# tplinkrouter Binding

The tplinkrouter Binding allows monitoring and controlling TP-Link routers.

The binding uses a telnet connection to communicate with the router.

At the moment only wifi part is supported and TD-W9970 is the only model tested. This binding may work with other TP-Link router provided that they use the same telnet API.
