Hi all,

i own 2 new unit of TPLINK TL-WR1043ND.
since i m out of IP address, i need these wireless router to expand my network IPs.

My network environment,
1st unit of wireless router is setup as
WAN : Static IP (192.168.0.230)
LAN : DHCP range from (192.168.10.2~200)
Wireless : ON (Channel 1)

2nd unit of wireless router is setup as
WAN : Static IP (192.168.0.231)
LAN : DHCP (192.168.20.2~200)
Wireless : ON (Channel 6)

others settings leave as default.

<the IPs i use to extend is 192.168.0.230 & 192.168.0.231>

My Problem is :
I cant run 2 unit of wireless router together, only one by a time(if i m lucky,it may not crash for few hours).
if i ON either one unit...there is no problem at all, they working perfect.

PLS HELP.....am i missing some steps??:banghead:

forget to say, it only crash if someone is running the wireless.
just cable on LAN, there is no crash issue.

how are you bridging them, wired or via WDS? my TP link wifi units seem to crash using WDS as well.

i connect both wireless router to the network switch via cable.
i didnt use WDS since each wireless router is located at different floors

any advice?

update to the latest firmware, try channels 1 and 11, disable error logging in the routers.
