL-R470T+
I have already reset the TL-R470T+ without success

 

Can you help me? Is it a hardware issue?

 

Best regards

Hey

 

The best thing to do is ensure you can get an IP from the R470, to do this connect it directly to your PC alone (not to your ISP Router).   See if your PC gets an address allocated to it by checking the network connection status, this should be something like  192.168.0.123    If so check the default gateway address and open that address in the browser, this should get you to the R470 and allow you to configure it (offline anyways)

 

Then while in the gui for the R470 connect the ISP router and see what happens..  It could be that the ISP router has the same address (192.168.y.z) as the R470 so you would need to change one of them to 192.168.10.1 for example.

 

See how you get on and message us back.

Try reboot the router, wait 5 minutes. And make sure the PC is connected to LAN port of the router. If I'm not wrong the first two ports(from left) on this router are both WAN ports.
