@Kevin_Z will we ever get a firmware update with the solution to this problem? Its been more than 2 years, people are complaining on this thread.

I have contacted tp link support many times now and they keep changing the settings and ask me to monitor the behaviour.

Very frequently the internet keeps disconnecting (specially on 2.4GHz band). Its frustrating.

Please provide a fix.

If modifying the wireless settings on the router doesn't help much, please try to update the firmware we provided in the following thread, then disable the Onemesh feature on the router to monitor the connectivity and stability:

@Girithar 

 

In the thread above we provided a newer beta firmware, which allows you to disable Onemesh, you can check if that works for you.

Hi @Kevin_Z 

 

I purchased 3 router TP LINK Archer C6(US) version, all have issue of dropping wifi connection no matter what you do. I have tried below thing but nothing has fixed the issue:- 

1) Tried selecting Wifi Channel setting manually.

2) Tried disabling smart connect

3) Tried setting system parameters for WAN port 100MBPS Full Duplex

4) Tried to use it as Access Point

 

with all above setting it was just losing connection frequently. I am planing to get-in touch with service center now and see if they can fix the problem.

 

My suggestion either you guys replaced our routers with some other similar model or at-least fix the bug via software update.

 

Happy New Year!!!

Thanks and Regards,

@Sagar_A 

 

Hello, do you mean all the three Archer C6(US) have the same issue of dropping the wifi connection? Can you please confirm if it is also 2.4G network, or 5G connection? Have you run a Wi-Fi analyzer to review the wireless signals besides yours? Try choosing a clear wireless channel as the 2.4G may have a lot of interference in your network.

@meryfd hello I read that OpenWRT has problems with Qualcom Atheros QCA9886 ( EU version )chip which is resposible for 5 GHz WiFi in Archer C6 v2. Do You have any problems with that? Which version are You using currently? I was thinking about that OpenWRT but I see some complains on youtube and few forums about that.
