Region : Spain

Model : TL-WA801ND

Hardware Version : V2

Firmware Version : 140425

ISP :

Hei guys.
I'm trying to extend my Internet connection (SSID1), creating a new SSID (SSID2).

So I'm using " Bridge with AP" modus. Everything looks good. I can connect my laptop and smartphone to the new SSID2 but Internet is not working.

Wireless Name of Remote AP: SSID1 of my router (Internet provider).
Local Wireless Name: new SSID2

Both same wireless security mode WPA2 and same password.

DHCP Server: Disable
IP Address: 192.168.0.254
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Can someone help me? Why is not working? I'm getting crazy.

What's the default gateway on your laptop connected to the new SSID 2?
WA801 is using smart IP or static IP?

Hi Ada.

WA801 uses static IP

Your main router has no MAC filtering rules? You should double check Wi-Fi password of your main router.
I don't think WA801 has been configured properly. Can you ping router's IP on web interface of WA801?

Hi,

From TPLINK, they answered me.....

1,While TL-WA801ND is working in bridge with AP mode, each wireless data frame contains four address fields.So, only when the main router supports 4-address frame, the TL-WA801ND’s "bridge with AP" will work.

2,Normally , the main router just only supports 3-address frame.

3,So,we can not use this mode.


Can be this the reason???

Have you been able to resolve the issue ? is the 4-address problem the cause ? i have the same problem here !! i can not configure the 801ND as bridge with AP (linksys).

Any help please ?

If your router does support 4 addr (standard WDS), you cannot use bridge with AP mode on WA801ND because WA801ND uses 4 addr in bridge mode. (WA901ND has a WDS option when configured in bridge mode which allow users to enable/disable 4addr mode)

An alternative choice is to use universal repeater mode.
