  @Liverpool20 hi there,

 

I have used 2 C80 routers to create a Mesh wireless system laugh

 

* Update* 

Now i have 3 C80 'Routers'  as a working mesh network.

Good day,

 

Now I used the hammer wink

 

AP disconnected, Main router reset.

Then set the desired network and WiFi ( Channels still not editable To change the channel disable Smart connect). 

Then reset the AP. Reconnected without any settings.

 

After that, pressed the main router WPS button and within 2 minutes also on the other "Router".

 

Both C80 'routers' are now connected via Ethernet Backhaul as a Mesh network.

The second neatly as a node with the settings of the main router.

 

Short version, two C80 routers can be used as a Mesh network.

This may apply to other types of TP, Onemesh / Easymesh.

 

 

Regards,

 

Thom

@Kevin_Z,

 

An automatic update was attempted, but the system listed firmware for the V1 version.

Bit weird because I have V2.20 so I did the manual way of updating.

In addition, I cannot change the wireless channels? I have 1 C80 as router and 1 C80 as AP. Still not working properly (Settings / Ethernet backhaul)

 

 

Regards,

 

Thom

Regarding the new firmware for Archer C80 v2.20, you can check for updates on the router web interface page or via the Tether App as described below:

We will report to the local website admins to publish the new firmware ASAP.

Same issues. I have an AX73 as a main router and a C80 as satellite One. The only way to make them work together was by pressing the WPS button on both. I tried the other way and to enter in configuration of the main router (AX73) but was impossible. Only after WPS was showing the C80 attached in the One Mesh, and showing me the clients connect.

 

I was using the guest network to connect only my IoT devices but I had to stopped doing it since it was impossible to activate the guest network in the satellite router (C80).

 

2weeks a go, I manage to put ethernet wire through my walls (just around 50meters) to connect both routers and looks like everything was good and everything work nicely for a couple days but I started having problems since I want to check again if the issue was solved and I tried again to activate the guest network and to change other stuff and the connection stopped working till I unplugged the satellite router (C80). I had to restart it and did the same WPS process to make it work again before be able to connect through ethernet again.

 

@RoodRood Can you explain in detail why you cannot add the satellite router via EasyMesh? When you logged into the web GUI of the main router, will you be able to find the satellite router? Please check and install the latest firmware on both routers.

 

Regarding the Guest Network, it has been discussed previously on this thread that EasyMesh doesn't support extending the Guest Network at the moment.
