| TP-Link modem and router help pls. Hi,
Am wondering if anyone could please help me as i have tried everything to no success.
I have a TP-Link TD-8616 ADSL2+ modem and I bought a TP-Link TL-WR841N which i have managed to setup up properly, i am able to connect to the wireless and get internet access. However the minute i walk out of the room or a few meters away i am disconnected and i can't re-connect, i get the "windows cannot connect to TP-LINK" message. The signal strength in on excellent and i know it works because when i stand near it, it works perfect.
I phoned TP-LINK technical support who were pretty useless and couldn't fix the problem. I tried changing the channels but same thing happens and i am out of ideas!!!??
Any suggestions will be much appreciated. |

The signal strength in on excellent and i know it works because when i stand near it, it works perfect. Describe your client and indicate if you have wireless phones 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz or Blue Tooth gear and indicate how many other wireless networks are operating in close proximity to your location.
The Location of your wireless Router does make a huge difference -- so the easiest thing to try immediately is to change the location of where you placed the router. In the wireless world PLACEMENT is critical for best performance and roaming connectivity --- proper placement is as HIGH as possible and as CENTRAL as possible. 99.9% of people who use wireless gear like you have do not pay attention to placement because its inconvenient and sometimes costly to relocate the access modems to achieve proper placement.
