@woozle I made your change, but it doesn't work

@terziyski terziyski @Sunshine doesn't work, see error below 192.168.0.3 is a tplink 8980 access point connected via LAN. why am I reading that IP? by deactivating it, I now see the 192.168.0.2...

UP the device disappeared again in the device list, but can be reached from the ip address.

@Sunshine I attach a screenshot of the tplink 8980 connected via LAN. All right? It makes me manually enter the IP address. It seems like I have to enter a static IP... how should I set it up?

@Sunshine I can have 2 devices with different fixed IPs in the same network that have the same internal port open and a different external port. example device 1 internal port 3074 external port 3074...

@JohnGhost update: restarting the tp link the access point is visible again. why?
