TP-Link TL-WA701ND Manual
TP-Link Access Point Setup
1 Overview
The TP-Link TL-WA701ND is a multi-function access point. This document is intended to assist with con-
figuring the TL-WA701ND to allow the EG3000 to communicate on an existing WiFi network. This guide is
designed only for use with a TP-WA701ND purchased through eGauge Systems.

2 Configuration instructions
1. Power the TP-Link TL-WA701ND using the barrel jack or PoE (Power-over-Ethernet) injector, and
connect a computer to the access point using an Ethernet cable (if using the PoE injector, connect the
LAN port to your computer, and the POE port to the access point).
2. Ensure all wireless interfaces are disabled on the computer (such as WiFi and Bluetooth) and that
DHCP is enabled on the Ethernet interface. Open a web browser and access the TL-WA701ND by
entering 192.168.0.254 into the address bar.
3. Log in using username admin and password admin.

6. Click Survey to scan for a list of available wireless access points. Alternatively, skip to step 8and
manually enter information.
7. From the list of available WiFi networks, select the network to use by clicking Connect to the far right.
Make sure the network has a good connection by checking the signal strength. The higher the number,
the stronger the connection.

8. Once the Connect option is clicked, these fields will automatically fill in. Alternatively, enter the
Wireless Name (SSID) and Wireless Security Mode and Wireless Password. The wireless security
settings will need to be manually entered for any password protected WiFi network. Click Next.

9. The default values are typically fine for these settings. If needed, obtain the correct settings from the
network administrator. Be sure to make a note/take a screenshot of the IP address set in this step, as it
will replace the original fallback IP address. When the correct settings have been applied, click Next.

10. Make a note or take a screenshot of the applied settings if desired, then click Save.
11. The device will reboot. The configuration page will likely not load; try loading a web-page (e.g.,
http://www.egauge.net) while the TP-Link Access Point is connected to the computer to see if
there is Internet connectivity.

12. After the configuration is complete and Internet access is confirmed, connect the TP-Link WA701ND
to the eGauge using an Ethernet cable. From there, follow steps for checking eGauge connectivity.
Once the eGauge is connected to the proxy-server, the eGauge status LED should blink between dark
blue and off.
3 Troubleshooting
•The TP-Link TP-WA701ND does not have any LEDs illuminated
→Ensure the access point has power either directly to the barrel jack on the back, or via the POE
injector’s POE Ethernet port. The POE injector requires power via barrel jack.
→Verify the ON/OFF button next to the access point’s Ethernet port is depressed in the ON posi-
tion.
•I cannot access the device configuration page.
→The TP-Link WA701ND has a default fallback IP address of 192.168.0.254. To access the
device configuration pages, connect a computer directly via an Ethernet cable, configure the computer
to use an IPv4 address in the same range (for example, 192.168.0.100), open a web browser, and
enter the fallback IP address of 192.168.0.254 in the address bar. If you changed the IP address
on the Network Setting page during configuration step 9, use that IP address instead.
•I cannot access the device at all (lost credentials, major configuration issue, etc)
→The TP-Link TL-WA701ND has a recessed reset button located on the back of the device. This
button is closest to the antenna, and a pin or paperclip is needed to press it. Hold the button down for
8+ seconds. All of the LEDs should turn off and back on; after this the initial configuration steps can
be used to gain access. Note that this will reset all device settings to the factory default.
