Hi,

I just bought the TL-WA860RE, and everything seems to work fine. Easy setup, and it extends my wireless network just fine, BUT... I bought this extender specifically because it has an ethernet port, as I need to connect a wired device a couple of rooms away from my router. The problem is that as soon as I plug in a device in the ethernet port, the internet connection on the extender goes south. I'm not sure what happens, but it looks like everything just starts going super slow. And that goes for both the wired connected device and the wireless connected devices. As soon as I disconnect the ethernet cable from the extender or simply just shut down the connected device, the wireless connection starts working again. I've tried connecting my setup box and my laptop through the ethernet cable, and the problem occurs which ever device I use. I've also tried switching cables. The problem remains the same. As soon as I connect a device through ethernet, the whole thing stops working. Ethernet and wireless alike.

Am I doing something wrong or have I just recieved a faulty device?
