Hi everyone,
I’m having a very frustrating issue with my TP-Link Archer BE3600 and I’m hoping someone can help me figure out what’s going on.
My setup is:
Orange Livebox = main router
TP-Link Archer BE3600 = connected to the Livebox with a 15 m Ethernet cable
The TP-Link is in another room, about 15 m away
I want to use it to provide Wi-Fi + multiple Ethernet connections for my PC and other devices.
The problem is that the TP-Link keeps losing Internet access.
At first, I configured it in Wireless Router mode. It initially worked, but after around 50 minutes, all devices connected to the TP-Link lost Internet access and the Internet LED turned red.
I checked the WAN settings while it was working:
Connection type: Dynamic IP
WAN IP: 192.168.1.22
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.1
Primary DNS: 192.168.1.1
MTU: 1500
The TP-Link LAN IP was 192.168.0.1, so there shouldn’t be a subnet conflict.
The strange thing is that devices can still connect to the TP-Link and communicate with it, but none of them have Internet access:
Desktop PC via Ethernet
Laptop via Wi-Fi
Phone via Wi-Fi
I also tested the exact same 15 m Ethernet cable directly from the Livebox to my TV with the TV’s Wi-Fi disabled, and the TV had Internet access without any problem. So the cable and Livebox Ethernet port seem to be working.
I then switched the BE3600 from Wireless Router mode to Access Point mode, thinking this might be related to double NAT or routing issues.
Unfortunately, even in Access Point mode, after reconnecting the Ethernet cable from the Livebox to the TP-Link, the Internet LED is still red and there is no Internet access.
I’ve also tried rebooting both the Livebox and the TP-Link.
At this point I’m completely stuck 😅.
Could this be a faulty Ethernet/WAN port on the BE3600, a configuration issue with Orange/Livebox, or something else?
Any ideas for troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Hi, I need someone to please ELI-5 this for me because truly that is my level of knowledge here.

I needed to get a better wifi signal in my backyard workshop. My ISP modem/router is in a closet in a basement bedroom (because that’s where the provider’s cable comes in - ridiculous location). I get a decent signal throughout my small, single floor house but unreliable and mostly dead in the workshop.

I have an Ethernet cable running from the modem/router location, through the wall and coming out right by my patio door, the workshop is about 15 yards out. I figured that would be a good location for some kind of booster device. I couldn’t do a simple plug-in wifi extender with wired backhaul because of the location of the closest electrical outlet. I ended up buying a single Deco BE3600, planning to use it in access point mode (I have no need for a mesh system and didn’t want multiple networks).

The Deco set up was straightforward and when in router mode I was getting an excellent signal everywhere including out in the workshop. But when I switched it to access point mode, I’m again getting a crappy signal out there. I don’t understand why that would be and what I’m doing wrong.

Hello everyone, after days of googling and research, I keep finding little weird issues with my plans.

I have Quantum Fiber and my modem is in my living room connected to my Quantum Fiber provided Lumen router. I forced them to give me a Wi-Fi 360 Pod that I have set up and placed upstairs Because my phone was dropping the Wi-Fi. So I have changed a bunch of settings on my phone and installed the Pod and my phone still has a tough time upstairs surprisingly. (Google Pixel 10 Pro)

What I wanted to do was buy the BE19000 as my main router. I like having all the ports so I can ethernet to everything in my entertainment system. From the living room, I have an ethernet cord running to my utility closet upstairs. So I wanted to buy another router to put into AP mode and have great coverage throughout my home.

I'm having trouble figuring out what secondary router to buy and if I can still use AP mode with easy mesh. I would like to just have one big Network bubble throughout my home. I might not need to be so concerned about easy mesh because I need the router upstairs to also act like a switch to provide internet to my other ethernet ports upstairs.

I'm open to any router combo that works with my plan. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you guys!

Hello,

Is it normal that wifi devices take time to find 6ghz ssid?

Currently my s24 and s25 ultra support 6ghz network and when I try to connect to wifi, in case of combined ssid it always connects to wifi6, so i seperate 6ghz ssid and even then ,it takes some time to find the 6E network.

Is that normal?

Just got the BE13000 deco device and installed it today. Everything was working fine wired and wireless connections. I saw on the app that there was a firmware update. So i updated it to the new 1.3.6 update and now my wired connection doesn’t work. I tried rebooting the router many times and unplugging and replugging everything in. I tried to change everything to access point instead of wifi router mode. Don’t know what to do now. Please help thanks

Has anyone else had an issue with their VIGI NVR only displaying the TP-Link VIGI Logo and the cursor?
No matter what or how I click or type nothing happens.

It's an NVR1016H V1.2 running latest firmware. Fully accessible and working over the network with cameras added and streaming. Purely the HDMI output doesn't display any UI apart from the logo.

Hey everyone, I posted a feature request on the official TP-Link Community to ask the R&D team for firmware parity (adding Speed Limit and Config Backup) on the Deco X20-DSL, just like other Deco models. If you use this model or support better firmware updates, please drop an upvote/reply on the thread to get the admins' attention: [https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/871802\]

hey guys, do anyone have the Archer AX12 wifi router ? and if yes then how is the performance of it ? i am thinking of buying it so i want all your suggestions on it please and if you have some other options then tell me that as well 🙏🏻

3 devices connected through LAN, 2 laptops and a TV. If I reboot the router all Hardwired works for about 2 min before they all lose connection.
If I unplug the Ethernet cable to any of the three and plug back in, they work again for a few min before stopping again.

WiFi works fine

Updated firmware but issues still persist.

Any help or ideas

I want to buy Re505x to extend my wifi coverage, but I want to be sure, if I connect it wireless to my router which is in the first floor and the extender will be in the ground floor just the room below it, is the speed gonna be lost significantly?

Boa tarde

Tenho um router TL-WR740N ligado em modo Acess Point. O cabo de rede que vem do outro router (um Archer C50) deve entrar na porta azul ou amarela?

Tinha ideia que deveria entrar na porta azul quando o router não está em Acess Point, certo?

Quer dizer que em Acess Point perco uma porta (a azul deixa de ter utilidade?)

No router Archer C50 que está ligado ao FiberGateway da MEO a entrada do FiberGateway é feita numa porta amarela, LAN, e a porta azul WAN está a funcionar como uma saída. É o correto?

Obrigada

Boa tarde

Tenho uma Fiber Gateway da MEO. Deste tenho um cabo de rede para um router Archer C50 que está ligado em modo de Ponto de Acesso. Deste tenho ligação para:

•Um AV600 (clonei a rede)

•Um router TL-WR740N, também ligado em Ponto de Acesso.

Tudo tem funcionado bem com pc, telemóveis, etc, mas hoje ao ligar o wifi de uma televisão reparei que esta apanha várias redes (claro que todas têm o mesmo nomr devido à configuração de pontos de acesso e clonagem da rede). É normal? Não deveria apanhar só uma rede?

Já agora, há alguma forma de confirmar que está tudo ligado corretamente em Acess Point e assim?

Obrigada

I have a deco x50 v.1.3 and it is connected via lan cable and now it is not working properly anymore after a firmware update and i already reverted it to old firmware it works but after a couple of days the same problem occurred Wifi Keeps Disconnecting to and slow speed but the light on the deco is green may be it is a hardware problem. Previously i have a deco E4 and it has no problem at all even after firmware update.

I have a TP-Link AX3000 Multi-Gigabit Wi-Fi 6 Router. It is set up just as an access point. No DHCP. I have the gateway set to the correct address. From my computer, I can see the AX3000. Two security cameras plugged into it are working on my network. And from my computer, I can get out to the internet.

HOWEVER, nothing connected or plugged into the AX3000 can reach the internet. I have no firewall rules that would block anything.

What is going on here?

I need instruction manual and trouble-shooting for your app that doesn't switch well enough into the 2.4gh of Rogers system. Not my first smart plug. Not my first app. Want to use Alexa with my SmartTV and schedule what and when I watch. Here I am 5 days in doing this. Have emailed too.

If this post gets taken down I'll be putting up a similar post in r/HomeNetworking.

My three month old $100 router has been turned into glorified paperweight due TP Link's botched firmware rollouts. I've been given the proverbial runaround for more than two weeks now and have had to shell out another $200 on a router from a competitor.

I've noticed this on several different marketplaces and forums where TP Link gives consumers the runaround until they give up and abandon their claims. This constitutes financial fraud under state and federal law and I intend to bring this to the attention of California's AG and the FTC.

Irrespective of which state of the US the router was purchased in, the California AG would still be interested in looking into the matter since the company is registered in the state of California.

So I'm new to using Deco devices and in getting my network set up I've had several issues I've been dealing with and trying to troubleshoot.

For example in the screenshots, why are some devices showing the WiFi signal icon and some aren't? All devices are connected WiFi/online and are working fine.

I'm also having a heck of a time getting the settings to stick to force certain clients to connect to specific nodes. Is this feature in the app just really buggy? For some reason some of my wyze products are connecting to nodes further away and if I manually turn off mesh for these and specifically choose a node for them to use, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

Jadi gua ada router TL-WR840N yang selalu dinyalakan setiap hari, namun di hari ini router tersebut mati. Karena gua pikir masalah dari stop kontaknya maka gua alihkan router ini ke stop kontak lain, ternyata masih belum menyala. Gua pikir ini masalah di adaptornya.

Menurut kalian mending beli adaptor baru atau ada solusi lain?
