TP-link TL-WR841N Router Configuration Issue: WiFi Working, No Internet on PC via LAN Port

Question

Hello, I bought the TP-link TL-WR841N router and when I want to enter its configuration page, nothing is displayed.

Only wi-fi works, no internet on the computer.
The Internet on a computer only works when connected to the LAN port.
Someone something?

Let your friend check the IP of the network card. In most cases, the new router doesn't have dhcp enabled and windows gives a random IP address from the auto configurator. Please try to change the network card's IP address to static (IP: 192.168.0.5; Mask: 255.255.255.0; Gate: 192.168.0.1) and then go to the configuration page: http://tplinklogin.net.

I refer to the manual: http://limes.com.pl/wp-content/uploads/2015/0...ik-u%C5%BCyśmie-routera-TP-LINK-TL-WR841N.pdf
page 9 (PDF page 16)

In case of problems, I can help. greetings

Internet connected to the WAN port of the router?

whiskey1983 · Answer

WIFI works, i.e. via WIFI are you able to connect to the Internet?

Lajkx · Answer

Yes, no problem. The Internet on the computer works when I connect the cable from an external router to the LAN port and then WiFi does not work for me.

Lajkx · Answer

When I connect to the wan port, the pc internet does not work.

@Lajkx Why are you entering login via 192.168.0.1? And what is this internet, on what operator's equipment delivered to the home, etc.?

Lajkx · Answer

Radio, some external modem via LAN.

Configuration of the router as AP done correctly?

KOCUREK1970 · Answer

So the PoE power supply is there - the net must work through the WAN port in TP Link. The fact that it does not work probably depends on the configuration of this net on the operator's side, which should be set / entered in your router (fixed IP, DHCP or other type of transmission, cloning of the MAC number of the network card from the computer where the service was activated). Show your network card data on the computer, what is set there in the DHCP server section, DNS servers. Next question - this TP Link is to be a router (net to wifi and LAN from it), or only to wifi? (then there can only be AP - as Moderator suggests).

Lajkx · Answer

Wifi and Lan. This is it? : p

RAFI462 · Answer

I doubt this is a matter for the operator. Rather router configuration. If the net works connected to the lan port and the computer via the cable (router as a switch), the main address is assigned to one device, therefore the net works only on the computer because there are no other addresses to assign. In the WAN configuration (static ip - if the router does not catch the same after the reset with the WAN cable plugged in), enter the address assigned to the main network device, i.e. the antenna, and it should work. The cable from the Internet must be connected to the WAN. In fact, I also had a problem with the Tenda router once. It lost packets on the older model of the router. After buying a new version, it flashes nice (INEA FTTH). There have never been problems with TP-LINKS (just in my case).
Added after 4 [minutes]:
I don't think it was exactly that. To configure the connection, go to the network card that is connected to the router and go to "Details". What was posted here allows you to manually configure the card. And if there is Internet, the card has correctly detected the connection

If the IP address is different from 192.168.xx (i.e. DHCP does not work properly or windows used auto-configuration), only inform about it (the main address is not given on the forums)

KOCUREK1970 · Answer

We don't know that. That's why I asked you to show these settings - operators often have their own settings on the radio network. And I also pointed out: It is the author himself who has to check (or find out from the operator). You can also reset TP Link with the button, connect the antenna cable to the WAN port in this TP Link, connect to the LAN port with this TP Link with a cable, set the type of DHCP connection after logging in and see if the connection has been established.

RAFI462 · Answer

Thanks for the info. I have not even met with it yet that operators enter their own settings into the client's computer (it used to be like the usual directional antennas) - I used to have it like that. Now, rather, there are antennas where a network card (accesspoint) is built-in and already sends the network over the LAN, but if you say so, it is for sure.

KOCUREK1970 · Answer

A common practice with the radio Internet - a given IP address from a private pool and own DNS.

Lajkx · Answer

I had a tendency but it started to crash after reinstalling both Windows and Linux so I figured it was time to switch to TP-Link. ^ With an internet cable connected to the LAN port. ^ And here is when I plugged into the WAN port. generally, my supplier recommends connecting the cable to the Lan port (that's how it is at my uncle's), but Wifi works without any problems.

RAFI462 · Answer

I currently also have a cable with the net, I have a lan connected, I only have 3 routers and the main one gives out addresses after dhcp and the rest is not even configured, only the wifi password is entered and dhcp is turned off because they work as a switch. If you have the cable in the LAN and the provider assigns only one ip address, then the net will be on only one device,

Lajkx · Answer

Well, that's what I have, at least a friend or aunt have from the same supplier and everything works fine for them. : x

The topic can be closed, reinstall the system helped.
