  @Hank21 

 

Thanks for the update

 

Its good seeing all the new features and options making there way on to these devices.  Ill set up my test system later and give this firmware a good test

 

Also, despite numerous requests here and in other parts of the forum, can we please get support for TP-Links own dynamic DNS baked into these routers, or at the very least give us the settings we need to input into the new "Custom DNS" option to make it work?  Its super annoying having to have an old Archer C6 at the end of my network whose only job is to update my DDNS

  @Hank21 should the post title be v2.1.0 instead of v2.0.1?

  @Hank21 Is it safe to say that ER605 v1 users won't be receiving any more updates even though they are still available for purchase and it's almost impossible to determine which version you'll receive from most retailers?

  @Hank21 

thank you for this beta version.

 

I tried doing the upgrade online using custom upgrade under Config while still connected to the controller (Utilizing the Connected Time window) I was able to successfully upload the beta file to the ER605 but unable to upgrade it.

 

 

 

I received the following error " Failed to upgrade No devices available to upgrade".

 

 

Appreciate you comments and recommendations

 

Best regards

  @Hank21 

 

Ive been running this for about a day and overnight now, standalone mode.  Nothing weird to report so far.  VPNs inbound and outbound (server and client mode) working, i have a seperate DHCP server on my network so cant test that, but everything else seems OK

 

Just really, really want it to be able to manage my TP-Link DDNS rather than another old router somewhere.

 

The only oddity i found is that sometimes the WAN config page doesnt load properly, but reloading the page fixes it

  @Hank21 With the new firmware the adaption-loop is gone. But another thing is introduced. One or twice a day Omada register that all the network devices are disconnected. Then the ER605v2 (v2_2.1.0_Build 20230117 (Beta)) connect again (says the log), followed with all the network devices (many registrations in the log of connected devices). With firmware 2.0.1. Did it not happen.

  @Hank21 I have a question. Is wireguard client or server? I have a surfshark VPN and I have not been able to connect to it with wireguard, only with OPENVPN but the performance is very low. It seems that it only occupies one CPU core when it has 4 cores. Thanks
