tp-link archer AX6000: The router stuck on blue circulating light

Wed, 10 Jul 2024 06:43:56 -0700

the router when I turn it on is stuck on the blue circulating light, after checking with the repair shop they said that it needs a new EEPROM (a piece where the firmware of the router is stored) which they do not have at the repair shop.
ill need a donation from a similar router from which they can take the EEPROM and install it on my router or I need to find a place where I can buy the EEPROM itself. can you please advise where I can order the EEPROM for the TP-Link AX6000 router?

ليسه هناك مشكله كبيل التيار الكهربائي كل لمبات الجهاز والعه ولم يعطي اشاره نيت ولايحمل علي البحث

There is no problem with the power cable, all the lights in the device are on and off, and it does not give a net signal and does not allow me to search.

TP-Link Archer C7: Router does not turn on.

Sat, 13 Jan 2024 08:23:58 -0700

I have the C7 router. During a thunderstorm, the router just stopped. There are no lights.

I tried the power adapter on other routers that I have and it turns them on, so the issue is not in the power adapter.

Is there anyway to fix C7 which does not turn on? Thanks for your help in advance.

TP-Link Archer C7: Laptop having trouble connecting to TP-Link range extender

Tue, 16 Nov 2021 21:56:05 -0700

Hi all,

I am having trouble with my TP-link range extender. I use it in access point mode and my laptop has a lot of trouble connecting to it wirelessly. The odd thing is that my phone connects to it without a hitch.

Sometimes my laptop connects to it in one go, sometimes it needs 20 attempts until it finally connects. I am wondering what I can do about it.

Things I have tried:

Different OS, changing the channels of our router and updating wireless drivers. My laptop uses a killer wireless card.

Hope anyone can help! Cheers

TP-Link Archer C7: No power after overvoltage.

Wed, 17 Mar 2021 06:48:23 -0700

After a “problem” with my power supply my Router stoped working. No leds. No activity.

Tried diferents power supplys with no success.

After opening it. i can clearly see the damage.

For what i can see, there are two resistors and a capacitor blown up.

Any idea what are they values? and how can i replace them?

Thanks in advance

TP-Link Archer C7: power adapter port may be damaged?

Tue, 26 Jan 2021 19:41:31 -0700

The cylindrical end of my power adapter fits too loosely into my archer 2300 router port, and it loses connection if I so much as breathe in it. Any way I can make it fit more snugly? Is it easy to replace the faulty port?
