| Video Discription | In TP-Link's WDS Bridging setup configuration document they leave out a crucial step and the router is not fully setup until you complete one last step in the process. https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/1555/ At the end of this document there should be another step calling out the IPTV/VLAN section where the "Enable IPTV/VLAN" box must be checked, the "Bridge" Mode must be set and the LAN ports 1-4 must be set to "Internet". Without this step you will only be transmitting a wireless signal from your Tp-Link router, but the ethernet LAN ports 1-4 will not be functional.

Send your thanks to them. @alitaherimoghadam8894 Hi Mike, thank you for the video and saving us a lot of time! For those who are asking about losing access to the tp-link router/ bridge after saving the setting, I was in the same boat but I found this simple solution to work. I checked the IP range the main router with internet access uses for dhcp, and assigned the tp-link bridge with something within that range rather than sticking with default 192.168.0.x range as shown on the video. That's it! many home routers use default subnets like 192.168.100.0/24, or 10.10.10.0/24. in this case my home router uses 192.168.1.0/24 range, so I assigned an un-used IP in that range to the tp-link bridge - lets say, 192.168.1.188/24. This allows you to still connect to the tp-link router even when its in bridge mode. because technically speaking you are still connected to the main network (router with internet), so the main router should have a way to reach the tp-link bridge. that's only possible if they are both using the same range. Hope this helps! 2zDveYYo2JY |
