Hello @Joselio

 

I honestly do not have an answer for that. We don't get advanced notice of whether there will be new updates being released or when a feature update will be available. The way we do firmware is that we only release a new version when there is a bug/flaw/vulnerability to patch or a new feature to add, but since I am not in software development, I can't give you a clear answer. I suggest you keep an eye on the official website for any new firmware updates if there would be any.

  @Kevin_Z 

Dear Kevin_Z

There is a flaw in the router. I don't know if it can be patched by firmware. But the router is announced as a Dual band AND multi mode. 

But it is not a dual band extender as it can not extend a 5G wifi network. It only extends 2.4Ghz networks. Yes it provides 2.4 and 5G extensions of the 2.4 host network. But that does not fulfill the Dual Band extender mode.

https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/162420

Also the firmware emulator looks like it does extend both 2.4 and 5G, but the installed firmware does not behave like the emulator.
https://emulator.tp-link.com/archerc58hp_un_re/src/index.html


I guess it can be solved by firmware update.

This is a very important flaw.
It looks like a dishonest advertising . You are selling a dual band thing but you are not provideing such a thing.
Archer C20 instead, a lower level  and cheaper router does indeed extend both networks (once at time, but it does it).

It is expected Archer C58HP to have more capabilities than Archer c20, not less!!

Thank you

@elzorro 

 

Thank you very much for reporting the WDS configuration issue on the Archer C58HP. 

 

I have reported this concern to the engineering team, they will confirm and evaluate if there is a possibility to optimize the WDS configuration. While there is no definitive information if it would be possible or be available in the future, it is suggested to keep an eye on the official website to get more updates.
