TP-Link Powerline adapters

2023-01-11 11:48:05

Model: TL-WPA8631P KIT

Hardware Version: V3

Firmware Version: 3.0.0 Build20210625 Rel. 42417

Hi, I have a brand new TP-Link WPA8631P kit and I have a Telstra 5g Wireless Dongle model MU500 which I currently access the internet from. I connect the Telstra 5G dongle with an ethernet cable to the TL-PA8010P (ethernet port) and connect my laptop to the TP-Link wireless SSID (TP-Link_3250) which connects fine but I have no internet. If I plug the ethernet cable from the Telstra 5G dongle into my laptop , the internet works fine. Any suggestions ?

@glenn0524 it sounds like you're stuck in the same scenario as MANY others (including me) - Smart DHCP is awful and should be disabled.

See here for more details:

1. Update the firmware

2. Disable DHCP Server

That should be all that's required.
