Hello - 

I saw that the latest beta firmware supports the TP-Link Archer T2U Plus WiFi adapter but not having much luck getting it to connect. I'm using a static ip with the original tp-link adapter which works fine but when I switch it out with the T2U Plus it continially loops trying to aquire an ip address.  Have tried rebooting with the adapter in but no change so not sure if there is something I should be doing different.

Has anyone had any success getting this adapter to work?

 

Thanks

  It works fine in our lab. Does the adapter associate with your WIFI Access Point OK but it doesn't get IP from DHCP ? Did you try to remove all network settings and forget the WIFI Access Point ?

  I did try removing all network settings and forget the AP.

  I did some more testing and here's what I found. When trying to connect directly to the router wifi  (Netgear x10 R9000)  with a -34dBm signal strength it associates but just continually tries to obtain an ip address. When trying to connect via static it says connecting to 0x... but never connects.

  When changing to an access point farther away (-68dBm) it connects no problem.

   

  As I mentioned, the original tp-link adapter will connect to both the router wifi or the access point although will drop off intermittently due to weak signal strength.

  Let me know if there's something  I should  try.

  Thanks
