Archer C6 V2 Firmware 1.3.0 EU - WiFi drops every few minutes after firmware upgrade
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hi,
I've updated my Archer C6 (v2.0) UK router to the latest firmware (1.3.0 Build EU 20200402 rel.52000). I'm fairly sure the old version was 1.2.1. After upgrading I've noticed all wireless (5Ghz & 2.4Ghz) clients randomly and continuously get dropped from the WiFi (I can see this happening on the devices and in the router's System Logs as DHCP requests). The drop affects one or more devices, every 1 or 2 minutes.
After discovering the problem I tried changing most settings to match those on https://emulator.tp-link.com/c6-eu-v2/index.html just to make sure it's not my configuration.
Is anyone else finding this issue with their C6 router using the new firmware?
The firmware release notes also say it's not downgradable, is this true?

How many devices are connected to the C6 2.4G network? Are they disconnecting at the same time? Are they any error message when they failed to reconnect?
You can also disable the NAT boost on the web interface (Advanced-System Tools-System Parameters), then monitor again.
The latest 1.3.x version cannot be downgraded to the previous 1.2.x version, while we will report the issue to the engineers, they will likely to contact you via email.

What I meant was:
I'm from Brazil and a US version of the C6 router is sold here.
My router connected to 2.4ghz but after 10 minutes it crashed as it connected, it was without internet. Freezing videos on Facebook and Instagram. They didn't carry and like images too.
I installed the Wi-Fi Analyzer and he pointed out that it had 1 hidden network and another "AP + several numbers" network that changed the channel when I changed the channel on my wi-fi network. I found this strange, because the channel was always exactly the same. So think "this router has another SSID that I did not put."
So I researched and found this forum.
Install Firmware and Disable Wifi Mesh.
I was no longer supporting this problem.
I installed the beta today and, so far, I have no problem.
It seems to have solved my problem.
Thank you very much.
I am very happy.
