Model: EX511  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 0.7.0 3.0.0 v607e.0 Build 240930 Rel.11206n

I recently purchased a TP-Link EX511 router and am experiencing difficulties linking it to my TP-Link Cloud account. I have tried the process through both the browser and the Tether and Aginet apps, but without success.

In both cases, the router is detected on the local network, but when attempting to link it to the cloud, the process fails. I have reset the equipment twice, following the standard reset procedure, but the problem persists.

It is important to note that, apart from this cloud linking issue, the router is working normally and the internet connection is stable.

I would like to know if anyone has encountered this problem or if there is a known solution. Below, I detail some information that may be relevant:

  • Router model: TP-Link EX511
  • Firmware version: 0.7.0 3.0.0 v607e.0 Build 240930 Rel.11206n

I appreciate your attention and help in advance.

Adquiri recentemente um roteador TP-Link EX511 e estou enfrentando dificuldades para vinculá-lo à minha conta TP-Link Cloud. Já tentei realizar o processo através do navegador e dos aplicativos Tether e Aginet, mas sem sucesso.

Em ambos os casos, o roteador é detectado na rede local, mas ao tentar vinculá-lo à nuvem, o processo falha. Já reiniciei o equipamento duas vezes, seguindo o procedimento padrão de reset, mas o problema persiste.

É importante ressaltar que, fora essa questão da vinculação à nuvem, o roteador está funcionando normalmente e a conexão com a internet está estável.

Gostaria de saber se alguém já enfrentou esse problema ou se há alguma solução conhecida. Abaixo, detalho algumas informações que podem ser relevantes:

  • Modelo do roteador: TP-Link EX511
  • Versão do firmware: 0.7.0 3.0.0 v607e.0 Build 240930 Rel.11206n

Hi  @hedersacj,

EX511 is a customized device specifically designed for local Service Providers. Its software is tailored to meet the unique requirements of these providers, ensuring alignment with their specific needs.

 

Take TP-Link normal router for an example, please follow these steps to link your device to the TP-Link cloud: 

Method One: Using the Tether app (for Tether-compatible models). 
    1. Launch the Tether app and log in using the local password you set for the router. 
    2. Go to More > Manager or Tools > TP-Link ID and follow the on-screen instructions to add an owner or manager. 


Method Two: Using the web-based management page. 
    1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net and log in using the local password you set for the router. 
    2. Go to Settings > TP-Link Cloud. 
    3. Enter your TP-Link ID information, then click LOG IN & BIND. If you don't have a TP-Link ID, click Sign Up to create one. 

 

We recommend contacting the technical support of your Service Provider who supplied the device, as they are best suited to provide the necessary assistance for your device.

I am having the same problem.

 

Firstly - one mistake in your response is that when you try to add local router it asks for 'username' but it doesn't accept the default username 'admin'.

 

Secondly - if this device cannot be administered remotely because it's has a customised service provider configuration / firmware, please for the love of all things good - remove the option to create / link it to a TP-Link account. Otherwise you're wasting people's time.

Hi @DisgruntledUs,

Thank you for your reply.

 

As I said before, the suggestions I provide are general suggestions for TP-Link normal routers.
Customized Modem/Router usually has a default login password or username. The following is a reference guide for finding the built-in password for logging into the web in different regions:What's the login/device password for TP-Link Customized Modem/Router?

 

We recommend that users of customized routers contact their service provider, because there may be built-in configuration settings that need to be adjusted and modified, which requires guidance from service provider support.

 

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.
