Chime Pro unable to connect to TP Link router

My chime pro 2 worked fined for 10 months or so, and then 2 weeks ago it disconnected from the router, despite no network changes by me. I tried resetting etc but that didn't work, so ring support sent out a replacement, which had the same issue. The whole time all my other devices including my ring doorbell worked fine.
Speaking again to support they said it was a known new issue with Chimes being unable to connect to TP Link routers and it would be fixed within a few days.
Are there any updates on this, as 2 weeks later it still won't connect. Currently stuck with a £50 chime that for 3 months only sometimes rang, and now won't connect at all! Why do ring keep breaking these things?? I don't want to have to keep my phone on me and unsilenced just to be able to hear the doorbell ring!

@Caitlyn_Ring,
Is it possible to get any more updates about this issue with TP Link? Phone support have said they can't do anything and I just need to wait for it to be fixed, but its been 6 weeks now and it is still very inconvenient not being able to actually know when the doorbell is pressed unless I keep my phone on me and on loud at all times.

I was able to connect to the internet via my laptops mobile hotspot, and after a while it picked up a firmware update that fixed this issue. Not sure when the firmware update was pushed but I tried to do the same thing last week and it didn't work. Either way if anyone elses is bricked like mine hopefully that should fix it!

I lost weeks to this and finally solved it. For some reason the chime firmware does not like “high” IP addresses. My router was set to issue IP addresses in the range of XXXX.x and actually ended up at XXXX.XXXX.
I change the IP range on my router to be XXXX.x and also assigned the chime a fixed IP address of XXXX.4 (nice and low for good measure). Now works a charm.
