PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Gain an ally in technical support with PRTG’s TP-Link monitoring

TP-Link equipment is known for being reliable and affordable, making it a favorite for home and business networks alike. Still, even the best hardware needs consistent monitoring to keep it running well. That's where Paessler PRTG comes in. It provides a comprehensive way to ensure your TP-Link routers, switches, access points, and other devices are available and performing at their best.

Easy network device integration

Managing and monitoring TP-Link devices across diverse network environments can be complex and time-consuming without a unified, compatible solution.

PRTG has the exact tools to oversee your TP-Link hardware effectively. It works with both everyday and professional TP-Link devices, smart plugs, power adapters, and popular routers, providing a full picture of your network.

Quick installation and setup

Nobody wants to waste time getting a monitoring system up and running. PRTG stands out with its plug-and-play approach so you can begin collecting information from your routers and switches in minutes.

Just enable SNMP on your devices, load the required MIB files, and PRTG will start showing you real-time data on your network's performance.

Beyond the monitoring basics

Basic monitoring tools lack the depth needed to uncover performance bottlenecks, resource inefficiencies, and potential security vulnerabilities in network devices.

Beyond simple checks for connectivity, PRTG tracks important factors such as CPU usage, bandwidth, and unusual network traffic. This detailed oversight helps you spot performance issues, identify resource-intensive processes, and fine-tune your network for better efficiency.

Prevent problems before they start

Prevent issues instead of fixing them after they happen. By constantly monitoring your TP-Link devices, PRTG can detect potential issues and alert you before they impact your users.

If PRTG notices a sudden increase in bandwidth usage on a particular interface, for example, you can identify the cause and take steps before it leads to network congestion. With monitoring the uptime of your TP-Link routers, you can catch connectivity problems that could affect important services.

Custom alerts and notifications

Delayed responses to network issues can risk data loss and more. PRTG's real-time alert system lets you set custom thresholds for important metrics. Receive instant notifications via email, SMS, or push notifications when something unusual does occur.

Take alerts to the next level by customizing your alerts to suit. Create template-based escalation levels and make sure that the right team is informed at the right time.

What TP-Link monitoring looks like in PRTG

Diagnose network issues by continuously tracking the availability, health, and performance of your TP-Link network devices. Show uptime, hardware health, CPU load, memory usage, data traffic, bandwidth usage, and other key metrics in real time. Visualize monitoring data in clear graphs and dashboards to identify problems more easily. Gain the overview you need to troubleshoot all kinds of issues with your TP-Link environment.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

“From a server perspective, we're monitoring all of the key components of our service such as CPU usage, RAM disk space, the Windows services that it's running, and network connectivity of that server. In terms of networks, we’re monitoring all of our switches, firewalls, and access points. It’s really useful to be able to easily pull performance metrics from the PRTG dashboard.”

Ollie Kerslake, Infrastructure Lead
Riverford Organic Farmers

“The tool has given us greater control over all types of devices connected to the network (switches, IP telephony, security cameras, IoT, WiFi) that previously remained opaque when dealing with service incidents. This has improved our ability to diagnose and resolve problems, which has translated into greater efficiency and a better user experience in both internal and public services.”

Jordi Tolosà Bel, New Technologies Technician
Vinaroz City Council

“Our objective was to be able to monitor the health of our most critical servers containing data and applications, but also the flows and bandwidth between headquarters, our 50 servers in the cloud and the 15 servers at our production sites. For us, it is essential to have a proactive approach to understand where the weaknesses of the IT system are to be able to improve them.”

Marc Boullier, CIO
Carambar & Co

TP-Link Monitoring: FAQ

 

What is TP-Link monitoring?

TP-Link monitoring refers to the process of tracking and managing the performance, health, and usage of TP-Link devices within a network. TP-Link is a widely used Chinese brand of networking equipment, including routers, switches, access points, and smart home devices. Monitoring these devices ensures they are operating efficiently, securely, and without interruptions.

Can PRTG monitor both regular and business-grade TP-Link devices?

Yes, PRTG is flexible enough to monitor both consumer-level products like home Wi-Fi routers and professional-grade equipment such as managed switches and enterprise access points.

How does PRTG manage firmware updates for TP-Link devices?

While PRTG doesn't update firmware directly, it tracks the current software version on your TP-Link devices and alerts you when new versions are available, helping you plan and execute updates efficiently.

Can I monitor TP-Link devices alongside equipment from other manufacturers?

Absolutely. PRTG is designed to work with a wide variety of network devices from different brands, including Cisco, Netgear, Juniper, Fortinet, and of course, TP-Link, without compatibility issues. You can monitor your equipment alongside devices from other manufacturers, all from a single, central interface.

What is a sensor in PRTG?

In PRTG, “sensors” are the basic monitoring elements. One sensor usually monitors one measured value in your network, for example the traffic of a switch port, the CPU load of a server, or the free space on a disk drive. On average, you need about 5-10 sensors per device or one sensor per switch port.

We asked: would you recommend PRTG? Over 95% of our customers say yes!

Paessler conducted trials in over 600 IT departments worldwide to tune its network monitoring software closer to the needs of sysadmins. The result of the survey: over 95% of the participants would recommend PRTG – or already have.
