Archer VR2800 failed to connect to Plus Net after firmware upgrade
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I bought this modem router last week. I was able to connect to my ISP (Plus Net in UK) on ADSL2. I then upgraded to the latest firmware (ArcherVR2800(EU)_V1_200710) after which I was unable to connect. After downgrading to the original firmware I was able to connect again.
I am connecting using interface pppoa_0_38_0_d.

There is an updated firmware file available, no notes supplied as I don't use the tplink anymore so cannot test it but others following may do.

@VR400V2 Thanks, but this is for VR400(V3). Nothing yet for VR2800 that I can see

yes my mistake the 2800 one released 03/11/2020 - no supporting notes so could just be a security fix

Well, the latest release works with Plusnet here in the UK so thank you to TP-Link for addressing the problem and to everyone on this and similar threads pushing for a fix. No problems so far although the download speed is a bit below what I normally get but this could be down to Christmas demand with people at home streaming movies and so on.
If there's anything worth reporting on this version then I'll post an update.
Let's see how long before the final (non-beta) version is released.

A new version of the firmware for the VR2800 has now been released - Archer VR2800(EU)_V1_201104
All good so far. Seems to be responsive and works with Plusnet in the UK. Thanks to the folks at TP-Link and hope this version works for everyone.

Hi,
Any updates on this? I have the same issue on my VR900. It looks like a fix has already been pushed out for the VR2800/VR600. Can we get the same treatment?
Regards,
S

Thank you very much for all your kind feedback.
We have already reported the feedback about the Archer VR900 to the senior engineers already and they would release a new firmware to fix this issue very soon;
If there is any further news about the firmware, I would update it here as soon as possible.
