Re:Early Release Firmware Adding EasyMesh Ethernet Backhaul for Archer C80/C64/A8

  hi @Kevin_Z,

 

The name of the firmware seems to have isseus ( c80v2-up-noboot_2023-07-05_18.52.09.bin )

I renamed it to c80v2-2023-07-05. bin and that worked.

 

The watermark in this Beta spoils the joy of it.

 

The sattelite C80 does'nt update after updating the main??

 

 

Regards,

 

Thom

I did refer to the BR firmware, looking at the support page it lacks a lot  ( versions of the FW )

 

Thanks for the Beta link, i wil give it a go wink

@Thom_NL 

 

Which firmware do you refer to?

 

BTW, our development team has provided a pre-released version of firmware for Archer C80, and I have just published it below, you can check if you're interested:

Pre-Released Firmware Supports DoH and IoT Network for Archer C80 is Ready for Trial

 

Do let me know if this version meets your requirements or if there is an issue with it. I'm always happy to assist.  

 

Please make sure you're tagging me or Sunshine if you want a direct response timely.

I was finally able to test EasyMesh with Ethernet backhaul on two Archer C80s. Both are HW v2.20, so I upgraded the FW to the latest.

 

First I connected all devices to the main C80, then defined the secondary C80 as a satellite router from the web GUI.

 

First, the satelite device was not found by the main router, so I connected it just to power near the main unit and this helped. I got one mesh device, but over wireless backhaul.

Turned the satelite unit off, connected it with a RJ45 to the WAN port and powered it on. After not so short time, the main router found the satelite in the EasyMesh settings, full connection which seemed over cable. So far so good, BUT whenever the satellite router is ON, the connection get very laggy and unstable, I get warning messages on most of the internet dependend software on my desktop, which is also connected over rj45 to the main router. Whenever I switch it off - internet connection works very smooth.

 

Any ideas what I might try to work around this slowness? @Kevin_Z @Thom_NL 

 

@g3n0  Please try resetting the satellite C80 to factory defaults, then connect one of its LAN ports to the LAN port of the main C80 (LAN - LAN), check again if they can build up the EasyMesh Ethernet Backhaul automatically. You can check the connection status either on the web GUI or via Tether App.

 

After they build up the mesh network successfully, please check again if you can get the desired speed.

@Neikon Neither AX53 nor AX10 supports EasyMesh Ethernet Backhaul at the moment. They can only build up the mesh network via wireless at the moment.

 

Or you can configure the AX10 as an Access Point (Here is the guide), then connect it to the main AX53 with an Ethernet cable to get a dedicated wired connection between the two.

  Hi @g3n0,

 

What you can do 

 

Update all devices, if not done 

Then reset the satellite.

 

Press WPS on the main, then on the satellite.

The satellite should be connected to the main by the WAN port.

 

 

Good luck,

 

Thom
