Firmware Version: 1.0.11

Hey!

 

I have an AX50, I have changed my channel number on 5ghz to channel 60. Yet when i look at the channel number on my devices it says I'm on channel 42.
I had this issue on older TP-link routers. Can anybody tell me the reason my channel settings cannot be changed from 42?

The AX50 switching to channel 36 after some time is a known issue for this router model.

 

Maybe try again to set it to one of the DFS channels and then observe it for a while with the Wireless scanner on your phone. It actually should broadcast on the selected channel for a while (could be an hour or even a day), before it switches back to channel 36.  (it actually occupies CH 36 through 48, because it's using 80 MHz channel width)
