TL-WR1042ND cannot connect to Chromecast
Model : TL-WR1042ND
Hardware Version : 1.0
Firmware Version : 20130923 (latest)
Hello all.
I suspect this is a common issue (checked 2 threads with similar questions but without an answer to my case). Anyway, The problem is that my TL-WR1042ND cannot see Google Chromecast 2 at all: it does not appear neither in "Wireless Statistics" or the "DHCP Clients List". I can see Chromecast as a wifi node on my tablet so I am pretty sure that at least Chromecast is transmitting.Router firmware is the latest one (20130923). AP isolation is disabled. Least to say, my router is working fine with my pc, laptop, and Android devices. I have already tried the following:
Reset Chromecast via its reset button
[*]Reset the router
[*]Disabled wireless security
[*]Minimized Chromecast to router distance (less than 1m)
Still nothing works and I am feeling very frustrated. Has this router ever been successfully connected to Chromecast? Is there any setting (different than defaults) I should try?
Thank you in advance.
