TP Link toggle: TL-WN725N does not connect to Netgear Nighthawk RAX120

Dear Community

 

I have a challenge and I do not understand what the issue could be. Hope one of you can help me.

 

The situation is the following

 

- I have an RAX120 Netgear Router

- I have bought a machine which only works with a TP Link nano USB Toggle ref: TL-WN725N (for now it is unfortunately a fact so I need to connect  this toggle to the router.)

 

The nano link does not connect to my Netgear Router. The toggle sees other networks but it does not see my netgear router neither the 2.4ghz oder the 5ghz network.

 

I have no clue what the reason could be but hope some one in the community does?

 

regards

Marco

    Thank you for taking the time to answer. In the mean time I have found the (simple) answer. The toggle from TP Link only works wiht WPA (and not WPA2) ,so I had to change my security settings that is all..in the end :-)
