Hi everyone, I hope you guys can help me!  I bought a Archer AX55 router and also the TL-WPA7517 kit Wi-Fi power line extender. I have gone through so many factory resets it's driving me nuts. I start fresh and setup the AX55 I write down the administration p/w the ssid and p/w, I write down everything. The I setup the extender and write down logins and p/w's. This is where I get stuck, I download the tpPLC app and set it up with no problem. Now, I download the Tether app and I log into the app with the right tp ID. Then I'm into My Devices, I have no problems getting into the Archer AX55 BUT! I cannot login to the TL-WPA7517. I touch the TL-WPA7517 and it goes to the p/w entry. As I said before I write down all the login's and p/w's and I STILL can't get in and I'm locked out for two hrs. As I said I have factory reset so many times but when I get to the Tether app and TL-WPA7517 I don't have the right p/w / login. I mean is it me being stupid, blind or is it the system?

Sorry for the long explanation. 
 

Thanks in advance

Hi, TL-WPA7517 support tpPLC App but it doesn't support Tether App, so please use tpPLC App to see if it could detect the powerline extender and manage it properly.

HI

 

Just bought this power line adapter to support my mesh setup with the archer 6000. It works as a wifi device but when you first boot it up and it insists on a password change, that where it goes wrong. 

 

I change the password to a well know version, still cant log onto this device through tether or plc app. It always says wrong password and then if you not careful it stops you doing anything for 2 hours. 

 

How is this resolvable??? No matter how many resets and password changes, it seems to not remember what is typed in. I have even tried the standard admin password and nothing at all. Still the same problem. 

 

I have been using Tp Link power line Adaptar and mesh devices for a a while now and no problems installing them and interacting with them, until this new product. 

 

Is this a hardware glitch???

Hi, please note that TL-WPA7517 may have two passwords, one wireless password, the other login password for tpPLC App, tpPLC Utility or the device web interface, please make sure you entered the correct login password instead of the wireless password.

 

If tpPLC App always shows the login password incorrect, please try to install tpPLC utility and try to login the powerline extender with the same password to see if it works.

If it still doesn't work, please try to find the power extender current IP address on your router's client list, then use the powerline extender IP address to login its web interface to see if the same login password works.

 

Please also share with us some screenshots if there is any further issue.
