I have already reported to TP-Link with a reference to your screenshots in this thread, so let's see if they find out something.

Hello Darren!

Thanks for the reply! Concerning your offer, if a stable patch is quick enough (a couple days) then I can wait. But on the other hand, if it takes a couple months for it to be properly tested by QA and whatnot, then sure, send me a link of the current beta version that addresses this issue!

Thank you!

Hello Darren, I have received your beta firmware and I have been using it for 4 days now (since Friday 3 aug) and so far the issue is being supressed

One thing I've noticed is that the ICMP traffic seems to have been blocked in this beta fw.

I have remote hosts working without problems and going to the internet and whatnot, but I simply cannot ping them from within the same VLAN.

Care to pass along this message? It worked fine up until now. EDIT: Now being the day of the fw upgrade.

I use ICMP for functions like keepalive and such so it's a minor issue, but might be worth looking into it.

Hi,

 

I have the same problem, but with 3 EAP225-Outdoor (FW 1.3.0) in an outdoor mesh network. The root AP's 5G radio is set to auto with channel limit. It starts with channel 100 after reboot, but then randomly switches to a channel < 100 after a while. The wireless APs lose connection and usually don't reconnect until I reboot the root AP.

 

So far this is a field test on a camping ground, and it works well as long as the channel does not change. We would now like to order a few more EAPs, but first need a fix for the problem. Darren, could you please also send me the beta FW?

This is an old thread but I'm looking forward for an answer here.

Is there's any update with this problem? 

Did someone fix or solve this?  I really _ _ _ _ with this device.

The 2 EAP225-Outdoor(US) always go to channel 36(5G). Even the other EAP or the EAP320 work properly. I disable the firewall and the antivirus, thinking that is the reason behind it, but still nothing still error.

 

Any answer from 2018 thread to 2019, UPDATES?

I installed the EAP225 outdoor and it keeps disconnecting. Is there a firmware update that fixes this or should I open ports on the firewall? If I do a reset on the switch it shows up 

but disconnects after a minute one the controller shows connected.

If the Outdoor APs are meshed, update all nodes to the same (latest) firmware. Also be aware that DFS can request changing certain channels, but meshed APs will follow then.
