The Windows 10 laptop cannot ping the IP address of the printer, but can successfully ping the IP address of the phone that's connected to the TL-WPA4220 via an Ethernet cable. I *can* reach the web management interface of the printer from a machine connected via WiFi to the router, however. The Windows 10 laptop cannot see or print to the printer even though both are served by the same TL-WPA4220. #3 TL-WPA4530, in living room (not part of the equation here)Īdapters #2 and #3 are both set to serve 2.4GHz and 5GHz WiFi with the same SSID as the router, but use different WiFi channels. #2 TL-WPA4220, in second office, connected via Ethernet to Windows 10 laptop and IP phone, and via 2.4GHz 802.11g WiFi to an HP Laserjet printer. #1 TL-PA4020, in first office, connected via Ethernet to TP-Link Archer C8 router, which serves DHCP and routes to the Internet.
The home-office network has three TP-Link Powerline adapters in total plus a TP-Link Archer C8 router.
I'm wondering if the adapter won't allow traffic between these two machines for some reason. The laptop has a physical Ethernet connection to the adapter the printer is connected via wifi. I'm having problems connecting from a Windows 10 laptop to a networked printer both of which are served by the same TP-Link TL-WPA4220 AV500 powerline adapter on my home-office network.
