Possible that no one people have seen this ghost network?

@Robynbra 

That is possibly Onemesh.

when will there be a new beta version?

@Robynbra thank you for your help. But if I select Band 20 and I don't have Band 20 in the antenna near to me how it can work? :D

If I use 20 and 1 it connects only to 1.

The problem is that actually I have Bands 1 and 3 and they don't work together. My smartphone connects to 4G+ with these two bands, the MR600 connects only to 1 or only to 3.

Look the other thread!

@darant 

I wrote to the support via email, it is useless to waste time on an unmonitored forum.

If they don't reply in time, I will return the modem to Amazon and take a Huawei model.

I paid 180 euros for MR600 + Mesh kits when at 100 euros I could have purchased a Huawei with the same characteristics that allows you to join bands 1 and 3 (according to what reported in the reviews).

I had chosen TP-Link because I was satisfied with other devices in the house but I obviously made a wrong choice.

@Piersandro I do understand your frustration with the lack of carrier aggregation on bands 1+3. A hardware choice has been made, and this combination isn't available. For sure, most users won't understand these nuances and will not understand why the router is not performing as they hoped.

I have been running the MR600 for a few weeks now on the beta firmware and have found it to be faultless. I get 4G+ on bands 3+20 and have never needed to restart the router.

I have also been testing a Huawei B535 - and you're correct that this supports bands 1+3 - but for me I have found it to provide inferior performance on bands 3+20, and it is is incredibly fussy about positioning.

Getting a good 4G signal is not easy. Some people have more luck with the B535 and some with the MR600. Forums show that people have problems with both and it really seems to be the case that trial and error is involved. Those with good ADSL and fibre connections don't know how lucky they are!

Good luck in finding a solution 😀

@dgr1 so the missing 1/3 aggregation is it an hardware problem and cannot be corrected via a new firmware upgrade?

This is a very bad news.
