(It was slow with the stock firmware too, hence the update.

The most recent firmware (150-422) fixes the chromecast problems (3) but the "new connection" problem (2) persists

It's mind-boggling to me why TP-Link would continue to ship this product with clearly (in my opinion) defective firmware, when a freeware firmware exists that allows the product to do what it's advertised to do

I downloaded the previous firmware, 130121 published 1/21/2013, and downgraded the firmware on the access point.

So far I'm using the stock firmware on this router in "Universal Repeater" mode and it just works.

The first thing I did was check that the firmware on the TP-LINK was the latest available on the TP-LINK support website.

Finally, after chasing many dead ends, I tried downgrading the firmware on the TP-LINK (to version "3.13.30 Build 130121 Rel.69318n", available on the TP-LINK site).

Trying a newer firmware now but this WAP never shipped woth stable firmware or has a hardware design flaw.

i'm getting a Netgear router that has options for any case scenario.... with all that said its probably fine for most people but really TP-Link write some better firmware....

The firmware apparently changed between the time the manual was written and my batch went out, since the manual described a menu similar to the 701N, leading to much confusion as I messed with updating firmware to the latest, scouring the web, and ultimately wasted an hour on hold for support, only to have them read the manual to me

I have tried everything but this thing refuses to play nice with my existing TP-Link router (TL-WR1043ND R)

My TP-LINK Access Point allows me the use of Netflix and other applications on my tv without any disruptions, as well as internet service to my PC and my tablets; it works as I had hoped

The DHCP function on this WAP does not work as it should, at least IMO.

I'm very familiar using these types of access points for remote monitoring of our power equipment, as they do fail after a time and need replacing

This product was easy to set up and worked exactly as it was described, It's very versatile with many different functional modes
