It would be really helpful if you could provide more detail on what you did so we could understand. Ideally a step by step of what you did would give us the most clarity.
and from mikrotik you must change the tp-link 901 mac address from ip -- arp (find 192.168.1.1 and change the mac to the mac written on the tp-link 901 label behind )
now try to open 192.168.1.1 from browser and change the lan ip to any ip and the device will be normal
i tried to connect tp-link 901 by cable to mikrotik and change the mac but not work
i think that the problem was because the access generate different mac to lan
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I'm still not following the setup. Let me ask a few questions to see if I can clarify.
1. Why are you connecting the router to the first wireless device?
2. How are the two wireless devices connecting?
2a. Are you using the first link to connect to the second as a wireless repeater or client?
2b. Are you treating the 901 as the primary router?
3. Where and why are you changing the mac address?
3a. is it the address on the 901, if so, how?
Sorry if these are noob question but my goal is to understand the setup in detail. Vague is not good when it comes to fireware.
Thanks again for taking the time. Really helps everyone on the thread if we can spell this out.
I've made a little progress with this but I havn't actually used dd-wrt before and I am now stuck. Instruction to get into the web interface via wireless for windows 7:
Turn on your TL-WA901ND v2 without LAN connected.
Connect via wireless.
Start a command prompt with administrators privileges (start>all programs>accessories>right click command prompt and run as administrator).
Type arp -a to get a list of what ip's are attached to what mac's.
Type netsh -c "interface ipv4" (with quotation marks) and will get the new prompt netsh interface ipv4>
Open network and sharing center and note the connection name. Mine is "Wireless Network Connection"
Check the bottom of your TL-WA901ND v2 for its mac address.
Type in command prompt set neighbors "Wireless Network Connection" "192.168.1.1" "F8-B1-11-BF-**-**" Note quotation marks and substitute F8-B1-11-BF-**-** with your own mac.
type exit to get back the normal command prompt and type arp -a again and make sure there is now the right mac against 192.168.1.1
Open browser and then open the web interface by typing 192.168.1.1
This is now where I am stuck. I dont know how to set the correct mac in dd-wrt for LAN.

I am just wondering, there weren't any official announcement regarding the firmware and the only hint was that "a" file labelled for v2 is on the FTP server, yet people install the firmware (which clearly doesn't work right).

Did anyone hear any official word about this ?
i didn´t saw anything, but there´s a new version, dated 4 days later from the one posted 2 pages back.
That's my point though - database still only says v1 and just because v2 is on the ftp server, I wouldn't jump straight on it but rather wait for the official tests to be done. But I guess some people like to tinker

These builds are stated for testing purposes.
There are some risks, everybody knows that, but if they are safe (non brick issues) i guess many folks are willing to try (me included).
