Hi thanks.. I am trying this new beta firmware.. Having 4 ssids for 2.4,5ghz, 6ghz and MLO.. Currently MLO (2.4+5+6ghz) is stable, so far it works nicely as the speeds are somehow ard 6ghz channel speed or higher. .. However if I connect to ssid of 5ghz or 6ghz and come back to mlo ssid.. The mlo ssid speed is very slow.. Like 2.4ghz. I need to reboot the router and forget all other ssid except MLO one to gain back the speed. Using speedtest to test speed.
Still feel MLO (2.4+5+6) sometime the speed strucked at 2.4ghz speed.. Now using MLO(5+6) only
Hello @Toperr, thank you for testing out the new pre-release firmware for the BE805 and providing your valuable feedback.
Regarding the MLO Network speed concern, could you please specify the device(s) you're using to test the MLO speed?
Please disable the 2.4G band for the MLO Network and test the speed again.
BTW, what is the network bandwidth you paid for your internet?
@Kevin_Z yes I already disabled the 2.4 for MLO.. Now only using MLO (5+6ghz) with ZTE Z70 ultra phone. Only device I have that support MLO. Mine internet plan is 6gbps.
Hello @Toperr, I discussed with the engineering team, and it appears that you've already been in contact with them. I suggest you continue discussing with them and try to work it out.

Upgraded to firmware 1.2.4 for my BE805.
Speed for 6G is able to reach 9XXmbps which is near my ISP link speed of 1gbps.
Nice.
Can I confirm MLO is able to work in easymesh mode as my BE805 is currently configured as satellite to my BE800 for this current firmware?
It seems like if I connect to MLO ssid .. my phone will only connect to BE800 whereas if connect to 6g ssid .. my phone can connect to either be805 and be800.

@PandaJas Thank you very much for your feedback. I'm happy to see that the 6G speed is now good.
EasyMesh currently doesn't work between MLO Networks, and it only works between the main network. I believe EasyMesh will be optimized in the future.
