I have two MR600s... both are:

 

Firmware Version:1.1.0 0.9.1 v0001.0 Build 190412 Rel.66770n 

Hardware Version:Archer MR600 v1 

 

Earlier this year they both worked flawlessly but over the last two weeks both are randomly disconnecting from the 4G network multiple times a day. I takes a reboot or a off/on for them to reconnect. 

 

Is there a TP-Link person that can help with this issue?

It looks like a slightly different problem, as my MR600 doesn't lose 4G... 
Does your router shows no 4G signal?

The 4G+ light stays on but if you run Fast.com for example it just hangs. When you log on to the router it says connecting and then says "disconnected" with a message about if it continues contact your ISP. After a reboot it generally reconnects - or sometimes it needs a power off. The original ISP data for my ISP (Free in France) specified IPv4 only, I've changed that to IPv4 & IPv6 and as it connects no problem after a reboot I doubt it's any ISP info problem. Two things occur to me, is it too much traffic on the 4G network that's causing it to drop (possible because due to Covid everyone is working from home and kids are probably playing games), if so why doesn't immediately try and automatically reconnect?

I have a MR600 as well and it worked ok on the wireless but I needed better coverage so I bought 3pc of RE305  to connect in a onemesh and then my devices started to drop the internet connection and video calls got interrupted unless I was close to the router so there seems to be some problem with it.

I have it set to smart connect and have two RE305 at the moment that are in onemesh configuration with the MR600.

I hope this is a firmware issue they can solve.

@Mozart I'm having exactly the same problem out of the box.

 

the WiFi works fine to a single windows laptop. It initially works ok to phones (iPhone and android, and Sony TV), but then the WiFi just stops working to all devices except the laptop.

 

(I've noticed that the 4G is hanging at times also)

 

When I connect up an old 2.4/5ghz WiFi hotspot to the archer with , I can usually get access to the internet though that hotspot, but still not the Archer.

 

I'm thinking I'm going to have to return the Archer... I can't easily see the same combination of features on another device, but this will be a deal breaker for me.

 

It's extremely frustrating. Had also been considering buying the TP-link mesh product, but can't now.

 

Does the device need a firmware fix?

I have this same setup, MR600 and RE305, and it just seems to hang at times. It is really frustrating. Are there any recommended settings that can be changed. Really quite annoyed as it does seem worse when the RE305 is switched on. It worked really well for the first few weeks.

According me is the Mesh network....ghost network that will come out and after few second disappeared!

 

The Tp-link tecnichal must add in the new firmware one button to close this network!

 

In this way probably the wifi connection exspecially the wifi 2,4ghz will be good!

Facing similar problem . Wifi clients lose connection for few minutes and then when I get connected and check system logs nothing strange found.

 

Can anyone share the debug firmware so that I can share the logs .

@arbytronic to add more detail, wired connections are totally fine. No hanging at all. It is just WiFi connections, even when sat next to the router. It's the same on all devices, windows/Mac laptops, tablets, phones.

Therfore this isn't an issue with 4G to the router, it is purely the internal WiFi.
