Hi guys, using Simens C2110 modem + TPlink WR740N router on windows 7 desktop. (BSNL BROADBAND) . Recently power adapter of both modem was burnt because of high voltage. So I changed both adapter.

Now I m facing new problem, I did factory reset TPLINK router, and entered old same settings. I am able to access internet on desktop using Lab cable and on cellphone using WiFi.

If I shutdown my PC then WiFi also stops working on cellphone , even its showing WiFi connected.

If I switch ON desktop , then WiFi works fine on cellphone. How to change this setting ? I can't keep my desktop ON whole day for using WiFi cinnection. Before this it was working fine. After factory reset its behaving like this.

have you tried cloning the mac address of your pc to the modem/router?

No , I didn't... should I do that ?

After 15 hr of struggle now its working.

I flashed WWDRT firmware before, but it was so confusing , also didn't worked for me. Neither wired internet nor wireless, then I flashed TPLINK f/w from wwdrt site, that also didn't worked for me.Then I flashed f/w from TPLINK website.

And its now working..

Guys, I have one more query, I have extra TENDA N3 mini router , how to make it work like repeater ? I tried YouTube tutorial but it didn't worked for me. Can anybody tell me the easiet method ?
