@colefamous 

 

For your device there's a firmware from 2021 - pick the top one from this list.

You can go ahead and update via wireless.

@terziyski hi

I'm using the c54 in range extender mode with the latest update installed.

My problem is tha my main router is using wpa2 security but the extended network of the c54 is only using WPA security ..

My main network is xtrim cali

The extended network is xtrim cali ext.

Any tips to change the extended network of the c54 from WPA to WPA 2?

Or all i can do is wait for a firmware update?

If you're with the latest FW from my first post (EU), It seems that C54 supports even WPA3 with this release:

 

but can't tell why in RE mode the extended network is built with WPA only. I can see this list in the wireless security C54 RE emulator:

 

If you are with the US version, there's a difference - US FW version is older, but can't advise on that either.

@terziyski yeah bro I'm on the EU version using the latest update

I can select wpa3 security using the c54 as my  main router but when i try to use the C54 as range extender the extended network is always on wpa no matter what i do.

Xtrim cali is the main network and Pp-5G is the extended network.

Is there something i can do to change the C54 from WPA to WPA2 security  when i use it in range extender mode  ?

Is there any chance this would be fixed in a future update?

Thanks for you help bro.

@Pepe96ito 

 

What's your main router to which you're connecting C54 ?

There could be a couple of reasons for this behavior - C54 FW or some wireless incompatibility with your main router.

I saw the screenshots and I understand your concern, but I really can't answer your question.

Maybe @Kevin_Z can advise on that.
