This article will guide you what troubleshooting you should do if SSID disappeared on TP-Link router.

 

Step1. Verify whether all of wireless client devices cannot detect TP-Link wireless network.

If your TP-Link router is dual band router and only some of your client devices cannot detect 5G wireless signal of this router, please figure out whether these client devices can detect other 5G wireless signals around your house and make sure they support 5G wireless band.

All of TP-Link wireless routers have wireless signal LED lights in the front panel, they should be always on if SSID is broadcasting correctly. Press wireless/Wi-Fi button at the back set of TP-Link router to let them on if you find wireless LED lights keep off.

 

Step3. Make sure Smart Connect or Hide SSID disabled on TP-Link wireless router.
