HI,
Just moved over to WiFi 7 on EE and i am having trouble with extenders, i have 1 plugged into port 1 with no issues. i have another in port 2 and nothing works, i have tried ports 3 and 4 same results.
i have also tried to connect the smart hybrid in ports 2,3 and 4 and that wont connect either?
how do i check the ports are on or off?
at 1 stage i had an extender in port 2 and it appears as a device on Port 1?
any help will be great.
thanks

Hi, tp-link 1000 and tp-link 600.

@rowsell71 Ah ok.
The Pro router has 2.5Gb LAN ports and they do seem sensitive when lower speed devices are plugged in. The 1000 has 1Gb ports, but I suspect the600 may only have 100Mb ports. sometimes using a small switch or port splitter to connect these devices can help.
You should also make sure you are using Cat 6 or better cablesfor devices connected to the router.
