And here, from what I remember, you should connect to the Wi-Fi broadcast by the smart device and not to your router.
When switching to the latter mode, the device sends a SmartLife*** or Tuya*** wifi signal or something similar.
Does this device have wifi and zigbee? What model is this?
Here's a nice description:

I did as you wrote.
Now for some explanations.
In fact, as you wrote and described in the manual, the smart switch creates the so-called hotspot to connect, but the problem is that before you create it, you also need to provide the name of the network you are connected to. Then in the next steps it creates a hotspot.
So we return to the starting point.
When going through the pairing process in AP mode, I enter the name of the UPC router network, move on, the device creates a hotspot and ...... sneezes. There is no connection.
And now an interesting fact, the same procedure for the AP mode, but in the first step I provide the repeater network or in the second attempt the new TP-Link router and ...... everything goes smoothly and without any glitches. The connection is successful, the switch works, the app sees it.
So the problem is still the UPC router.
I have an option that if I cannot solve the problem, although there should be a way, I will leave the TP-LINK router turned on for these smart devices.
However, I would prefer to connect to the UPC router so as not to crowd the WiFi network with a new router.
