743 as wireless client can only allow one wired device connected?
Region : Hongkong
Model : TL-WR743ND
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version :
ISP :
I use my TL-WR743ND v1 as a wireless client, mostly for connecting a Squeezebox Touch via ethernet (not using the SBT's own wifi because of its location). I also have the 743's ethernet ports connected to things like my TV and my surround amp. I remember very early on when I got this router, all of the devices seem to be able to go through with no issue. BTW, DHCP is set to off. Lately I find that when I am playing music on my Squeezebox and I turn on the surround amp (which is a DLNA device and has certain control features over network), the music on the SBT will stop and it will lose its connection. I also check the TV and it seems that it is not connected, too. A reboot of the 743 will fix the SBT's connection. I don't use the other machine's (other than the SBT) ethernet that much so I don't know when it started acting like this, or maybe it was like that all along but I just didn't know.
My question is, can the 743 (as wireless client) handle a few devices connected at the same time? If so, what could be wrong with my setup now?
Thanks.
