TP Link Power line Adapter won't WPS pair with Virgin Hub

[Dannyboy96]

Devices: Virgin Hub 3 and TP-LINK WPA4220

The power line Adapter works fine for Ethernet however the built in wifi range extender won't connect to the Hub 3.0 with WPS.

I know the WPS isn't faulty on the hub as the tv box was set up using WPS yesterday and I know the TP-LINK isn't faulty as it worked a couple of days ago at my old place.

Is this a known issue with TP-Link extenders or am I doing something wrong?

Hi, I had a similar issue and this worked for me:

I followed the basic TP link instructions but it didn’t work with the Virgin Hub 3. So I went to the Virgin hub settings page:

http://192.168.0.1

Advanced Settings > Wireless > WPS

At the bottom it has a button to Add WPS Client. I pressed this while doing the TP link procedure and it worked.

Hope that helps someone!

Don’t use WPS.  Use the admin console on the TP-Link.  It’s all in the manual and easy to do.
